FSX & FSX: Steam Edition Liveries & Repaints Questions & Answers

FSX liveries can fail for several distinct reasons: missing texture folders, incorrect aircraft.cfg entries, mismatched texture= names, unsupported formats, or repaints made for a different aircraft model. This hub explains how to add liveries to default and add-on aircraft, and why an installed repaint may not appear in the selection menu.

You will also find practical fixes for completely white aircraft, absent thumbnails, duplicate variants and problems caused by editing the configuration file incorrectly. Answers are written and tested by the Fly Away team, with attention to folder structure, repaint compatibility and the small syntax details that commonly stop FSX and FSX: Steam Edition from loading textures.
