Hello flight simmers!

 

A bit of a pre-story,

Recently I deleted my fsx.cfg and then started up fsx to receive a fresh default fsx.cfg.

After that, I tweaked the fsx.cfg and replaced it with the fresh one. So now, I have a perfectly working fsx.cfg with, no problems.

 

Ok, so then I look into my aircraft directory (in fsx) and see that all aircraft are there, however with no liveries. I deleted and reinstalled the liveries of the PMDG 777 in the operations center. However this did not work either. Now I don't know what to do! As I don not want to fly with the standard PMDG 777 paint which is the only one existing at the moment.

 

Any answer would be appreciated, 

 

Thanks!

 

 

Hey, this is a simple fix. Open up your 777 cfg file and  under the last line of [flightsim.0] which generally is visual_damage=0 copy and paste this.

 

[fltsim.xx]  

title=PMDG 777-232LR Delta Air Lines

sim=B777-200LR

model=

panel=

sound=

texture=DL

atc_airline=DELTA

atc_id=N702DN

atc_flight_number=245

atc_heavy=1

atc_model=777-200LR

atc_parking_types=GATE,RAMP

atc_type=BOEING

ui_createdby=PMDG

ui_manufacturer=Boeing

ui_type=777-200LRX

ui_typerole=777-200LRX

ui_variation=Delta Air Lines

airline_name=Delta Air Lines

Replace [flightsim.xx] with the next number in the series for e.g. after [flightsim.1] it should be [flightsim.2] and etc.

Replace the title with the name of the airline whose texture is being used.

Under the field texture use the the title of the livery folder in the same folder where the cfg is located for e.g. Texture.pmdg, Texture.BA and etc. Omit the word texture and just use what follows it i.e. BA, pmdg and etc.

You can change other details like the ones that follow atc_  but they are not necessary to make the livery work.

fix would be  to tick  the show all variants  in the select aircraft  section

Im going with the assumption that he has that checked. I believe his problem is that the op centre cannot write to the newly edited cfg file. Iceidic you can also try running running the pmdg op centre as admin or check whether the cfg is set to read only.

Hello Guys,

Thanks for the quick response! Thats why I love this forum

 

The problem is solved, I had all of the variants checked, but there were partially incomplete commands in the .cfg. I replaced the incomplete ones with the template above, and solved the problem

 

Thanks a lot Brownman and pete_auau.
