September 11, 201312 yr I took a stab at painting my own fictional 777 yesterday and aside from this one issue was successfull. I read through the manual from the paintkit and also I couldn't find any comments on the forums so I thought I would post here to see if others have had this problem. I am missing the N1 Fan in both engines with my custom 777 paint job. As far as I can tell this is the only thing that is missing. I made sure that my Texture.cfg file had the proper fallback references, which it should since I simply copied it from the paintkit. I even tried coping the pmdg_777_misc.dds and pmdg_777_misc_parts.dds files from the texture.common200LR folder into my custom texture folder but still had no luck. Here is what I am talking about, any thoughts?

September 11, 201312 yr Author Did you load the 777 in some other livery and then switch to your custom livery? Humm, I did have a Flight saved as the default which loads each time FSX boots up to the Free Flight screen. I would normally then change my aircraft and other preferences before going flying. I did have the 777 in the PMDG house colors selected as the aircraft in that saved flight file. So I went in and changed the default flight so that it would load the FSX C-172 instead when FSX boots up, and then changed my aircraft to the PMDG 777 in my custom livery and the Fans now show up. I guess that fixed the problem, thanks for the tip Kyle!
