I have d/l a few new planes and installed them as per the instructions and they don't show up as available. When trying to use them in a mission I get errors.

These aircraft are the Pby (Black Cat), B-25 (Ruptured Duck,) Actual B-17, And PBJ(B-25).

This is really ticking me off!!

Can someone help me out?

Heya Maaco...

Do they work in Free Flight for you? I haven't yet tried putting them in a mission- but I know they show up in Free Flight. They aren't, however, available for Quick Combat though-- I have tried to use them...so maybe some of the user mades don't have the necessary files to do it...I will try and see what happens...

OK...I have three out of the four (where did you get a 17? And more importantly, how does it look?)...

Anyways-- the three seem to work fine in missions I have created...so maybe it's in the way you have them in the files? If you'd like, I can send my plane files over...or- I can list what I see in my aircraft folder for each (wow- there's a lot there!)...although I have VB_Catalina, but no Black Cat or PBJ B-25 (?)...

Ruptured Duck--
Model Folder (w/ 2 files in it)
Panel Folder (w/ nothing in it)
Sound Folder (33 sounds)
Texture folder (19)
ABD-B25B.air
abd-b25b.CDP
abd-b25b.dp
Aircraft.cfg

Do you have all of these in your Ruptured Duck (a k a--Abd-B-25B)folder?

I was able to get the Ruptured Duck loaded and added the Pre-War Devestator.


I am having trouble as well with the others that you mentioned.

They show up in the aircraft folder but are not available to fly in any section of the game.

Hmmm?

Jeeves,
I got most of them from this site. http://www.flightsim.com/cgi/kds?$=main/forum.htm

It's a pretty cool site with lots of planes.
If I could only get some of them to work in the game.

Do a search in "search file libraries" for CFS2. And btw, you have to log in, so sign up and down load.

If you get them to work please let me know.

Thanks,

~Maaco~

Sorry Maaco...I haven't had time to go and look for those other planes. I think your best bet for help would be the CFS 2 message board at Simhq...or www.cfs2.dogfighter.com ...there are a lot of mission makers in those forums and I just don't have enough experience with it to know how to help-- I am spending too much time making campaigns and new training missions for this 2 year old game

Me again...

The discussion on this link may be useful to you....I don't know if it can apply to all planes, but it is wortha shot.
