The engine cowlings can be opened on the GE Engines only (Pax or Freighter).

You must remove the covers first (Aircraft EFB > Ground Equipment Page), and then you can open/close the cowlings via either of these ways:

• Walkaround Mode: Left Click the clickspot on the cowling itself for each engine.
• Aircraft EFB: Select the 'Aircraft Maintenance' app to access the Engine Cowling and other maintenance options.

Thanks!

Respected Developers,

I am facing two main problems. First is that I am unable to see any Liveries on my Aircraft. I download my liveries from INIManager but still unable to see the liveries. Second problem is that I am unable to see any engine covers on my Aircraft. But I can open the engine cowlings. Are there any solutions to my problem so that I can see my liveries as well as my engine covers? Thanks for your replies.

Can you confirm you have the version of the A300 you have installed?

• FS2024 Premium edition
• FS2024 Compatible edition

The liveries are not compatible between the two editions due to differences in model and file structure. The Premium Edition uses the new FS2024 Modular Simobjects structure, so only liveries made for this will be compatible.

The FS2024 Compatible Edition retains the same model & file structure as the FS2020 version of A300, as such liveries that work on FS2020 should work for FS2024 Compatible Edition as well. 

The FS2024 Premium Edition Liveries on the iniManager will have [PW] UPS (N149UP) as the first one for now.

  

 

The FS2024 Compatible Edition will have Airbus ACJ (D-AVZA) [PW] as the first one for now.

 

The team is working on an iniManager update that will make this clearer in the future:

Again please confirm the version you have installed, as the Engine Covers are only modelled on the FS2024 Premium Edition of the A300.

Thanks!

Respected Developer.
few days ago i purchased the A300 - 600 forb MSFS 2024 for 10 pounds with the code. So I want to know which version did I purchase and how do I purchase the premium?

You need to install the A300 premium version. You did purchase this but seem to have installed only the „compatible“ version, not the premium. With the version you have in your screenshot, you are installing the „compatible“ version to the MSFS2024 and 2020 but you need to install the „premium“ version which you can find in your account as well. 
Basically, you’ve just installed the „compatible“ 2020 version to the 2024, thats why the 2024 features won’t work in your 2024 sim right now.

Thanks @Incubus

@sujit Sorry for delayed reply, but yes as suggested above. You should ONLY install one of the two versions.

Based on your screenshot, you have currently installed the 2024 COMPATIBLE edition currently in FS2024.

Please uninstall this for FS2024.

Then go to the A300 2024 PREMIUM edition product page, and ensure only that is installed in your community folder.

Thanks!
