Help plz.How do i locate and deactivate airport?

Postby jonny typhoon » Fri Jan 30, 2009 7:07 am

I have just installed the LAGO MB339 PAN plane which includes Rivolto airport and formation flying.
It says i should deactivate the default Rivolto for it to work.How do i do this? They're all coded,i cannot locate it.
Any help much appreciated.

I know its code is LIPI... why would you need to deactivate the airport to make a plane work?

There are two types of aeroplane, Spitfires and everything else that wishes it was a Spitfire!

Thanks.
The plane works. It comes with add on scenery,Rivolto. It suggests deactivating the default Rivolto. I go to the options,click and it takes my plane to a field.Rivolto is not there.The training instructers voice is there.

When i go to scenery,europe,the codes are all 2 letters followed by 6 numbers :-/

Did you activate the add-on airport in Settings/Addon Scenery? If so, the Lago airport should override the default one without any problem.

Can you copy/paste the instructions that came with the airplane here? So we can understand better what is going on.

''using freece tricolori with other sceneries covering the same area can cause conflict.We suggest to deactivate any existing scenery of the same area before installing freece tricolori.''


Im not sure how to add scenery.I did go to scenery library,and added the main file,but it wouldnt allow me to add the scenery file specifically.
Sorry,just not very up on all this. I download aircraft off the internet okay,at least!

A tutorial on installing scenery the right way: here.

Now on the other problem. They don't give any specific files to delete / rename?

''SCENERY.CFG:
tHE INSTALLATION PROGRAM AUTOMATICALLY ADDS THE REQUIRED LINES IN THE FS9\SCENERY.CFG FILE.
BEFORE MODIFYING THIS FILE A BACKUP COPY OF THE ORIGINAL FILE IS MADE IN:
SCENERY_CFG_BEFORE [PRODUCT NAME]_[DATE]_[TIME].TXT''

This is going to be a wild guess. But try to install FSUIPC.DLL (VERSION 3.85). You can find it here. Make sure you get the FS2004 version. Follow the instructions on installing the .dll (it should go into the Modules folder) Let me know if this works.

I don't give up that easily. There is an update available on this page. Version 1.04. See if that helps a bit.

Crash ;)

PS. Don't worry about the page being for Cloud9. It's the same package as Lago Frecce Tricolore.
