e3 will not work

[crewchief351]

hey everyone, i have been trying to install the e3 for a few days now. i have followed the directions and i still cannot get this model to work. FSX will not display it on the list of aircraft. is there anything that im doing wrong. here is what i have,

// Add your [fltsim.xx] sections here.

[fltsim.0] // Change "xx" to next number in sequence starting from 0
title=Boeing/USAF E-3c-Sentry
sim=e-3c
model=E3C
panel=
sound=
texture=usaf_2006_e3c_80-0137
kb_checklists=
visual damage=1
description=Boeing/USAF E3C Sentry 80-0137

atc_id=
atc_heavy=1
atc_airline=Air Force
atc_flight_number=0137
atc_parking_codes=
atc_parking_types=CARGO,RAMP

i renamed the panel cfg file to say,

[fltsim]
alias=panel.b707-320badvc.1970

im just using this one model so im not using a fsfsconv folder in the main airplane folder

i renamed the files within the panel.b707-320badvc.1970 to say panel.cfg to panel_fs2004.cfg - panel_fsx to panel.cfg.

i have copied all core files, gauges, effects, sound with no luck. is there something that im doing wrong. i have been able to install this model before, but for some reason i have not had any luck doing it a second time. i had to reboot the computer so i lost all of the original files. that is why im going through this again.

have you got the right base pack installed for this texture, as I have done this in the past, and also have you done this??


BASE PACKS
=====================================================================
(1) Unzip all base pack files to the aircraft folder of Flight Simulator.
(2) If you are running FSX, delete the file "aircraft.cfg" and rename the file "aircraft_fsx.cfg" to "aircraft.cfg". This must be done before any textures are installed.

this is just a way of helping and eliminating your problem

hey bob, just deleted the main file then i reinstalled per instructions. still no luck.

If you reinstalled as per instructions it works. If it doesn't you did not install as per instructions
