Livery bug R1 Dominant Fury

[Larry77W]

Hi all !

I've flown Mission 1 so far and had a blast. I'm starting Mission 2 after a DCS restart.

So far on both missions, in F2 view, I'm seeing the VFA37 livery and not the VFA64....any ideas ?

Thanks

Hi all ! To fix the issue I moved the Liveries to the saved games folder, and used this as the folder name "FA-18C".

Hope it helps those with the same issue

It was supposed to be fixed before the release, I'll make sure it is with the next update. thanks for the fix, I am going to pin this post for the time being.

The Turks have stock skins, this is DCS. But we’ll soon get a new model.

Could someone please clarify this fix?  I don't completely understand from the original post which folder needs to be copied from "Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\campaigns\FA-18C Raven One Dominant Fury" to "Saved Games\DCS.openbeta".  Thanks!

Hi Clyde,

You need to move all the folders (see screenshot) inside the Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta\Mods\campaigns\FA-18C Raven One Dominant Fury\Liveries folder, into your C:\Users\*your username*\Saved Games\DCS\Liveries. That should do the trick.

Figured it out. I tried the above fixes and they didnt work either. What you need to do is:

1. Copy the liveries folder from the Raven One Dominant Fury Campaign folder as shown above.
2. Paste the liveries folder into C:\Users\*your username*\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Liveries (or C:\Users\*your username*\Saved Games\DCS if you don't have a liveries folder in there already).
3. All of the liveries (except the F18 Hornet liveries) should work fine now.
4. Open the FA-18C Folder, inside of it, you should see a folder named Raven One Dominant Fury.
5. Copy all of the Liveries inside C:\Users\*your username*\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Liveries\FA-18C_hornet\Raven One Dominant Fury
6. Paste all of the copied files directly into C:\Users\*your username*\Saved Games\DCS.openbeta\Liveries\FA-18C_hornet. 

I figured this out because none of the other aircraft folders under "Liveries" have a sub folder like the FA-18C_hornet folder does with the Raven on Dominant Fury folder. This is blocking the liveries being used by the game, and they need to sit directly in the FA-18C_hornet folder, not in a sub-folder.

Ahh, yes, got it !! so i had already copied the livs into Savegames/DCS.openbera/Liveries/FA-18C/FA-18C_hornet/*all diff livs*

 

But i just had to copy paste the "FA-18C_hornet" file, directly to Liveries (So Savegames/DCS.openbera/Liveries/FA-18C_hornet/*all diff livs*)

Then within Liveries i had a "FA-18C" folder AND a "FA-18C_Hornet" folder.

 

Cheers man, never would of got that otherwise !!

didn't work to start with , I've got it now you have to completely delete the campaign livery file from mods campaign not just copy, then create a raven one dominant fury on your saved games. That will allow you to go on the F18 file on save games and copy the specific liveries for the hornet there. you will have new liveries on the f18 file, on saved games, stating 64's and so on  (several new files there) that now will work

I raised it with ED, hope they will be able to fix it on their end.
