Hi, I added a bunch of AI to the Aircraft Config for example I went to KMIA there were no 737-800 there! what is the problem?

You added AI to what aircraft.cfg ?AI aircraft will not display unless there is an associated Traffic file which calls for there use at various airports. You have not indicated that you have such a Traffic file in use.Please describe exactly what you did and perhaps someone will be able to assist you.

Just a quick PS to my earlier reply:It appears that you are not familiar with Traffic files and how they are constructed.It is almost imperative that you understand the "basics" of Traffic files and how AI flightplans work.I strongly urge you to download and carefully study the following "Ai Made Easy" Tutorial by Mike Stanton:http://library.avsim...s2004&Go=SearchOnce you get a basic understanding of how Traffic files are constructed, you may wish to use a free utility such as AI Flight Planner by Don Grovestine - available here:http://members.shaw.ca/aifp/As getting AI Traffic to work is considerably more involved than just adding some aircraft to your aircraft folder, you will need to invest some time in study and practice.It is not all that difficult and can a great source of satisfaction.

I just want to know how to add them to the aircraft config file to each aircraf

Well you really have me confused now - In your original post you stated that you added aircraft (repaints I suppose) to some aircraft.cfg files and you could not understand why they did not show up at airports.To me that suggests you that do know how to add to an aircraft.cfg file but do not understand how AI Traffic works. I provide some resources for you to study.Also here is a link which shows how to add Paints (variations/textures) to exisiting aircraft:http://www.simviation.com/lair/Repaint2002.htm

I added a repaint to the 737-800

Adding a repaint to the config file will not affect the Ai traffric in any way. It will allow you to select your new repaint to fly yourself in the aircraft selection screen and that is all. If your repaint doesn't show up in the aircraft selection screen then you haven't installed the repaint correctly. Your new repaint will not show as AI traffic because the AI traffic file has not been compiled with the new repaint included. See the other advice provided if you wish to do this.

I started studying opa's links and they seem to work for me now!
