Hi Gentlemen...
Wonderful aircraft! In fact they all are! But this involves the L1011.
I have downloaded several of the base files and note there is an aircraft.cfg file in each but not an aircraft.fsx.cfg file. The instructions state that I need to delete the aircraft.cfg file and rename the aircraft.fsx.cfg file to aircraft. cfg to have success in FSX.
Am I missing something? Where are the aircraft.fsx.cfg files.
Many thanks
Roy Marsh

I have the same question. Not quite sure how to proceed.

So far as I'm aware .... there "IS NOT and "SHOULD NOT" be an FSX specific AIRCRAFT.CFG. The CFG file provided has dual FS2004 and FSX compatibility .... SO .... ignore any installation instruction references to FSX specific AIRCRAFT.CFG files and proceed with what you've got. Any reference, within those aircraft base pack installation instructions, to FSX specific CFG files is an oversight which should have been removed from those instruction prior to uploading, but, obviously wasn't  ;D Mark C AKL/NZ |

Hi everyone.
I'm having similar experiences with the L1011 and also the DC-9 as reported above. So far, no luck.
Anyone with success that can share a secret..?? Thanks!!
Peace to all!

Please read the guidelines, and tell us precisely where you are NOT doing as described. Then it would be much easier for us to tell you what to do .... Peace to you too  |

If your aircraft are not showing up in FSX the problem may be one of the following.
1. Make sure that you have unchecked DX10 Preview in FS display.
2.Make sure that aircraft.fsx file has been changed to aircraft. As mentioned by Mark in the case of the L1011 this is not required.
3.Make sure that the panel.fsx and sound.fsx files are used and renamed panel and sound.
I hope this helps.

The DX10 Preview setting will not result in a no-show, but will show a grey/blank model instead ....
Please go through one of the guides I've made, and follow it like it is intended to be followed, you should be safe....

Whoohoo! I've figured out my challenge to these aircraft not showing up to select.
We must delete the following comment from their aircraft.cfg file: // Change "xx" to next number in sequence starting from 0
Strike that writing from the file and they magically appear in FSX...
So...I'm officially now a Hawaiian Airlines L-1011 pilot and currently enroute from PDX to HNL while watching Sunday Night Footbal (go Seahawks)!
Aloha and peace to all!

Well, that shouldn't be an issue at all as it is just that: a comment. So I'm pretty sure that your problem was a different place, but never mind, if it works for you, I wish you happy flying, and glad your sorted .... Happy New Year.
