How do I see modded aircraft liveries?

[WalletWarrior]

When I load up the ov10 in the model viewer I can't seem to find its liveries so all its textures are missing. I will try with other mods but I doubt they will work

Doesn't work for Hercules either it says under texture that it is all missing

The ModelViewer always looks in the game directory for it's skins so you would have to put a skin folder into the game directory for it to be seen.

where in the directory because I looked in my c drive but I cant find where to put the liverys

Well because the OV10 is a mod, I dunno to be honest.
What I DO know is that if you go into the plane's folder in your Mods in Saved Games then the textures folder has (obviously) the textures and the edm files are actually in the 'Shapes' folder... 

Make a new folder on your desktop named OV-10A.
Copy and paste the OV-10A.edm out of ''Mods>Aircraft>BRONCO_V1.24>Shapes' (in Saved Games)  folder
Make a folder called 'Textures' (in the OV-10A folder on your desktop) and copy and paste the contents of any of the skin folders from the in 'Mods>Aircraft>BRONCO_V1.24>Liveries' (in Saved Games).
Open ModelViewer. Click File>Load Model.
Search for the folder you just made on your desktop and click on the .edm file in there and BINGO!!

this worked except it is missing some textures like the glass but that doesn't matter

Exactly. I know it's a bit annoying but at least it lets you make a skin and check it. To be honest, the glass is just glass innit?
