CoreMods versus Bazar: What's the difference?

[Diplocaulus]

I'm really loving the repaints available for so many of the DCS World modules. The work is fantastic!

 

Question, and I apologize if this has been asked a zillion times before:

 

What's the difference between repaints that go into the CoreMods folder versus those that go into the Bazar folder?

 

I frequently find that the skins destined for CoreMods don't show up in the Mission Editor, regardless of whether I put them in CoreMods or Bazar. Whereas skins specified for Bazar tend to show properly, at least for me.

 

Any info would be helpful. Thanks!

should be /CoreMods/Aircraft/<aircraft>/Liveries/<Aircraft Name>/<Livery Folder>

 

You CANT just dump a Livery into the /Aircraft/<aircraft>/Liveries/ Folder.

 

So for F-86F:

/CoreMods/Aircraft/F-86/Liveries/F-86F Sabre/<Livery Folder>/

Thanks SkateZilla. That makes sense. And if the appropriate CoreMods folder doesn't exist, then I need to create it, e.g., \CoreMods\aircraft\MiG-15bis\Liveries\MiG-15bis. That should fix the missing skins.

 

Still curious as to why some skins need to be installed in CoreMods versus Bazar.
