Using FSX aircraft in FS9?

Featured Replies

I would love to get the air creation trike working in FS9. Has anyone tried moving aircraft BACK? I have had some success in bringing aircraft from FS9 to FSX, but have yet to try the reverse. Suggestions?

Tried dropping the folder from simObjects>airplanes into FS9>aircraft, but no luck. It complains about the .mdl file.Surely I am not the FIRST to try this!? Can it be done, or am I wasting my time?

I doubt it would work since FSX has a new .mdl structure that uses a seperate mdl for interior and exterior.

The .mdl file structure is totally different. It is NOT backwards compatible.

Ok, folks - thanks - I will stop wasting time wishing. Hey Bill, what sort of sliders/performance do you get? I have a similar rig except for the vid card, and am curious about the differences. FSX barely functions for me. (10-14 fps with all low, except autogen at 'sparse'. However, I rarely go near cities - fly mainly in the bush.
