Gentlemen, does anyone have problems with custom liveries after the upgrade v22.0.0? I don't see in sim the livery that I made myself, and the liveries from jankees either.

Let me check on this, we did some restructuring of the project in the SDK, which may have updated some path names. The intention was to ensure we did NOT break any 3rd party liveries, but it sounds like something may have gone wrong. Please don't update or "fix" any 3rd party liveries to chase this issue, we'll get it back to how it was.

Yep - confirmed there's a problem here. Will try to fix it in the next few hours.

OK, I fixed it and just published v22.0.1 on fs.to. Root cause: we forgot to rename the simobject folder back to its long-established value after the SDK build.

However, fixing that revealed an important and unavoidable issue related to 3rd party liveries. Because we are starting to overhaul cockpit textures, we have (where possible) moved to using shared textures for generic components that are common between the D and J variant. This keeps the package size down, and also makes updates and maintenance easier from the development side.

However - it does mean that any existing 3rd-party liveries are going to show some pink missing cockpit textures until the path ..\..\B-24 Liberator\texture.common is added as the last texture fallback in texture.cfg. Sorry about this change @Meridien , @jankees and any other livery creators.

Here's an example of what needs to be added to texture.cfg.
