FS Live Traffic Liveries: Base Models 1.7.0 released

Version 1.7.0 of FS Live Traffic Liveries’ Base Models is now available through the FBW installer. Developers emphasize the need to uninstall previous versions before installation to prevent residual unused folders. The update introduces four new aircraft types: Boeing 77W Freighter, CRJX, DHC6 Twin Otter, and Embraer E290. Additionally, over 150 real-world and historical liveries and 250 VA liveries have been added, expanding the collection to more than 2,800 variants. Several models, including Airbus A21N, Boeing 77W, BCS1, and DH8C, have undergone significant animation and configuration overhauls, featuring new fan blade animations, smoother engine and tire movements, and steering animations. Improved lighting setups have been applied to newly added and rebuilt models, with ongoing work for remaining aircraft. A separate post addresses changes to VATSIM .VMR files. The developers also hint at upcoming major changes that will enable more frequent future updates.
