How do you alias a VC?

Postby Strawberry Yogurt » Tue Nov 23, 2010 5:52 pm

I was wondering how you alias a default VC to an addon aircraft without one; help would be much appreciated. I've been wondering how to do this for awhile... ;) ;) ;)
I went outside once. The graphics weren't all that great.

Burn the land and boil the sea, you can't take the sky from me.

You can only do this for aircrafts that are in native FSX format.
It will not work for planes that are in FS9 format.
And the FSX native planes without VC are extremely rare ;)
(just one or two liners, if I remember correctly).

ARe you sure about this? You may be right but I understood that the VC was built into the aircraft model file and could not be used in another.

perhaps I understood incorrectly.   :)

Thanks, I guess I'll download more native models than FS2004. Thanks again guys, you're a big help. ;)

Or just download FS9 aircraft with nice vitual cockpits. Quite a lot of them actually work fine in FSX ;)

Thanks Brett for the additionnal explanations :)
