Hi there, your question seems incomplete. Can you rephrase it? what are you seeking?

This feature has been removed. Sorry for any inconvenience.

This is the exact same reason, I developed this :
https://flightsim.to/file/1984…-my-damn-community-folder

The problem is that this path "C:\Users\Username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\Community" is not the default path on everyone's config. Some people might have changed their path during installation.

What my app does is, it looks for the usercfg file that is created by the game. This file provides the location of the community folder. That's what it does, just read some lines.

Hey, I suggest you request your livery here : https://flightsim.to/requests/liveries, you'll have more chance

This is something the developers of H135 must implement with their aircraft. Liveries are static, they cannot be dynamically modified. I suggest you contact H135 developer and inform them.

If you have abadstudio planes, remove them and try again. If not, is this the default asobo a320?

Bonjour et bienvenu Almanzar  jpfil  TAPAULO, Glad to have you here!

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.

Hey Tapi , if you head over to https://flightsim.to/discover

You'll see a combo box named All authors, click on it and you can start typing and the usernames will pop!

Hey, were you successful on finding your community folder?

Hey Arnason , ToLiss is a blessing and coming from a fully, study level functional plane and trying the default A320neo is indeed quite hard to adapt. I completely understand your pain.

While the NX is better than the default, it still uses the base A20N, so there are some flaws that comes with.

Now for your CTDs, can you try to lower your graphics settings just for TO and try again.

Lemme know

Cheers

This guide is intended for those who seek to have a consistent thumbnail for their liveries.

Here's what it looks like :

How to achieve

Prerequisite :

• Developer mode must be ON
  (If not familiar, Go to Options -> General -> Developers)
  

• Menu animations should also be turned ON, This is normally turned ON by default.
  (If not familiar, Go to Options -> General -> Accessibility -> Menu Animations)
  
  When you have menu animations turned off, you can take a screenshot at whatever angle you look at it from. For our case though, we want it to be at default angle, so it's not necessary to turn it off.

Instructions :

1. You must take a screenshot of your aircraft inside your hanger. To do so, head to the Profile -> My Hanger
   
2. On the developer menu, click on [DevMode], hit New project and click OK to create the project.
                 
   
   
3. Project Editor panel will be open.
4. Click on the + sign to add a package and name it whatever you want, it doesn't really matter and hit Create
   
   
   
5. On the Project Editor panel, go to View and open Inspector
   
   
   
6. On the Inspector panel, click on the button "Capture aircraft thumbnail" and chose the place where you want to save the aircraft's photo.
7. After that, you can use photo editors such as Photoshop... to crop the photo to match the default thumbnails that can be found in the game. Doing this manually can be tricky, so that's why we're going to use a little app I made to help you save multiple clicks.
   It's called "Default thumbnail generator" and you can download it here : https://flightsim.to/file/1197/default-thumbnail-generator
   
   
8. Unzip the app and extract it at the same place as your aircraft's photo.
9. (With the latest version, this is optional) You should now have this :
   Make sure that the aircraft's photo name is SCREENCAPTURE0_LE.PNG
   
10. Open the app and it's quite self explanatory, you click on your desired aircraft model, for instance I'm making one for A320neo, I simply click on the A320neo button and the app will crop the original image and export two thumbnail images that I can use as thumbnails for MSFS2020.
11. Final results :
    
    

This is what the thumbnails look like in-game :

I hope this helped you to create beautiful and unified thumbnails for your livery. If you have any question, just ask

[UPDATE-1] With the latest release, you have the possibility to browse your file and import it to the app. The app will then export the generated thumbnails at the same path of the imported image.

Hey Scooty, That's a great idea, will definitely look at this and will let you.

Stay safe,
