December 1, 200916 yr Hi All.Could someone help me out with this situation.I have downloaded different liveries for the 737-600 NG and installed them using the automatic insall that comes with the download.And then checked in the FS9 folder under aircraft-PMDG 737-600 and all the folders are there example 'TEXTURE.AC' for the Air Canada one I believe. But when I run FS ACOF and select aircraft they just don't appear as a choice. It is strange because I have installed liveries for the B747-400 without any problems.There is on folder in the PMDG 737-600 folder that is not present on the B747 on it is named 'update textures for liveries' don't know what it does but maybe one of you guys know. Running Vista 64 SP2 FS9 Thanks for your help.Bat
December 2, 200916 yr Hi, Bat!Some 737-600 liveries have old installers. They require manual adding of entries to your PMDG737-600 aircraft.cfg.I guess that may be your problem. Give it a try!It should be quite easy since the installers leave a text file in the PMDG737-600 folder where the entries-to-copy are hidden.And the 'update textures for liveries' folder is to apply fixes to the updated 736 model (each time you add a livery).Just copy the textures into your newly installed liveries.

They have been installed automaticly it seems, because I didn't do it manually. Do you have any other suggestions.Thanks again.Bat.
January 2, 201016 yr HiAnyone from PMDG could help me out on this one?BatHi, your problem is quite similar to mine. There is another post in this forum where talking about, but referred to Windows 7 users.Yesterday I installed with the ".exe" file four SWA liveries but only two are shown in the selection options. A way to fix (probably) this problem is run the file as admin. Any other way is actually unknown...Bye.Richard Roews Capt.

January 2, 201016 yr Try it as an admin in Windows SAFE mode. That was suggested for some PMDG installs of aircraft and replies indicated that worked.For those with the 800/900 installed after the 600/700, don't forget to run the special batch file in the 600/700 aircraft folders after installing a livery.
