There is a paint mod, which makes your ships chalk white. I love that one :) Gives a crazy contrast on the ships compated to the dark metallic surfaces.
I think you are talking about Captain Pearl (T3) paintmod, which is my favourite as well. I also like the more common Aldrin (T1) which has a light-grey secondary color. Personally I would prefer a pitch black or pink secondary color but that's life :D

Code: Select all

Really hope we get a 'paintshop' station module or something, that can paint our ships regardless of how 'many' paintmods we have.
If you only have one paint mod you can apply it to multiple ships using the Wharf (S/M) or Shipyard (L/XL). (You do need two paint mods if you want both S/M and L/XL ships)

Simply dock one ship with the required paint mod and any others requiring it at the same station and go to the mod bench at the ship dealership, select the docked ship, the bottom paint brush option and click on the ships existing paint job (the one you wish to copy). Selecting any other ship docked at the station will allow you to apply this paint job. :)
Hehe, thanks for that - sounds like an exploit though ;p

It's a bug, there are quite a few of those on the equip screen.

Not sure it's a bug, been available since day one and mentioned in many previous posts without any attempts to fix it. Thought it was working as intended and you do need to acquire the paint mod before you can use it. :) :)

There are a great many things that have been more than mentioned (i.e. properly reported) forever ago without any visible traction.

From what you describe ide be willing to bet my right arm that its just a UI exploit.

The paint mods heavily depend on which ship they are applied, sometimes they fit and sometimes don't.

Here are my favorites choices so far.

Foundation X - (which you get plenty of as a CE owner) - fit pretty well on all those "Sperber" and "Adler" ship you find lying around in space:
Captain Pearl - fits on most ship (but not all) but I especially like them on my S/M Paranid ships:
"Ehrliche Geschäfte" - Looks brilliant on X/XL paranid ships (and could imo be a default skin for one of the paranid races):
And finally another one which looks like made for this craft:

How did you get this paint? I sent multiple 64h ventures I and never got this one.
I've never did any 64h ones, i've only ever done the 1hr or 8hr fighter ventures so probably from one of them or maybe a mission?

I'll keep my eyes open if i seen another they're pretty cool, wish they added in a feature to trade them between players.
