*** FOR FSL A320 v5.0.100+ ONLY ***
This download is mandatory for liveries that are referenced by it as it contains shared common files that are required to change the appearance of common FSL A320 parts used in these repaints.
About this file
This is a shared library of modified textures that contains common files for the custom 4K PBR A320 v5.0.1.100+ paint kit created by Hugo Bicho, Daniel Du Preez and John Tavendale. A new Airplanes\FSLabs A32X\Texture.CommonProfHBJT folder has been created and common files shared with all repaints are included here. This saves on drive space and simplifies management of liveries created from the custom kit. Repaints made from this kit have a special texture.cfg file that references this folder as a fallback and will be shown on the model when loaded into P3D.
Installation instructions:
1. Drag the FSLabs A32X folder contained in this download to your {Prepar3D v5 Add-ons}\FlightSimLabs\FSLabs\SimObjects\Airplanes folder
2. After installation, your {Prepar3D v5 Add-ons}FlightSimLabs\FSLabs\SimObjects\Airplanes\FSLabs A32X should look like this:
3. Installation is complete! You do not need to repeat this for any additional liveries that require this download if you’ve already completed the steps above
