Due to the actions of Flightsim.To's management, I am withdrawing my products from distribution on this platform.
My content continues to be available on https://novawing24.com/ and http://gumroad.com/novawing24
The living world philosophy of the Microsoft family of flight sims has always been one of its greatest assets. It has also been a problem in that we often did not see the tails of aircraft we are familiar seeing in the real world.
After working on my Orbit Airlines AI pack, I thought it might be worth putting together a pack of some real world airlines.
This first pack includes liveries for the default MSFS AI traffic models for the following airlines:
- Air France
- British Airways (Landor Livery)
- Finnair
- KLM
- Lufthansa (Yellow and White Crane versions)
- Ryanair
- Scandinavian Airlines (2020 livery)
- Swiss International
Package is a zip file. You will need to know the location of your Microsoft Flight Simulator Community folder to complete installation.
I also have an Oceania Airline Livery pack available https://flightsim.to/file/29611/msfs-ai-traffic-oceania-livery-pack
If you enjoy my work, why not shout me a coffee or support me on Patreon?
Keep an eye on my website http://novawing24.com/ and http://gumroad.com/novawing24 for my latest releases and premium content not found here!
A copy of the manual is available here: https://novawing24.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/MSFS-AI-Traffic-European-Livery-Pack-Readme.pdf
Thank you, with a simple download you solved a major problem. New models in your collection are welcome! I wish I had downloaded this earlier. Very good job!

The Oceana and Europe liveries are the same files. I am asked to overwrite the European liveries if I tried to install the Oceana ones.
2 years ago
I have just verified the content packages for both the Oceania and European packs, and they are different and do not conflict.
N24-aircraft-generic-livery-europe
N24-aircraft-generic-livery-oceania
They are different sizes and do not share content, so I am not sure what is happening for you. I would suggest redownloading both packages from Flightsim.to and trying to install again.

These won't match the callsigns of live traffic if I activate it, right?
2 years ago
It is designed to work with the Real Traffic mode of the sim, so yes it should match.
The AI system in sim is not entirely stable so it may not work 100%, but in testing it (along with my Oceania pack) it is fairly reliable.
However, please note that if an airline appears that is not covered by a livery in the library, it will be randomly assigned a livery by the sim. So you could see a TAP aircraft masquerading in BA colours.

I see no SAS liveries in Scandinavia, all have default liveries, and 95% off the rest is Lufthansa.
3 years ago
This addon the liveries are paired with their Real Life airline counterparts. ie if the FlightAware data being fed into MSFS shows a SAS aircraft, then the livery should be used (if it also a jet).
However the system used by Asobo is not perfect. It prioritizes aircraft type over airline, so if for example the IRL aircraft is an A320, then it will display one of the A320Neo traffic models and not the generic twin livery version of the airline, even if you have the airlines livery. (the main reason I included the Lufthansa A320Neo traffic model in the 2.0 release)
I have confirmed and seen the correct liveries being worn by the correct traffic within the sim.
If the airline is not one of the included liveries listed, then the sim randomly selects from the pool of available liveries to display to you. It is possible that the Lufthansa ones are being displayed more frequently as while there are two liveries, there are actually four entries. This is because Lufthansa and Lufthansa Cityline use different ICAO entries and as a result are duplicated here in this package. (same is also true for KLM and KLM City Hopper, don't worry I use aliasing so it doesn't take up additional space on your system).

Why do I see mostly Lufthansa Liveries?
3 years ago
This pack prioritizes matching with the matching Real World traffic airline data when using Real Time Traffic. All other traffic is randomly assigned a livery by the sim. It is possible that Lufthansa may appear more often as while there are two liveries there are actually four entries (Lufthansa and Lufthansa Cityline).

excellent product. I do have a couple of planes that are bright purple. I am removing them one by one from the community folder to identify which liveries are not loading. Have you any idea what could be causing this and is there a fix?
3 years ago
That sounds like it is not successfully reading the shared textures within this pack or the fallbacks in the main sim. I have not had this reported by any other user nor any of my testers. If you find any more information please let me know.

Can I use this together with https://flightsim.to/file/18285/easy-airlines-aircraft-matching-with-default-live-traffic
Or is there a conflict between these?
3 years ago
I do not use that product so I am unable to answer that for you. If you do try it, please let the community know your results.

Reitero nuevamente su gran e importante trabajo para llenar lo aeropuertos y cielos europeos. Muchas gracias.
Veo en los aeropuertos y en los cielos aviones de algunas compañias como Virgin, United, etcetera, que están con los colores de Lufthansa. Es asi? o es un defecto ?. Muchas gracias de nuevo.

Thanks for your message. That is not a defect. If an airline is not covered by installed AI, then it is randomly assigned a livery from the available pool. So yes you will see non-covered airlines wearing these liveries. This is realted to the logic system behind the live traffic in the sim.

To fill the European skies with more life, can you please include the rest of the European "TOP10" busiest airlines in your next updates? That would be Ryanair, easyJet, Turkish Airlines, KLM, Aeroflot, Pegasus and maybe Widerøes Flyveselskap. Eurowings and Vueling would be great too, but it's not Christmas yet ... 😀
