Imported aircraft versus other imported aircraft

[llamedosal1]

Hi Peeps.
First post and all that....

I've imported a few WW1 aircraft into CF1 and what I want to do is fly them against each other, but all I can do is pit an imported plane against the 'fixed' drop down list of opposition aircraft within the game.

Is there any way I can select an imported plane to fly against another imported plane? i.e. place an imported aircraft into the "enemy aircraft type" list?

Flying a Spad XIII against a ME109 is interesting but lacks longevity!  ;)

Cheers

In a mission? Open any specific mission file (.mis) you wish and replace an opposing aircraft folder name with that of the imported plane's folder name. I have taken an excerpt from one of my own WW1 mission files: the navy blue section is your units section and I've marked each aircraft folder name in red (make sure that you use the specific name of the aircraft's folder that's in the main CFS aircraft folder, not the name from your drop down list in game play). You can, of course, change the weapons load, as well (but will still be limited to the weapons .dp of the specific aircraft you're entering).

Hi. If this is for Quick Combat you can add any installed aircraft to the QC database with QC Editor by Jaesen Jones. http://www.simviation.com/cfs1utilitites4.htm

These usually buzz around like demented hornets unless you rescale them. My walkthrough on creating special AI Only drones for CFS1 might interest you. http://www.simviation.com/lair/AI%20drones.htm

Thanks, Hagar; looking back at his original post, that's what he may have meant. I've edtied my .qcb with word/notepad, as well, but that may be a little much.
