Stupid problem...

[Sterk]

Discription of my my aircraft for some reason daznt show up in sim menu.Really have no idea why...
In .cfg it's written:

description="Blablabla."-looks correct...

Any ideas?

[RIC_BARKER]

Can you copy and paste the first section of the cfg file to here, so we can get a look at it?

It could be alot of things at this stage.

Make sure your panel.cfg and sound.cfg files are correctly aliased.

Here is the first section of .cfg:

[fltsim.0]
title=TU334
sim=TU334
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=
kb_checklists=
kb_reference=
atc_id=Avrora
ui_manufacturer=Tupolev
ui_type=TU334
ui_variation=White
atc_heavy=0
atc_airline=Elia
atc_flight_number=007
description="The Tu-334 is a new  aircraft developed by the Tupolev design bureau to carrry passengers on short-halt and commuter routes(2000-2900km), with cruising speed 800-820km\\h.

could it be these " " ?

[Sterk]

No,cause description of all default aircraft(Boeings at least...)appears with these " "...

2Felix:
sound .cfg is correctly aliased,otherwise it wouldnt work...
as for panel...it has it's own panel,and it works correctly too...

[RIC_BARKER]

Does it simply not appear in the aircraft menu at all?

I get confused here.  If the model is not showing in the sim menu, how do you know it's working?  (I need things explained slowly to me today).

Try backing up the default 737 mdl file, and using your in it's place, with the name changed to "B737_400.mdl".

If your aircraft appears (minus textures), then the model is ok.

It could be the aircraft cfg file is messed up, or there is a problew with the textures. FS2k4 doesn't seem to like a mix of DXT3 an 32 bit textures. We had the same problem with the iFDG MD-11, although that produced a CTD, rather than it not being available in the menu.

Come on,guys,are u all sleeping?
I say-DESCRIPTION of my aircraft daznt show up-not my aircraft!My aircraft is absolutely o'key!
In

[Sterk]

Hm,it seems I cant post pictures here?

What is more strange-in .cfg description text appears between this "_" marks(commas I think it's name?),and if I open the sim and play a bit and then(after playing) I open .cfg file these commas desappear by itself!
I have no idea what's going on...

[Sterk]

Ok,this is really,really stupid problem as I named it in thread title-u know why description text dazn show up in menu?
Because I just copied and pasted text right from web page into cfg!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Despite that in cfg text appeared absolutely ok-sim daznt show it!
When I try to type text by myself-it fixed the problem...

Hrrrrr........
