Anyone else having issues with other Kodiaks at airports showing up pink? All my liveries seem to be fine.
Running SU10 but I think I also saw it on SU9.

Maybe try again but without added liveries?
Yes,I have seen that as well. All of my liveries seem intact, I have not found any that did not load properly when I select them, but over the past week or two I have seen a few pink checker board Kodiaks. I almost never use any of th edefault liveries, I wonder if perhaps one of those has become corrupt
I see this of and on, too.
I have no liveries other than what ship with the Kodiak. On Xbox, I also can’t delete any that could be offending.

I saw another airplane today that was in black and white. I’m not sure which model it was.
I’m seeing this as well, and I can confirm I do not have any Kodiak liveries loaded. I’m thinking it’s one of the default liveries doing it somehow, but maybe only as AI? Maybe a file isn’t being referenced correctly. I’ll see if it’s being discussed on the SWS Discord.

Alex with SWS got back to me and said that they’re aware of this issue but don’t know why it happens. It’s a failure of the sim to load one of the default liveries’ textures, but all of the textures are present, so they haven’t found a solution yet.

Thank you for contacting SWS! I have the same issue, never installed any additional liveries for the Kodiak. Hopefully they will find a solution.
The Kodiak has a large number of liveries by default. It could be that it’s what triggers a bug in the sim code?
Hmm, good theory. Maybe the sim struggles to load one of them from the list. If I had to guess, there’s probably a single typo somewhere or a missing semicolon in the code causing the whole thing. I might disable the Kodiak from appearing as AI until it’s sorted, nothing like a blinding pink Kodiak at night to startle you out of immersion.
Can you disable one airplane from AI?
Yep! Here’s how you can do it for the Kodiak:
Navigate to your packages folder and drill down to the 4 folders for each type of Kodiak, e.g.
Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\Community\sws-aircraft-kodiak-wheels\SimObjects\Airplanes\SWS_Kodiak_gear
Open the file called aircraft.cfg in each one of those folders and change this line from =1 to =0
Then save the file and it should no longer show up at airports

Thanks, I would have assumed it to be the bottom option.

You know, I’m not 100% it isn’t the bottom option and had to research it a bit, someone back in May '21 said it was the isAirTraffic which doesn’t seem right to me. I’ll test it out later and double check.
