January 6, 20224 yr Hi There, The other day, I added some repaints, to the Default DC3 Dakota in FS2004. However from Repaints fltsim.33 onwards, which go up to fltsim.46, only 3 of them show. I have looked for posts about this issue, which have said turn off UAC in Windows 7 64 bit which I use, I i did. And change the permissions on the FS9 Main Folder, which I have done. Those things havn't worked, the textures show properly in AI Aircraft Editor. I made sure that the ui_manufacturer=Douglas Line and ui_type="DC-3" said that for all entries, some initially were slightly different i.e. "Douglas" and DC-3 for the former and latter, and I changed them to all read the same, but to no avail. Here posted below are the entries from 33 to 46 in the aircraft.cfg File, only the two Russian Repaints and the Ken Borek Air Repaint show up. None of the repaints with the line :- ui_manufacturer=Douglas-Ford-Project show up, I have some of those installed allready, but the new ones don't show up either.

January 6, 20224 yr I'm unaware of any limitations, nor can I see any obvious errors, but "32" seems like a good number for a maximum amount, so I'd set up a second DC-3 folder called something slightly different, move the problematic entries + panel(s) & model(s) etc. to the new folder, change the ui_type to something slightly different … maybe DC3 (without the hyphen) and see if that works. Don't forget to re-number the [fltsim.x] entries in the aircraft.cfg file. Depending on what does or doesn't work, it may be necessary to create a "test" entry, with a completely different set of names, and work through the problematic entries one at a time :( Having (hopefully) resolved the issue, if you do end up with multiple folders, remember you can alias entries like "panel" and "model" back to the original folder. According to the SDK, "This saves disk space and makes file organization more efficient" ;) Edited January 6, 20224 yr by chris_eve
January 6, 20224 yr No problem with a maximum number of entries - mine has 125! It would be interesting to see the last entry that does work, for comparison. The most common cause of this issue is incorrect [fltsim.xxx] numbering. Also, sim=xxxx must match the name of the *.air file. But I expect these have already been checked? At the moment I can't think of any other suggestions, although FSX is a bit more complicated. ACA is a good tool for checking for errors - the Light version is probably adequate:Downloads | AI Flight Support (pvdveen.net) John My co-pilot's name is Sid and he's a star! http://www.adventure-unlimited.org
January 6, 20224 yr Author Hi John Hinson, I have tried a number of things, including making the Repaints Titles simpler, but that didn't even work. Many thanks for your useful information. Yes I have done the checks you mention, and everything seems to match for the repaints. Regards Eddie Winch Edited January 6, 20224 yr by eddywinch82
January 7, 20224 yr [fltsim.36] title=Douglas DC-3 IBERIA sim=Douglas_DC3 model= panel= sound= perhaps the empty lines here cause the problem?
January 7, 20224 yr I don't think the numerical numbers make a difference, the aircraft are eventually listed in alphabetical order of the "ui_variation" The entry you'd possibly need to examine carefully could be the one alphabetically after the last displayed. The empty entries, "model=" etc. shouldn't be an issue if there's a default model, panel etc. in the configuration.
January 7, 20224 yr Author I am stumped with this guys, the only thing that seems to work, is if I replace the Ken Borek main texture or the other two repaints that show, with the main texture, from the other repaints, it shows the new texture, i.e. Iberia works, by doing that. Eddie
January 7, 20224 yr I think you're going to need to go back to basics with a new aircraft.cfg and simply add one aircraft at a time until something goes wrong! Then either put that entry to one side and continue adding the rest, repeating as necessary, or settle down with the one specific known faulty entry and figure out where the problem lies. You may well have more than one entry causing a problem. Simply deleting or modifying a single entry may well never result in a total solution!
January 7, 20224 yr Author Hi Chris, I have come up with a solution that works. I made a copy of the Ken Borek Repaint Texture Folder. Then I made as many copies as I needed, and then named the other Folders KBAir2 KBAir3 KBAir4 etc up to the needed amount, then copied in the main Repaint textures from the Folders Iberia DHL etc. After changing the main texture from .bmp to .bmx, then changed the title to whatever said for the Ken Borek one, but adding 2 then 3 then 4 etc after the writing, and doing the same adding the relevant number to the other information. I saved the aircraft.cfg and ran FS2004, and it worked. It is not what I wanted to do, but it has worked nonetheless. I still don't understand why the other text for names, etc didn't work ?

Any help would be much appreciated. Eddie Winch
January 14, 20224 yr Author Hi there, The solution I found was, to keep most fields the same in the aircraft.cfg File in the Default DC3 Dakota Folder in FS2004. For example, I used the following entry, and based the other repaints entries around it :- [fltsim.53]title=Douglas DC-3 Ken Borek Air 21sim=Douglas_DC3model=panel=sound=texture=KBAir21kb_checklists=Douglas_DC3_checkkb_reference=Douglas_DC3_refatc_id_color=ui_manufacturer=Douglasui_type="DC-3"ui_variation="British Westpoint G-AMDB later" description="British Westpoint G-AMDB later livery. Repaint by John Payne."atc_heavy=0atc_airline=atc_flight_number=DB And then for the others, change the fltsim.x entry and the title number, and the texture entry to KBAir25 for example, so KBAir with another number. And then change only the ui_variation entry and atc_id entry, if there was one. But keep all other entries the same, like using the standard Douglas DC-3 description i.e. :- [fltsim.57]title=Douglas DC-3 Ken Borek Air 25sim=Douglas_DC3model=panel=sound=texture=KBAir25kb_checklists=Douglas_DC3_checkkb_reference=Douglas_DC3_refatc_id_color= atc_id=G-SWISS ui_manufacturer=Douglasui_type="DC-3"ui_variation="Swiss Airlines" description="The Douglas DC-3 revolutionized air transportation and airline service during the 1930s and 1940s.
