Hi All,

I am somewhat newish to FSX I played it years ago and want to get back in to it, the AI and maybe then upgrade the sim since I just bought a new PC.

I was fine at adding Ai aircraft in to FS2004, I used to make them all "visible" to check I had installed them properly before installing the traffic file.

In FSX I am really struggling to get them to show, and I have either missed something, or its just not possible.

I decided to start by installing airlines that fly in to my closest airport, so in alphabetical order Aegean ended up first. As such, having this problem with the first freeware aircraft to go on my PC, FAIB's A321 IAE variant. Textures as per AIGs FP are the normal, named and visit greece. One _t file in each of the texture folders.

I have added a "panel" and "sound" folder to the FAIB_A321_IAE and created a text file in each called "sound" and "panel" with the following text in each:

[fltsim]
alias=Airbus_A321\panel

[fltsim]
alias=Airbus_A321\sound

This points to the default A321 folder

I have then in each aircraft.cfg fltsim.x entry added panel= and sound= as these are the first 3 models to install It looks as follows:

[fltsim.0]
title=Aegean Airlines Airbus A321-200
sim=faib_a321
model=IAE
panel=
sound=
texture=AEE
atc_id=SX-DVP
atc_airline=AEGEAN
atc_parking_types=GATE
atc_parking_codes=AEE,OAL
ui_manufacturer=Airbus
ui_type=A321-200
ui_variation=Aegean Airlines
description=FSX Airbus A321-200 Aegean Airlines - SX-DVP

[fltsim.1]
title=Aegean Airlines Airbus A321-200 - named
sim=faib_a321
model=IAE
panel=
sound=
texture=AEEN
atc_id=SX-DVO
atc_airline=AEGEAN
atc_parking_types=GATE
atc_parking_codes=AEE,OAL
ui_manufacturer=Airbus
ui_type=A321-200
ui_variation=Aegean Airlines - Named
description=FSX Airbus A321-200 Aegean Airlines - SX-DVO

[fltsim.2]
title=Aegean Airlines Airbus A321-200 - discovergreece.com
sim=faib_a321
model=IAE
panel=
sound=
texture=AEED
atc_id=SX-DGA
atc_airline=AEGEAN
atc_parking_types=GATE
atc_parking_codes=AEE,OAL
ui_manufacturer=Airbus
ui_type=A321-200
ui_variation=Aegean Airlines - Discover Greece
description=FSX Airbus A321-200 Aegean Airlines - SX-DGA

There must be something I have missed, but I dont know what.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks

 

 

As an example for [fltsim.0] add this to it and see if it shows.

fltsim.0]
title=Aegean Airlines Airbus A321-200
sim=faib_a321
model=IAE
panel=Airbus_A321/panel
sound=
texture=AEE
atc_id=SX-DVP
atc_airline=AEGEAN
atc_parking_types=GATE
atc_parking_codes=AEE,OAL
ui_manufacturer=Airbus
ui_type=A321-200
ui_variation=Aegean Airlines
description=FSX Airbus A321-200 Aegean Airlines - SX-DVP

Still no luck. Its odd.

Do I need to go in to the .air file and set it at 0....even though for fsx that appears not to matter?
