KC-135 Stratotanker

What aircraft have you been unable to find after a long search? There may be an answer!

Okay, check the "Texture.kc-135r_usaf_2.." for a "thumbnail" JPG.  Also, did you add the "fltsim" entry from the texture download?  Remember to change the [fltsim.xx] to [fltsim.0]

I have a thumbnail, and yes I added the entry to the aircraft CFG. I think I've done everything you said, but nothing happens.

*Off Topic* I noticed your Adam Savage quote. Are you a fan of Mythbusters too? I think I need to get a life, because I have seen every episode. ;D ;D Oh wait I am typing my life now: School, Discoverfy Channel, and FSX! ;D ;D Wow, kinda sad. :'(

I'm somewhat mystified then.  Here's what my cfg for the "R" fltsim looks like:

********

[fltsim.0]                        // Change "xx" to next number in sequence starting from 0

atc_airline=AIR FORCE
atc_flight_number=8871
atc_heavy=0
atc_parking_codes=
atc_parking_types=MIL_CARGO,CARGO,RAMP

**********

The part above was the part that was pasted in from the texture download.  There was a "fltsim.0" in the original .cfg, so I deleted that fltsim.  You should only have 1 fltsim entry.
 If you've done that already, and you have the thumbnail (named "thumbnail"), then I'm at a loss.  The screenshot you posted of your file looks good, all the files are there.  Hmmmmm......

*Off Topic* I noticed your Adam Savage quote. Are you a fan of Mythbusters too? I think I need to get a life, because I have seen every episode. ;D ;D Oh wait I am typing my life now: School, Discoverfy Channel, and FSX! ;D ;D Wow, kinda sad. :'(


Yep.  Fan of the boys that like to make Big Boom! :)  Life?  What is this "life" thing of which you speak?   Wait!  It's coming back to me now. I used to have one of those, but I seem to have missplace it.   :o

That all looks good.  I'm going to download that same 135R and install it, and see what happens.  But it looks to me like there's no problem with your cfg.

I'm again, at a loss.  If the .cfg is good, and you've added a thumbnail.jpg to the texture file, it should be showing up.  That's all I did to mine, and they are both working as advertised.

For the "R" model, I'd use the 747 sound file. Similar engines.  I got the 707, but it uses a "glass cockpit" panel too.  I'd like  nice olde tyme analog gauge panel.  I think a C-141 panel would look closer to te real thing, but that's just me. :)

Just to make sure I didn't jump the rails, we are talking about adding this beasty up in FSX, right?

Re:  KC-135 Stratotanker

Postby Boikat » Mon Jun 16, 2008 11:58 pm

Okay, that looks good.  The only important part is the "[fltsim.0]", since that is the only thing you have to change from the texture download.

Step by step.

Downloaded the base and texture files and unzipped.

Edited the base download .cfg file per instructions in texture download folder.

Dropped the texture folder into the base file.

Checked the texture folder, and found that it did need that "thumbnail" jpg.  Keeping in mind, these ad-ons were probably designed with FS9 in mind, it would be natural that they did not have the thumbnail.

Installed in FS9 to get a screenshot to make the thumbnail. (It would have worked just as well to have grabbed the thumb from the download page)

Made the thumbnail and dropped it into the texture folder.

Installed in FSX.

Showed up just fine on the selection screen.

Took off, buzzed Shreveport Regional tower, but I digress.

Found the sound did not work, copied the sound folder from the 747 and replaced the original sound folder.  Also, just swapped out the panel folder with the panel from the C-141.  

Question:  On your selection screen, are *all* your thumbs matching up with the aircraft name?  Look carefully after the last "Boeing" image you see.  Is your Bombadier CRJ700 Orbit Airlines still "Bombadier CRJ700 Orbit Airlines"? Or is it called some sort of "Boeing KC-135R..." ?  :-?

And you have the thumbnail in the "texture" folder?  If so, I'm totally lost as to why the aircraft isn't showing up. :-?

yes..i do have the thumbnail inside the 'texture' folder ...well im in deep deep lost to..probably you can try doing on what i messaged you..

To reconfirm,i get the thumbnail from the 'download' page, where the picture of the kc-135r of my prefered texture is located (In my case, i tried two texture one at a time, the RSAF 2001 and RSAF 2008) i copied that thumbnail and renamed it 'thumbnail' , and paste it inside my 'texture' folder of my kc-135r .

Are you using the b707-700 panel?..how about the sound file?.

Did you check the panel.cfg? Mine showed it aliased to the 737-400 I believe... which is a no-go in FSX. Try to alias it to maybe the 737-800 that is in FSX. Im still trying to get mine to work, but I have yet to get a thumbnail. Will do that and see how it goes.

-EDIT-

Ok, got my thumbnail, and made sure the panel was aliased to something else (I chose the 747-400), got the exact engine sound (CFM56) and it showed up on my list. SO yea... I do think the only thing you are missing is the correct panel.cfg entry
