FSX Paint Kit Bombardier CSeries 100 V4

Enjoy a refined way to customize the Bombardier CSeries 100 in Microsoft Flight Simulator X by leveraging this enhanced fourth iteration of the paint kit. The package offers highly detailed model geometry, advanced texturing elements, and ground service features. Developed and painted by Camil Valiquette (CamSim), this release provides a practical solution for those interested in creating unique repaints for their virtual hangars.

Key Visual Enhancements and Geometry Refinements

Version 4 focuses on refining the overall exterior shape and surface mapping. It incorporates precise fuselage lines, distinct wing contours, and an elevated texture resolution. By employing these refinements, repaint artists can capture the subtle details on the Bombardier CSeries 100’s airframe, such as rivets and access panels, without worrying about stretched or blurry images.

Static Displays and AGS Features

The paint kit also comes bundled with proprietary static objects and Animated Ground Servicing (AGS) capabilities from CamSim. For those unfamiliar, AGS enables graphical elements like operating doors, baggage loaders, and other interactive components around your parked aircraft, aiming to replicate a realistic airport ramp environment within your simulator space.

Notable Traits of the Bombardier CSeries 100

The Bombardier CSeries 100, now commonly known as the Airbus A220-100, is a short- to medium-range regional jet designed for efficiency and modern performance. It typically seats between 100 and 135 passengers, depending on the cabin layout. Sim enthusiasts often appreciate its next-generation avionics suite, which allows for improved flight automation and energy efficiency. This paint kit pays special attention to the aircraft’s aerodynamic form, ensuring accuracy for those wishing to replicate real-world airline liveries or create imaginative custom designs.

Installation Steps for Microsoft Flight Simulator X

• Extract all files into your FSX “Airplane” folder. This ensures the base model and texture elements are available for repainting.
• If you have not previously installed any of CamSim’s AGS aircraft, also unzip the Effects.zip (responsible for night lighting effects) into the main directory of Microsoft Flight Simulator X. The included files will reside in the “Effects” subfolder once properly placed.

Preview of the Unpainted Airframe

This release, meticulously crafted by Camil Valiquette of CamSim, provides an excellent canvas for virtual airline creators and repaint hobbyists. Whether you are bringing to life official airline branding or constructing a personalized design, the improved shapes and expanded detail options will serve as a reliable foundation for your projects.
