Where can I download FlyByWire A320neo liveries for MSFS 2024?

Adam McEnroe
In short

Download FlyByWire A320neo liveries for MSFS 2024, choose the correct A32NX pack, install it on PC, and fix missing or broken paints.

You can download free FlyByWire A320neo (A32NX) liveries for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 from our free MSFS livery collection. Choose packs explicitly labelled for the FlyByWire A32NX, not the default A320neo or iniBuilds A320neo V2, then place them in the PC Community folder. Xbox and PlayStation cannot use manually downloaded livery files.

Which A320neo livery files should I download?

The package must name the FlyByWire A32NX as its target aircraft. An airline name or an A320neo label alone does not establish compatibility because each A320 variant uses its own model, texture mapping and aircraft identifiers.

Package labelSuitable for the FlyByWire A32NX?
FlyByWire A32NX or FBW A320neoYes; prefer a package that also mentions MSFS 2024 compatibility.
Default or Asobo A320neoNo; it targets a different aircraft package.
iniBuilds A320neo V2No; its paints are not interchangeable with A32NX liveries.
A320ceo or another developer's A320No; the model and texture layout differ.

Search the library by airline and check the description before downloading. For example, our Ryanair livery download notes identify a pack containing a dedicated FlyByWire A32NX repaint.

How do I install an A32NX livery in MSFS 2024?

An A32NX livery supplies the paint and configuration files, not the flyable aeroplane. Install a compatible build of the aircraft first; our FlyByWire A32NX aircraft download page covers the required base package.

  1. Download and extract the archive. Do not put the ZIP or RAR file directly in the Community folder.
  2. Find the actual package folder. It should contain files such as manifest.json and layout.json.
  3. Copy that folder into the active MSFS 2024 Community folder. A structure such as Community/livery-name/manifest.json is correct; Community/livery-name/livery-name/manifest.json is usually nested one level too deep.
  4. Restart the simulator. Select the FlyByWire A32NX in the aircraft selector, then choose the new paint from its livery options.

Community folder locations vary with the installation method and any custom package path. Our A32NX livery installation instructions cover the folder checks and extraction process in more detail.

Do MSFS 2020 A32NX liveries work in MSFS 2024?

Some MSFS 2020 liveries work in MSFS 2024 when they were built specifically for the FlyByWire A32NX, but compatibility is not guaranteed. Older packages can use obsolete texture references or package data, causing missing decals, pink textures or no livery entry at all.

Prefer a repaint whose description explicitly names MSFS 2024. If only an MSFS 2020 edition exists, install it by itself, test the exterior and cockpit views, and remove the package if it produces visual faults or loading errors.

Why is my FlyByWire livery not showing?

A missing A32NX livery is usually caused by the wrong aircraft target, an extra folder level or installation into the wrong Community folder.

  • Confirm that the repaint says FlyByWire A32NX, not merely A320neo.
  • Check that manifest.json is inside the first package folder beneath Community.
  • Make sure you used the MSFS 2024 Community folder rather than the separate MSFS 2020 folder.
  • Verify that the base A32NX is installed, enabled and selectable.
  • Remove duplicate or older copies of the same repaint, then restart the simulator.

The paint normally appears as a livery option for the A32NX rather than as a separate aircraft. If the aeroplane loads with pink or missing surfaces, the livery package is incompatible or incomplete rather than simply installed under the wrong name.

Can Xbox or PS5 install downloaded A32NX liveries?

No. MSFS 2024 on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 does not expose a PC-style Community folder, so manually downloaded A32NX aircraft and livery archives cannot be installed there. Console users are limited to compatible content distributed through the simulator's supported in-sim channels.
