Recommended Posts

Hi:

Clearly something missing, for not only me but a friend who has the same problem:

Created a folder in DCS.openbeta/Liveries/FW-190A8, placed custom livery folder/files in there, it does not show up.

Downloaded a livery from the forum, placed it in there, doesn't show up.

My friend has the same problem, what am I missing?  All I can see is the stock FW-190A8, red 16, without any national markings

The folder name is correct, so most likely @razo+r is right and you are trying to apply the skin to an aircraft that belongs to a not supported country.  For example, on my case I have extra skins only for Greece (fictionals) and Third Reich, like this:

On the Sim, if I set an A8 for Third Reich, I get all the built-in skins, plus the 6 custom ones that I have .. I can distinguish between a built-in and a custom because I name mine with the country code they belong to NZG=NaZi Germany.

If I place on the mission a greece Fw-190, then I get only the default skin that is available for every country, plus my two custom ones, GRC is the code for Greece, like this:

And both skins work perfectly in game:

So, check your countries 🙂
