=============================================================

w:i:p: THIS a limited and inperfect release due to design difficoults by an not complete paint kit. Because de fragmentation of the kit why and there isn't a complete livery of the fuselage.

So it's the best I have can do, please be kind, it is imperfect but nicely.
When a better paint kit it's avalaible maybe i can try again to design it.

HERE SOME NEW SOLUTION FOR WHO HAS PROBLEM WITH THIS LIVERY
======> READ MY LAST REPLY TO FLAGGER  ON LAST MESSAGE<================

 

To install FIRST SOLUTION
put the whole package in the deault folder of Dash8 aircraft, because when I've try to get it separated from main Dash8 folder, an error on the model that affect the landing gear and propellers raise and others liveries disappear, so the only manner for me it's to put into the main floder of Q400. 

For resume all, unzip and put the all files into the Dash8 folder in the community foder of your release, MS or Steam. It's overwright the defaul files but so You can find Your prefered Wideroe livery with others.

 

SECOND SOLUTION

1* step 

Open the Layout.Json file in the main Dash8 aircraft folder and copy the text below and paste at the end of the file before the closing brackets
