How Come Some Liveries Downloaded from this Site Show Up, But Others Do Not???

Mac6737 · Jan 18th 2021

Yes, I checked the file structures in my Community folder, and the liveries that don't show up have file structures identical to those that do.

So, what gives? Also, Is there a known fix or work-around for a non-appearing livery?

BTW, I do not extract directly from my DLs to Community. I extract to a place outside the sim, check the files and then move them to Community. This should work, no?

This is quite hard to say because every livery painter is responsible that their liveries work and show up in game. There isn't a simple fix for everything. But the only thing you can do is ask the authors to patch their non working liveries.

Mac , This may help liveries show up if you have duplicate folders with liveries , In the Community folder 'delete' the duplicate folder underneath the livery pack folder - it will appear as ' liveries_CVT_' , also 'delete' the duplicate " aircraft _CVT_" folder . After you have deleted these ' restart ' your computer and AC liveries should show up correctly . I do this for every texture that I repaint and it always works , the 'CVT' regenerates to the correct data ( ? )

Thanks hope this assists with your issue

Thanks, but I have never seen any folders meeting your descriptions in my Community folder -- or elsewhere.

OK, I didn't think you were making it up. But I don't have those.
