May 10, 200521 yr I'm having a problem viewing the cockpit when I add a downloaded plane to my Aircraft folder. The cockpit view is all black (yes it is in daytime too) and I cannot see any control panel or front view of the windscreen. When I try to look at other views, however, everything else is fine. Even the "W" key works.The instructions for the download just said to place the whole plane folder in the FS9 Aircraft folder. This has also happened to a couple of other downloads.Any ideas?
May 10, 200521 yr Those instructions came with a recently released freeware commercial jet. I won't mention the name in case you are not experiencing difficultiy with that product. I have read that others have had similar problems...as did I. In checking the forums, it was suggested that the downloaded folders should be place in the FS9 MAIN folder...NOT the "Aircraft" folder as the instructions state.Doing so fixed the problem for me.If we're not talking about the same package then putting the files into MAIN may not be the solution.Regards,Jim
