All my additional repaints for the Lear45 no longer load. What is needed to bring them back to life? 
How to repair liveries to comply with recent FS2 updates

Probably the option.tmc file situation.
The repaint.tmr file is no longer supported.

Where can I find the option.tmc file? It isn't in any of the addon plane folders that I have.

Thanks! Found it, used the default MB-339 option.tmc and now get the new skins. Just a slight problem, they are all called "Peruvian Air Force" in the aircraft selection menu (even though the desired DLC skin is shown). A minor irritation, but curious if there is an easy way to fix.
Found the easy fix, just had to edit the option.tmc file to change the name. Obvious, of course...
All is well now.

The option.tmc file replaced the repaint.tmr a while ago. It can define the name of a livery but you can also attach new parts to the aircraft available just with that repaint.
We use this to add new wing tips in the a320, the low skids in the ec135 but you can really get creative with this feature. You could have external loads (that physically add mass to the plane as well as aerodynamic forces), different tire sizes, different landing gear options like skids, floats, wheels, tricycle, tail wheel, 3 bladed prop vs 2 bladed prop, new landing light color (e.g. brighter LED lights), different panel configuration or colors....

So maybe tundra tires, skis, and floats could possibly be in our future. Neat.
User aircraft could already add these with the current option.tmc files.
So one could combine the Piper Cub float and non float variants for example...
