I have downloaded and installed the livery for my VA successfully.How do I now choose the livery for my aircraft within FSX/PMDG?

Is this a kind of Sunday joke or did I miss something ? (i mean 3 star member, a PMDG logo in signature... and a question on how to select a livery within FSX ??)

He could have been using the default PMDG liveries.

Amounts to the same thing: you have to select it in the first place :(

I thought he was talking about selecting different liveries and not the ones that come with the different variants. Now I'm confused. :(

When you go to the select aircraft screen, put a check in the check box for show all variants. Then you will be able to see all the liveres! If you have not made the proper edits to the aircraft .cfg file to add the paint though. If you need help just message here, or PM me and I will be glad to help.. Being a 3 star member, and having PMDG add-ons does not mean much. I have been flying add-ons for years, and only within the last 2 years have I figured out how to do a lot of this stuff. Sometimes you just do not have a need to know until you want to change something.

Many thanks, Steve! It's easy when you know how!It's such a pity that, after being away from FSX/PMDG for 6 months and forgetting so much, I have to go through such rude comments from so many. It spoils the experience so much.Cheers, Richard

I mean this in the least offensive way as possible:It's the internet. There are trolls here. There are also people like me who don't really spare the extra words all the time to come off diplomatic (though still not intentionally offensive).The best way I've found is to let it roll off, laugh about it, or take their nastiness and celebrate it. Sorry you were offended, but when dealing with the internet, it's good to develop a thick skin. There's no sense in feeling bad about coming here to ask for information just because some people aren't the kindest.

+1 Go on Youtube and upload or comment on videos and your skin will be like Cobham Armour after a couple of days.
