My new Installed Viper F-16 does not appear in my selection list. :(

Featured Replies

Recently I downloaded Olson's Viper F-16 and installed as per the instructions.1. Unziped/with folder2. Moved the VIPER folder to the Aircrafts folder within FSim9.3. Copied the effects files and the Gauge files respectively..Then I went into FSim... But I can't see that on my selection list.I have installed many aircrafts..this has never happened.What could I be doing wrong...

Did you follow all the instructions? They also tell you to download and install a specific F-16 panel and though it may be optional, an afterburner effect that is part of another aircraft package. Kirk even gives the links to these two items in his instructions. If the panel is not installed, the aircraft will not show in the menue. Hope this helps. I was some what intimindated by this at first, but believe me, the final result is worth it.Tony

Thanks Tony,I thought that was an Optional thingi... OK..then that might be it.. I'll do that today.Thanks.:)

I didn't install the panel and it works fine. Look for 'Lockheed Martin' in the list and it should appear there provided the plane is correctly installed. It's worth it, as the F-16 is a beautiful bird! Best regards, Chris

Hi Manny,It's just possible you installed the wrong Viper folder (?!). Expand the Viper folder and see whether there is another folder with the same name. If so, then that's the one you should install in the aircraft folder.Mike

I got it... It was under Lockeed Martin... I was looking for Viper-F16 or something...Sorry about that.. and thanks guys.

I have installed the plane and the panel but the HUD and radar screens along with the three round gauges on the far right side of the panel are missing. Anyone else having this problem?Roger Hollands

Yup.. I have similar problems..When I installed the IAF (Israeli Air Force) paint job... I get a totally black screen with a couple of switches visible..Hmmmm....from outside the Plane..it looks great.. and I love landing this sucker.. Its fairly steady...Is it this steady in landing configuration... for real? Anyone knows?Hmm.....
