How to install liveries?

Featured Replies

Good evening Gents! I just loaded up the Livery Manager, downloaded a bunch of liveries, but now I don't know where to put them.. The livery manager isn't detecting them. Any ideas? Regards,Tanner Novak.Nevermind.. I found it.. :D

I sent them to a special folder marked "Liveries". I just couldn't see them because I had to unzip the .ptp file from the folder itself. Got it figured out though!

Actually, I discovered that you can put them anywhere...Open the Livery manager and select the type of plane you want the livery to go on. Press the add button in the middle and a window will open allowing you to browse to the ptp file..Confusing at first, but easy as cake.. Pam

Hmm. When I select the installation button, I get "aircraft.cfg file is read-only. Would you like to remove read-only status."I must zigged instead of zagged at some point. Any hints would be gratefully received?Thanks in advance

Cheers,

My problem is the livery installer installs the first livery fine but every after it erases the entry to the aircraft.cfg file. So it installs all the files but doesn't list them in the CFG. I had to spend quite a while manually entering the info in the CFG just to get them to show in FSX. If I attempt to install another with the installed (not backing up the CFG then editing) it will wipe the CFG clean again.
