CFS2 planes in FS 2002?

[Guest Dominik Mann]

Hi all,last night I downloaded a couple of what I remembered to be the best CFS2 planes I ever had for use in FS 2002. Among these is the Messerschmitt Bf 110C as presented in a "photo shoot" over at the screenshots forum. However, when I select this plane in FS 2002 I will get the send/don't send thingy. I also downloaded the VB Planes Me 410, but here FS will crash immediately when I try to select it.I remember that you need to do something with CFS2 aircraft models to get them working in FS 2002...is that true? If so, what is it, and do I need some utility to perform it?Thanks! :D

Remove all the *.CDP and *.DP files from the aircraft folder and they will work :-)Brian

That easy? Why will the DP files cause CFS aircraft to malfunction in FS anyway?Thanks! :D

Even when you do that it is not a sure bet that they will work correctly. I've loaded the VB Lancaster, eliminated the two files and it still doesn't work right. The model morphs between lo and hi-res and only part of the VC shows :-( A couple that work VERY well are the Gryphon Mosquito and the Blue Arrow P-38J. Great VCs too. The 38 is here: http://www.the-hangar.net/CFS_Planes.htmI don't have Gryphon's website but check Simviation.com for the file.ToddKCOE
