Camble Posted December 17, 2024 Author Posted December 17, 2024 @GregP I'm very glad you find it useful, thanks a bunch for your kind feedback! 1. I am planning to add a way to delete skins, but in the meantime you can double-click a thumbnail to open an explorer window. If you delete the folder, the UI will update to reflect that. I really should create a video explaining the various functionality I've implemented. 2. There are a few liveries that we can't install, especially those that contain a PDF or other instructions to go and download from elsewhere. I'll never understand why people compress an already compressed file, but if it's just a zip within a zip, I suppose that could be handled seamlessly. I'll take a look at one of his liveries and get back to you. 1
GregP Posted December 17, 2024 Posted December 17, 2024 Thanks for looking into it. And just to clarify, even if I unzip the outer zip, and then point LL at the actual zip with the skins, it gives me above error, so I'm thinking it must be something about the way he's describing his skins in the Lua file. 1
Camble Posted December 17, 2024 Author Posted December 17, 2024 Yea, I was able to reproduce the problem. As a workaround, it should be able to install if the texture files are inside a folder instead of at the root of the zip. I notice the readme for those liveries asks you to install them in CoreMods rather than User Files. I think it should work just fine, but worth pointing out. There may be a reason for that. 1
Camble Posted December 17, 2024 Author Posted December 17, 2024 (edited) The issue you were experiencing is fixed in v0.21.2. I haven't implemented extracting zips within zips yet. I'll probably look into this fairly soon, since installing from a local file misses out the thumbnail and Author details. Edited December 17, 2024 by Camble 1
GregP Posted December 17, 2024 Posted December 17, 2024 Wow, thanks for the quick work!!! I just tried the new version and verified that it does indeed work to install his skins. Shame about missing the thumbnail though, but I look forward to you tackling that one too at some point.
WARcrime Posted December 28, 2024 Posted December 28, 2024 not sure what im doing wrong but when i point the directories to locations on my pc it fails to see any liveries. Is there a discord to seek help?
Camble Posted December 29, 2024 Author Posted December 29, 2024 @WARcrime Hi, yes I've replied to you on Discord, but for future reference here... Livery Link won't (yet) pick up existing liveries. Install a livery either by pasting in a User Files URL, or from a local file on disk. You can also drag (compressed) files onto the app window to install liveries. 1
Camble Posted January 5 Author Posted January 5 Something I'm working on for the next release, is the ability to change the thumbnail of a livery. This is especially useful for liveries installed from disk, where no screenshot has been scraped from user files. 2
GregP Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Excellent!! Perhaps you read my mind because just last night I was wondering if there was a way to manually do it already, and I meant to start poking around the files but then got distracted with other DCS tweaking. But this ability would be huge and I for one would be extremely appreciative of it. 1
GregP Posted January 12 Posted January 12 I see the latest update added the manual thumbnail assignment capability - thank you! 1
Camble Posted January 18 Author Posted January 18 Found a major issue in the updater for v0.23.0 - essentially once you update to this version, the updater fails to launch properly. I've temporarily removed this version until I can implement a fix. 1
Camble Posted January 19 Author Posted January 19 I've re-uploaded v0.23.0 - anyone who was already on this version should redownload and at least replace the updater. 2
Camble Posted January 25 Author Posted January 25 Decided to split the Google Drive integration into 2 phases. v0.24.0 includes phase 1, downloading and sharing public shares via Google Drive. Livery Link now lets you paste in a Google Drive link and, if you enable "Receive from untrusted download locations" in the options, you can receive shares from Google Drive as well. The second phase will include authentication, which will allow you to install privately shared liveries. 2

Aufpassen Posted April 11 Posted April 11 Hi there, I am interested in trying this software, but somehow I am not able to install it correctly. Starting the software I get this message: "DCS World" Installation folder not found, and asking "Please browse to your "DCS World" Installation folder". If I then click on OK, nothing happens. No Browse window opens. So, how do I go about finding a solution for this? Any help would be appreciated. Best regards and thanks in advance. 1
Camble Posted April 11 Author Posted April 11 Hi @Aufpassen, This issue has been fixed in v0.25.16, thanks for bring it to my attention! 1
