#A way to see event/staff vehicles in livery viewer (password system)

Problem:
As more event/staff vehicles are getting added, dev/event plane owners need a proper way to see liveries for them. Adding them to livery viewer is not a good idea because other players will be able to play around with them.

Solution:
I suggest adding a password system (like with ATC event servers) so staff and event plane owners can make liveries without having to pay for applying it. Because sometimes it takes 5-10 attempts to make a good livery, and uh i think that applying a livery on a staff/event aircraft is more expensive than on a public aircraft.

It could be done by adding a window where you have to type in a password which is either made up by a dev who spawns event planes in players’ hangars or by the game (displayed in maintenance window)(it requires more work to be done).

Pros:

  • making liveries for staff/event vehicles will be easier
    Cons:
  • too much work for such a feature ig

Having the ability to view event planes on the viewer if you own it is a fair idea, though couldn't you just try out the livery in Aero and not hit apply?

#

maybe try reading it again?

#

i forgor to include an important thing so uh i think i know why it got denied

This is a result of a recent change that moved vehicles being stored clientside (you) to the server (roblox). This greatly reduces loading times because each vehicle no longer has to be loaded by your computer when you join the game.

The downside is that Roblox has not yet implemented the ability for us to specify properties of the aircraft models stored server-side. This includes models when displayed both in the dealership and cross-server stream aircraft. Normally, the parts you see as invisible or see-through are marked as double-sided. This issue does not affect the vehicle in question once you spawn it normally in-game.

This issue will slowly (slowly) be rectified through model updates.

Not even the right ?bug but alr deado

graceful yew
#

?

#

isnt it?

kind sun
#

It’s about missing textures and back/double faces

graceful yew
#

that's one of the problems why no one does that

kind sun
#

Does what

kind sun
#

Knowing how much current viewer is outdated kinda speaks how… uh, active work on viewer is

#

But again, imo event one, as public planes, should be there anyway

#

With some mark that they’re event ones however

#

Similar to how gen2 marked with green color

graceful yew
#

maybe a different folder for them?

pseudo geyser
#

idk

#

or blue?

pseudo geyser

"where can i buy this aircraft" ahh thread

queen ivy
#

either the livery maker is skilled enough to make a livery from the UV alone, or the commissioner has to log on every time the livery maker wants to test sth on the UV

ocean shadow
#

we used to make liveries without livery viewer bro

message

#

please

#

im tired of repeating that

queen ivy
#

i think that applying a livery on a staff/event aircraft is more expensive than on a public aircraft

#

depends on the aircraft

#

some aircraft (mostly regular event planes) have comically low maintenance costs

#

meanwhile the X-50 is incredibly expensive to maintain for some reason

ocean shadow
#

why do we need to make liveries for staff/event vehicles apart from comissioning?

late geyser
#

This exists, just as a whitelist iirc

ocean shadow
#

i'd agree with special roles like mod

graceful yew
late geyser
#

Because I remember for the TU-556 only certain people could view it on the viewer (myself included)

#

So you’d just have to ask

#

I’d imagine

#

If they’re even in the livery viewer, that is

#

people just ask to be added to a whitelist

pseudo geyser
queen ivy
#

and event aircraft owners may ask for other people to be added as well
if they are commissioning a livery

late geyser

#

you can always relay the livery to the owner if we talk about comissioning or testing before model comes out

unique password is a no-go, too difficult

graceful yew
#

||another thing i forgor to include in original post||

late geyser
#

The white list system is good, if you’re doing a commissioned livery, just ask a dev for help

#

It’s as shrimple as that

#

And it’s the system already in place

graceful yew
ocean shadow
#

i can also agree with whitelist

late geyser
ocean shadow
#

whitelist for the dev livery viewer only that is

late geyser
#

Devs can specifically give access to certain aircraft in the viewer

#

That’s why the TU-556 has more public people with access to it in the viewer than public owners

graceful yew
#

hm

queen ivy
#

on a whitelist as for the concordski

#

sounds simple enough creditup

graceful yew
#

then why did hanyuu said that theres no way we can see her new mod plane?

late geyser
graceful yew
#

there was a mod plane contest

#

all participants will get the plane

late geyser
#

You’d get livery viewer access

#

Probably

late geyser
late geyser
#

Then again I could be entirely wrong because I believe there is like a lore plane viewer

#

Which could be staff only planes, so I could be very wrong, however, the whitelist is still a thing

#

And used for when rice asks people to texture stuff as well

#

what about all these people who will get hanyuu’s mod plane?

#

and the people who have event vehicles?
