Speaking of change of livery...

Given that the J-11A and Su-27 look quite similar I would like to use some Su-27 custom skins. This works surprisingly well - however, the custom 3 digits on the tail often are in the way of the liveries. I haven't found a way to hide them yet, so usually a gray rectancle with the numbers is displayed. Is there a way to make the numbers and their background completely invisible (or at least the background in the same color as the livery, like in the AUSAF desert skin)? Thanks!

I had the same problem when I tried to convert one of my Su-27 skins for USAF Aggressors. Can't get rid of the numbers and US logos are showing up where I don't want them. It would be nice to know how to get around this.

No, your link does not help at all.

 

How do I select the USAF Aggressor liveries ?

 

Are they a mod or do they come with the update ?

 

I can't find them anywhere. (Yes I have FC3 and DCS 2.5.1. OB)

You can find the liveries in

 

[...]\DCS World\CoreMods\aircraft\ChinaAssetPack\Liveries\J-11A\

 

You can choose the liveries for USAF Aggressor planes.

 

If you want to use the Aggressor liveries for e.g. Chinese aircraft, you need to

1. make a J-11A folder in \SavedGames\DCS(openbetaorwhatever)\Liveries\

2. copy an Aggressor folder to \SavedGames\DCS(openbetaorwhatever)\Liveries\J-11A\

3. edit the description.lua to include China - or remove all countries to use it regardless of country

 

Still, I can't get rid of the numbers on the tails, unfortunately...
