Postby Darrayn » Thu May 20, 2004 6:14 am

Im fairly new to fs9 and I'm learning tol fly the Cessner 172 my question is is it possible to change the pilot and co-pilot that come with the aeroplane and give them some real identities I would like to add my own face to the person flying the areoplane. or do we have to have the people supplied ::)

Hi Darrayn, welcome to SimV.
It is possible to change the pilots face to your own if you have a photograph of yourself. The expert on this is Rifleman, I'll send him a PM to drop in to this thread and explain the details ;)

It is definately possible to change pilots, but you can only change the face surface textures which are already made as structures in the aircraft, ....its no different from changing colour schemes.....first you will need to go and read up on that part.....Hagar ( AKA Grumpy ) has some very good tutorials on how to do this and you will be able to find links to all the info necessary in the SimV "Help" section which I access from the " Site Map".....time is short right now, but if you want, send me a private message and I can assist you further....gotta run of to work at the moment, but will be back on in about 9 hrs......
Just remember when you change the look of the face, all you are doing is changing the surface and not the structure....a big nose will still be a big nose !
