Hi how are  you doing.

My name is Kenny;


I downloaded the Boeing B17-G Flying Fortress for FS2000 and CFS2. I'm having a problem with it installing it on cfs2. It locks like some files are missing. I'm new to csf2 I'v worked with FS2002, and can install the aircraft there just fine. but csf2 is a bit different .

The B17-G Flying Fortress I downloaded from Simuiation from the csf2 part dose'ent seam to have all the file to install it to cfs2 the file that are missing are, effects, objects,  scendb, and textures.

Like I sed I'm new to csf2, and still learning . are these file important for the aircraft addons to work no csf2 ,and if so would someone  by abel to help me to fix this problem I'm having?

Hi Kenny. CFS2 is basically no different to FS2000 or FS2002. In fact many CFS2 aircraft were developed in FS2000 first. I don't know which particular B-17 you're having problems with. First of all make sure it's a complete aircraft & not simply a repaint. Then check the Panel & Sound CFG files in Notepad to make sure they're not aliased to an FS2000 default aircraft you don't have in CFS2. This can be easily fixed. My Aliasing article should help. http://www.simviation.com/lair/aliasing1.htm

If you still have problems please post again. A link to the page the aircraft is posted on would help.
