oscar19681 Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 Im seeing all these wonderfull skins comming out made by the community, but how do I change skins? Whenever I want to change a skin all I see is a blank bar in the editor or mission planner. Is if bugged or something? If so how do people change the skin? [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]

The first step is to install the skins on your DCS .. they have to go on this folder: For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB

oscar19681 Posted November 2, 2019 Author Posted November 2, 2019 Ah thanks alot.. For the love of god it still don’t show in game. Tried all the livery maps i could find. I’m my saved games folder, in my root directory. I just cant figure it out because when I want to change skins I still just get a blank bar with nothing in it. I have the steam version btw [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC]
Morpheus Posted November 2, 2019 Posted November 2, 2019 Be sure liveries are for country you choose. May be a screen of your mission editor would help to understand what is wrong.

I have the steam version btw Root Directory? .. you have to use the DCS folder that its inside your "Saved Games" folder. It is possible to have more than one such folder if you have had several DCS installs over time, for example I've three DCS folders inside my "Saved Games" (my Windows is a spanish version, so it is called "Juegos Guardados" but it is the same): You can see on the figure that I've three folders: /Saved Games/DCS/ on my case, this is the folder for the Steam Stable release of DCS. /Saved Games/DCS.1_5/ this is for a DCS v1.5 that I kept as backup when I upgraded to version 2.5 /Saved Games/DCS.OpenBeta/ this is for my DCS OpenBeta version. You can guess which one is the one you are using, by checking the date of the log file (dcs.log) .. on the example my DCS 1.5 has not been used since August. Once you are sure about which /saved games/dcs/ folder you are using, put there the liveries .. they should appear in game, both on the Mission Editor: and on the tarmac: Best regards For work: iMac mid-2010 of 27" - Core i7 870 - 6 GB DDR3 1333 MHz - ATI HD5670 - SSD 256 GB - HDD 2 TB - macOS High Sierra For Gaming: 34" Monitor - Ryzen 3600 - 32 GB DDR4 2400 - nVidia RTX2080 - SSD 1.25 TB - HDD 10 TB - Win10 Pro - TM HOTAS Cougar Mobile: iPad Pro 12.9" of 256 GB
