Where do I get the free liveries?

There were mentions of several free liveries that come with the plane however every link I tried either takes you off-site to another site with no liveries or it loads a giant ad.. and still no liveries.

Is there a website section I'm missing or something? The house livery is nice and all but its not a real airline lol

Run ACE: Start > Captain Sim > 777 ACE MSFS2020

To add a new livery:
(o) Online > download > Save

To delete a livery:

(o) Local > select one > Delete

If you can't find/run ACE

This is something that is SIMPLE, but unfortunately it's SO SIMPLE, that Captain Sim presumes it's simple enough not to actually document it well. What they don't realize, is that many are buying this MSFS2020 777 model who have no previous experience with Captain Sim; how their livery adding works, and what "SimOps" even is.

At this point you should have downloaded and installed the 777 model, and you can access it through MSFS2020.
You can select and fly the 777-200ER, but only have the 'basic', standard livery, yes?

In order to access the other, free liveries that are mentioned you will need to do the following:

You will need to locate the Captain Sim program folder. I run ClassicShell on my Windows 10 computer, so unfortunately I can not help you in detail how to get to the program you need to get to. On my computer it's as simple as going to the bottom left, clicking START, then PROGRAMS, and then selecting CAPTAIN SIM. There you will see a 'program' called ACE. That is what you will need to run. It is there, that you can download and install all the other free liveries for your 777-200ER.

Hope this helps!  Wink

Also, there's an "Important Topic" thread on ACE that might help (although even that doesn't actually state how to access/run it!  Roll Eyes.
Look for a THREAD called "ACE" at the top of the forum listings.

After you click on Download, and it finishes downloading, you have to click on Save for the livery to be added in MSFS.

The livery files are saved to X:\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Community\captainsim-aircraft-m772\Captain_Sim\ace\zip folder (at least that's where they are on my PC (in my case, MSFS is installed on my E: drive, not my C: drive)).

When will we get proper liveries with cabin exterior lights? Not the ones from FSX.
