How to install with JSGME :
1) Simply place the folder (unziped) into : *Your HD*:\DCS World\_Mods
2) Activate it with JSGME
Work also with the OpenBeta 2.7.

NOTE : To be able flying online with the client protection, an installation with JSGME (or equivalent soft) is recommended.
Thoses textures, even in 8K, are NOT impacting the FPS performances. It just take a few tiny secondes more to load than the original M2000C textures :D
BUG REPORT AND "FIX" : For unknow reasons thoses 8K textures show a full black skin when the texture setting in DCS are se t on "low" or "medium" (the livery in 8K ca not be loaded in those settings). You will be able to see this texture only with the DCS texture set on "HIGH" !
