Yeah, I’m still a bit puzzled on how the liveries work. My 208 livery is from the Liveries Megapack, you can see it in my selfie shot. But when you see my plane taken from the perspective of your camera, as well as Flying Cookie, not only does my livery not show up, but my plane appears as a different version of a 208 sized plane, but with the low wing configuration, as opposed to the standard high wing for the 208.
I would expect that not having the add-on livery would just result in seeing the default livery. I am surprised to see that not having the add-on livery results in seeing a totally different plane structure! Not to mention the added element of the MSFS settings for this: Use Generic Plane Models (Multiplayer). Mine are set to OFF. If I turn mine ON, then how would we all look different?
Maybe a good discussion topic for a future podcast!
