PMDG 737-800 LOT (SP-LWB- 2022)
Fellow simmers,
Here is my Livery of the PMDG 737 for MSFS2020.
The PMDG line of products use their custom utility called The PMDG Operations Center (OC2).
To maintain your entire PMDG fleet of aircraft (The DC-6 as well you own it), also provides you with a very easy way to install/uninstall/update your liveries. Please follow the detailed instructions below to install this paint. It may look like a lot of steps, but I made sure every step was covered from download to install.
NOTE: I will not offer this as a “Drag and Drop” livery as this method, while operational, does not ensure everything is created properly in the complex MSFS folder structure. When painters use the OC to package their paint, the installer takes care of all the items needed (json updates, aircraft .cfg edits, etc) automatically.
Also…should updates to the aircraft become available, the OC ensures all items are updated properly.
Here are the instructions:
1. Extract the PTP file from the downloaded zip file.
2. Place it anywhere your PC (typically the downloads folder).
DO NOT place it in the MSFS folder structure, including the Community folder (The OC2 will properly extract it there and update the Layout.json file automatically)
3. Press the Windows key on your keyboard
4. Type PMDG
5. Select the PMDG Operations Center and open as an Administrator
6. Follow these steps when Ops Center is open.
1. Click the Aircraft and Liveries menu
Choose Livery Utilities
2. Select the Simulator,Select the Product,Select the Variant
3. Click Install from PTP file
7. After the Open window opens, navigate to the folder you saved/extracted the PTP file to
8. Click Open.
9. Done
If you would like the special red signature on the nose, please do the following
1. go to your Community\pmdg-aircraft-738-liveries\SimObjects\Airplanes\PMDG 737-800 LOT (SP-LWB- 2022)\texture.SP-LWB folder
2. Copy the PMDG_NG3_F1_ALBD.PNG.DDS that is in that folder to another folder outside of the MSFS folder structure (make a backup of it in case you want to fly without the signature up front)
3. take the PMDG_NG3_F1_ALBD.PNG.DDS file that is included in this zip file and paste it into the
Community\pmdg-aircraft-738-liveries\SimObjects\Airplanes\PMDG 737-800 LOT (SP-LWB- 2022)\texture.SP-LWB folder
That's it! If you want to fly the livery without the red signature, just do the same process but replace the file you backed up with the one in the Community\pmdg-aircraft-738-liveries\SimObjects\Airplanes\PMDG 737-800 LOT (SP-LWB- 2022)\texture.SP-LWB folder.
If you have any issues with the installation of the livery through the OC2, please contact PMDG Support at https://support.precisionmanuals.com/Main/
You an also go to their forums as many members can help with issues and the support team monitors there as well.
A special thanks goes to PMDG and the beta test crew I had the privilege to work with during the development of this fantastic plane.
Credits: All base textures included in my paints are included by permission from PMDG, as with any livery created by 3rd party painters. I would especially thank the PMDG Paint crew for the fantastic textures they gave us to work with, you guys are awesome!

Thanks, Good Job. Only a couple things on the right side of the plane. Polish Airlines text is to far from LOT text. IATA logo and text should be only on the right side of the plane. LOT text on the inner side of the engines is to large. Shold be the same size as on the oudside side.

Good catches. I think you mean IATA logo on the LEFT side only. :) I put one on the right side by accident and didn't catch it before release.
I'll make the other adjustments suggested and have an update out shortly.
I'm also putting the LOT logo text on the Yoke checklist. Sadly part of its covered by the clip but there is nothing I can do about that.
