Yesterday at 11:26 AM1 day Very close now to adding support for 3rd party liveries. I've taken a slightly different approach to OC2 in that importing a 3rd party PTP makes it available in the catalog of available liveries (which means copying the PTP to your liveries repository directory) Then you can install it there. You'll be able to delete custom liveries too via the normal UI.Right now it's a single import per livery as you can also set the custom icon. I'd like to eventually add support for bulk importing. Not sure whether I'll support livery exporting as I don't think there's much of a market for that given the aged nature of P3D and market share. This app is mainly to allow people to continue flying the old school stuff

First they miscommunicate the date, OC2 was completely shut off today, 4 days earlier than the May 31st timeline. Then, Mathijs on the PMDG forums says that there are no plans to bring any P3D products to OC3. Anyone still using PMDG products in P3D are essentially swindled of their money and the product they rightfully paid for and have the right to use, 4 days before the expected date. The very least they could have done is released an end-of-life update to either disconnect it from OC2, or released official solutions for livery installation. Unbelievably scummy behavior.Yep I second every word as I've just had a complete computer crash, I've had to do a full system reinstall got to PMDG and Oc2 is gone, got an email from PMDG telling me it's done, now on the search for livery replacements.

This downloads directly from PMDG's storage servers. This will download the liveries for a separate app that I'm developing which will allow you to install them.I'm planning on creating a release later with my app. I still need to improve the error handling but I can develop iteratively with subsequent updates
7 hours ago7 hr Right, sorry for the spam.v0.0.10 is now released which contains the 3rd party livery support. https://github.com/ColinM9991/Livery-Installer/releases/tag/v0.0.10I've also created a repository for the PTP download script (which I've documented in the readme of the installer) https://github.com/ColinM9991/Livery-DownloaderThe latest download scripts will download only the PTP and Icons, since the configs aren't necessary. I've also removed the 737NGX so only the P3D 737NGXu, 747 and 777 liveries will be download.Please test, troubleshoot and report issues here or via DMs. There is a note around troubleshooting in the installer README which I recommend checking out.Now I need to get back to my day job 😅

I am very much looking forward both the installer and the downloader. It's good to know not all hope is lost in getting the official liveries again. There's so many I am missing.

They're both available via the links aboveI did re-run the downloader script earlier today so I can say with confidence that you should have no issues in downloading the official liveries.
