After doing this, it will load, but ONLY the first time...next time I open mv2 again it wont work so I have to delete constantly to get the liveries window to open :cry:

 

Also, environment slider doesnt work.

This also did not work for me.

Deleting the Model Viewer folder all together in the saved games folder worked ONCE for me. I opened, it, loaded a model, clicked on the liveries tool and it worked.

 

I closed the model viewer, opened it again and the liveries tool would not load.

Hi,

 

Same issue here, after deleting the folder it only works once after opening it, then when closing it and opening it fails again.

[Utildai]

So, no one else has an idea on this? MV used to work fine until an update or two ago...

[GreenD]

Same here.

 

 

Only works when I delete the folder each time I use the Model viewer.

 

 

Here is my log:

Try docking the liveries tool window to the left side where the environment sliders are by default after deleting the saved games folder. Works just fine after that for me.

[Damned - Gh0st]

Experiencing this currently, but found a solution based on @BIGNEWY's suggestion that does not require losing all your configs/settings.

 

In your \Saved Games\edModelViewerTrunk\Config folder is a JSON file named "ModelViewer2.json"

Open the file and search for the "LiveriesToolPlugin" section.

Replace it with the following.

    "LiveriesToolPlugin": {
        "WidgetParams": {
            "dockingAreas": 15,
            "isDocked": true,
            "isVisible": true,
            "lastDockArea": 1,
            "posX": 0,
            "posY": 51,
            "sizeX": 640,
            "sizeY": 745
        }
    },

 

The short of it: We go into the config file and set the Livery Picker back to "Docked". It will show back up for you and then you can undock/reposition at will.

Useful when using the keyboard shortcuts to move a hidden window doesn't work

 

Hope it helps!

 

(only reason I'm necro'ing this post is that it's still relevant and this post is the first google result when searching "DCS model viewer livery tool stuck offscreen")
