For SkylineGTRFreak's FA-18E

Once installed with their instructions, open the dlc.rpf with OpenIV

Follow this path to the file to overwrite:

...\GTAV\mods\update\x64\dlcpacks\fa18e\dlc.rpf\x64\levels\gta5\vehicles\vehicles.rpf\fa18e1.ytd

If you wish to retain the original livery pack, while in OpenIV, extract the file fa18e1.ytd.  I typically extract the original .ytd to the same folder as the dlc.rpf and rename it to origfa18e1.ytd.

When ready to overwrite with one of the provided liveries, toggle "Edit mode", top right button, and drag fa18e.ytd from the extracted zip file and drop here: 

...\GTAV\mods\update\x64\dlcpacks\fa18e\dlc.rpf\x64\levels\gta5\vehicles\vehicles.rpf\fa18e1.ytd

Just to confirm the livery, I'd click on the fa18e.yft or fa18e_hi.yft file to open the OpenIV Model Viewer to see what the model will look like with the new livery.

Once satisfied, close the model viewer and run GTAV and spawn fa18e with the trainer of your choice.


Enjoy,
Gillman
