• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Is there something I can change in the .cfg files of downloaded liveries to make them appear first in the list?

Easiest way is just to swap the Pictures in Livery ( if they have the same names ) , or fiddle with their numbers .... should work .

Yes there is:

In the aircraft.cfg for each livery, search for the "ui_manufacturer =" line and add an asterisk after the = like this:

Default aircraft Before:

ui_manufacturer = "TT:AIRCRAFT.UI_MANUFACTURER" ; e.g. Boeing, Cessna

Default aircraft After:

ui_manufacturer = *"TT:AIRCRAFT.UI_MANUFACTURER" ; e.g. Boeing, Cessna

Add-on or Modded aircraft Before:

ui_manufacturer = "Diamond Aircraft" ; e.g. Boeing, Cessna

Add-on or Modded aircraft After:

ui_manufacturer = *"Diamond Aircraft" ; e.g. Boeing, Cessna

Thanks! I'll give that a try. It'll be nice not to have to search for my favorite paintjobs every time.
