You Can't Replace Objects in Liveries

Posted on 15:17 by Unknown
The livery system lets you replace the image files used by an aircraft's exterior paint, and it lets you replace the image files used by the objects that are attached to the plane via the "objects" folder.

But the livery system does not let you replace the objects themselves.

(It also doesn't let you replace or modify the actual ACF file or generally change the functional behavior of the plane. The livery system is just for paint, not airplane mods.)
