How do we get our repainted a/c from FSpainter to show in FS

Change this to [fltsim.0], [fltsim.1] and add it to the aircraft cfg.

Check the read-me that came with the download.

If you have only two different textures so far, the [fltsim.0] entry pertains to the original, the first texture.

Now you've named your additional livery: texture.3.
Even though the name is <3> the following entry in your aircraft.cfg has to be [fltsim.1] NOT [fltsim.3].
If you add another livery/texture the subsequent entry has to start with [fltsim.2] ...and so on.

This can get confusing that's why it's much better to give your individual textures names instead of numbers.

As an example the original texture could be named AA, the next one Virgin Atlantic, the next one SIA and so on.

Here's an example of my MD-11 .cfg with 21 different textures:

You see that each texture has a name rather than a number.

NOTE: I said 21 different textures even though the last entry is [fltsim.20] -- the first entry [fltsim.0] counts as well so that brings as to a total of 21.

thank you both for replying, but i dont get it. this is what i have done, as you said, but its still not appearing in fs

Why do I bother to hand it to you on a golden platter when you can't even find the time to read??

The texture= entries must have a name or they won't show up.
Neither of your texture= entries have a name... what do you expect?

And why:

...but i desperately need the defult livery for the beech baron -- doesn't make any sense.

thanks for the reply, but i did read your message before and i didnt get it. but now that you have plainly told me that i should name the textures bit, i fully understand.
thanks alot! 😀
p.s. when i said the default livery, i meant that i have deleted the beech baron livery that came with fs, so i would need that back but i dont know where from
