Liveries for -800W

[Alex B. 0]

Hey Guys (and Gals)

 

I just got the PMDG 737 boxed set when it was on sale through Aerosoft and it's a great bird.  The problem I'm having is getting some of the textures for the -800W to show up.  I have the texture folder in place and the aircraft.cfg changed (added the plane I'm trying to put in) but when I go to pick the plane out...it's not there.  Nothing at all.  Everything is in place...unless I'm missing something.  The only plane I have in there that I've added is in United colors (post merger).  Can't add any AAL or Continental.

 

Thanks for any help you folks can offer....

There it is Matt...thanks

Alex,

 

could you also post a screenshot of the PMDG 737-800WL folder.

 

Regards,

 

Matthew

Those two entries are a mess !

 

title=title=......  !!!

 

sim=B737-800  .......wrong .air file name

 

model=VC ....wrong model name

 

Peter

[Alex B. 0]

I posted the pic (I hope)...

Peter...the UAL livery for the -800W is the only one showing up.  If it's a mess...it's working.  The others are not.

[pschlute 37]

Alex

 

The United will show up because [fltsim.3] entry is correct.

 

.4 and .5 are incorrect and will not work. What is more they are preventing any subsequent entries .6 .7 etc from showing

 

Peter

Alex

 

Change as follows:

 

[fltsim.4]
title=PMDG B737-823 (Winglets) United
sim=B737-800WL
model=WL

 

[fltsim.5]
title=PMDG B737-823 (Winglets) United
sim=B737-800WL

 

and all will be good.

 

Peter

[Alex B. 0]

Peter...Ok, I got ya.  Gimmie a wee bit, flying now but will change now.  Won't know if it works till on the ground. 

 

Thanks

 

P.S.  When I change that, will the others work...the Continental as well?  It only has 1 listing in the aircraft.cfg text, where as the others have 3

[pschlute 37]

Which is the continental one ?  I cant see an entry in the .cfg file for that

 

Peter

[Alex B. 0]

Peter...Cancel the P.S.  I forgot I took the Continental out.  Will reinstall it.  It only had 1 listing for the aircraft.cfg file, where as the others have 3

[pschlute 37]

If you look at the first three entries for the PMDG livery plane that will give you a guide how the entries should work. I have only copied here the relevant bits so you can see them easily. Use the full entries when editing the .cfg file.

 

Three entries are for the same aircraft texture:

 

 

[fltsim.0]
title=PMDG 737-800 - Winglets      ...this is the 2d cockpit only
sim=B737-800WL
model=WL                                     ..... this is the model for 2d cockpit
panel=                                          ........ this panel only has the 2d cockpit
sound=
texture=                                         all three texture entries will be the same ...
atc_id_color=0xffffffff
atc_id=N738PM
atc_airline=
atc_flight_number=737
ui_manufacturer=Boeing-PMDG
ui_type=737-800 - 2D Cockpit Only                
ui_variation=PMDG w/Winglets
 

[fltsim.1]
title=PMDG 737-800 - Winglets Virtual Cockpit     ...... as it says this is the 2d AND VC cockpit variation
sim=B737-800WL
model=WLVC                                                        different model as it includes the VC
panel=VC                                                               different panel as it includes the VC
sound=
texture=                                                                same as other texture entries
atc_id_color=0xffffffff
atc_id=N738PM
atc_airline=
atc_flight_number=737
ui_manufacturer=Boeing-PMDG
ui_type=737-800 - Virtual Cockpit                   ...different entry from above as this is the VC version
ui_variation=PMDG w/Winglets
 

[fltsim.2]
title=PMDG 737-800 - Winglets Virtual Cockpit/Cabin     ..... last version includes the 2d AND VC AND Cabin
sim=B737-800WL
model=WLVCCAB                                                           ...... different model again ...as cabin is included
panel=VC
sound=
texture=
atc_id_color=0xffffffff
atc_id=N738PM
atc_airline=
atc_flight_number=737
ui_manufacturer=Boeing-PMDG
ui_type=737-800 - Virtual Cockpit & Cabin    ....different again as this is 2d plus VC  plus Cabin

ui_variation=PMDG w/Winglets
 

 

Now what I do in my set up is ONLY use one [fltsim.x] entry for each aircraft texture. So I only use the text in the last version ...the 2d plus VC plus cabin.  It makes it a lot easier to edit the .cfg file

 

Peter

[pschlute 37]

if you want to use my method , just use the following instead of the current entries (make a backup first), and you will have simpler entries with all aircraft showing the 2d;VC;and cabin

 

If you use the PMDG auto installer to add new textures you will need to edit the .cfg file afterwards. Just make sure all [fltsim.x] entries start at 0 and go up incrementally.

Peter...thanks a much.  Yea, I wish there was an auto installer for those but there isn't.  Prob cause it's for FS9.  Will add them now.

 

Thanks again for your help.  Will report back when on the ground so this can show issue fixed.
