Braniff 707-320C

[aris2747]

I am trying to have several of the Braniff 707-320C in my FS9 directory. I am only able to display 2 of the aircraft in my menu. I can display several of the other airlines, if I so choose.
Any ideas on the problem with the excellent planes painted by Michael Verlin.

Thank You

Larry Gearheart

Have you added the proper text in the 'aircraft.cfg' in numerical sequence that relates to each aircraft in question?

I presume you're trying to add a selection of BRANIFF B707-320C textures (ADD TO AIRCRAFT data) to the same AIRCRAFT.CFG file .... right !

Something like this (my own of installed chain of B707-320C textures) maybe ....

If I'm interpreting your problem correctly ..... I'd say all you've done wrong is committed a very minor CFG editing error somewhere within the chain of texture addition you want FS to display.

Have a close look at the following "SPECIMEN" data. The critical ADD TO AIRCRAFT entries all appear bold typed ....

Make sure all the bold typed data is correct for "EACH" of the textures you want FS to display.

Also ....

1. If you're adding a chain of textures (as per my first sample above) then make sure that your very first FLTSIM= entry reads "0" .... and that all subsequent FLTSIM= additions appear in correct numerical sequence .... as follows ....

[fltsim.0]
[fltsim.1]
[fltsim.2]
etc

2. Make sure that your SIM= data lines reads correctly for each addition

3. Check that your MODEL= data lines read correctly for each texture .... all BRANIFF B707-320C textures use our standard B707-320C model .... meaning you MODEL= data lines should all be reading model "MODEL="

4. And also make sure that your TEXTURE= data lines read precisely in accordance with the Texture folder name ..... please note my own texture naming preference (in the above specimen) does differe from default HJG protocol.

The above 4 suggestions, in particular, are "CRITICAL". The slightest error within any of these CFG data lines is sufficient .... and the most common cause .... for textures not displaying within the MSFS AIRCRAFT SELECTION MENU.

Check also that you are applying B707-320C textures only to our B707-320C Aircraft Base Pack .... AND .... that you haven't got a valid texture folder maybe still within another containing folder from the original ZIP file. This won't help matters either.

If all this is done .... "CORRECTLY" .... and our installation instructions followed .... "TO THE LETTER" .... then there's no logical reason for these aircraft not to display within FS.

Thanks for all of the help, but I finally solved my own problem. On most of the Title in .cfg the Title were identical and I failed to notice this until after I asked for help.
Thanks again for all of the help, now if I can only get it to work in FSX.

No problem !

Glad you fixed things .... and can now enjoy everything !

now if I can only get it to work in FSX.

They are FSX compatible .... kindly refer to the FSX installation notes (on our "FSX SUPPORT" forum) written by my HJG colleagure DAn K.HANSEN.

You should find these extremely helpful !
