Okay, I found it here - http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?Ca ... DLID=33645

However, I have that already. I downloaded the Continental textures that Peter123 had with his screenshots, and I got the textures now. I have moved them into the planes texture folder, but I have a plane white plane.

I am doing something wrong, yet I can't place my finger on what I am doing wrong.

Anyone care to help out a confused young whippersnapper?

Thanks.

I e-mailed the producer of the textures and he e-mailed me back saying "ck the aircraft config.file".

I am guessing that 'ck' means check. I just don't know what I am checking for.

Anybody?  ???

I assume this is in FS2002 or FS2004, both allow you to have multiple textures for an aircraft.  Here is a little tutorial thatDoug made that walks you through it.   ;)

It's the same process, just in the DC-10 your working with.

Nope, I tried, and now the aircraft does not show on the select arcraft screen.

I think I'll have to ask Peter123 to send his airraft.cfg file to me.

Yeah, thats probably the best way to go then.

Okay this is what I have done:

I have downloaded the base pack
I have downloaded the textures
I delete all textures in base pack.
I move the textures to the base pack textures folder.
I got Peter123 to send me the Aircraft.cfg and put it in my Dc10-30 folder replacing the old one.

Still not working. Any ideas?

Hey, HappyHammer,

Sorry for the late reply.

In the aircraft.cfg, the texture folder is just normally called 'texture' by default, and is blank in the .cfg file (e.g. texture= ). If your texture folder has extra identifying characters e.g. texture.continental or texture.1, then in the cfg file, the reference would be texture=continental or texture.1.

Does this help?

:)
