Microsoft Flight Simulator Liveries & Repaints Questions & Answers

Custom liveries in Microsoft Flight Simulator depend on correct package structure, texture formats, aircraft configuration and placement in the Community folder. This hub explains how to create and install repaints, rebuild layout files, diagnose liveries that do not appear, and avoid conflicts caused by outdated manifests, duplicate packages or simulator updates.

The Fly Away team also tests the practical differences between MSFS 2020 and MSFS 2024, including which liveries remain compatible and what must be changed during conversion. Coverage includes aircraft variants, model matching, texture fallbacks and the restrictions that may prevent community liveries from being selected in Career Mode, even when they work normally in Free Flight.
