how to install jet city aircraft 717

Postby bha19 » Sat Sep 19, 2009 8:01 am

I downloaded the jet city aircraft boeing 717 and installed it. I also downloaded the fsx update and put the thumbnails and .cfg where they belong. The problenm is that the aircraft still does not show up in the aircraft menu. What could I have done wrong. Basically I am looking for an Air Tran 717. I use fsx deluxe sp2

Double check your .cfg to make sure the .cfg edit was saved.

Make sure the aircraft folder is placed inside the simobjects folder.

The plane is in the folder "Microsoft Flight Simulator X < SimObjects < Airplanes <", this is correct is it not?
2 questions that might be the problem.
1) I only got textures for 5 aircraft AirTran, Boeing, Jetstar, Olympic, and TWA but others are listed in the .cfg. Does that make a difference?

2)Can anybody verify that the .cfg texture text is correct for fsx. I had another plane I downloaded and found that the texture was not named correctly.

Below is my aircraft.cfg that pertains to the flisim's.  My suggestion would be to make sure that your sim's are sequentially number 0, 1, 2, etc.  Do not skip numbers and do not have any thing like 0, 1, 2, xx, 4, 5.  It has been my experience that you have have a sim in the middle and use XX as the number or something else to deactivate the sim then it may cause problems.

It has been awhile since I messed with this, but as I recall some of the textures would not display correctly and I also downloaded some new textures from Avsim so my textures may not agree with yours.  I would delete any sims out of you cfg file that you do not have textures for and whatever is left make sure that you have them numbered in order.

Also check and make sure that you have correctly entered the correct folder location for model, panel, sound and texture.  Note that in my cfg, panel is only "panel=" and sound is only "sound=" that is becuase the panel folder is only named "panel" same thing with the sound folder.
