Pilot/helmet not customizable for external view through livery.

For the MiG-29 Fulcrum, the pilot can only be customized as part of the cockpit(-view), so it is not customizable for external views.

Other aircraft have the pilot/helmet/... as part of the aircraft livery so it can be customized.

I made this (https://forum.dcs.world/topic/380055-support-for-full-liverypilotcockpit-mod-in-user-folder-without-breaking-pure-textures/ topic before I knew it was a MiG-29 Fulcrum specific problem.

Never mind; I got it working!

You can overload any texture file that is part of the livery. It just happens to be that there are not yet any modded Fulcrum pilots in the DCS liveries.

For anybody searching for the solution:

  1. Open the model that you want to mod in the modelviewer2.
  2. Regenerate LUA: Alt+Ctrl+Shift+G
  3. Read the LUA to see the names you need to map.

Without this, I could not have found out that `Pilot_MIG29_Helmet_Visor` would be the name for `Pilot_MIG29_Glass`.
