Livery Question

Hello, I hope all well,

Recently I made a livery for KA-50 but I want to change the colour of its weapons and engine exhaust part but couldn't find the files. Usually, there are files for some other aircraft such as you can modify f18c fuel tanks and bombs etc. Would be very happy if someone helps me out at this.

The second question I have is after the release of Black Shark 3 does my livery work, do I have to update it or make a new one for it?

Thanks wish you all good flights.

Parts that I couldnt find ref pic:

Hi,

Exhausts and other generic (should never change) elements are in a zip file under <Your DCS Location>\Bazar\World\textures\ka-50.zip

BUT

I haven't yet found the .lua that calls the elements so I don't know their names - you need that to put it in your own .lua in the livery folder...

If you find out, can you post it here please?

Thanks it was helpful but as you said we have to figure out the lua names of those files and If I find it will share it for sure.

*As well as Im trying to locate vikhry missiles and non guided missiles at;

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\DCSWorld\Bazar\World\textures

That will create the description.lua with every line aviable. For the KA-50 it will look like this:

}

As you can see there is no line for weapons. That mean you cant create weapon liveries and you have to edit them in the DCS core wich will break IC.

Wow, thanks Mike!

You get the prize for the most helpful (to me) post this month :)

Thank you so much Mike
