That's a good one for help. But I can't seem to open my cfg file. Everytime I click on it it takes me to windows photo gallery where it says file cannot be opened. |

Hi Harry, once you have entered the new repaint info just say yes when it asks you to save the changes. |

Ahh for some reason I am unable to get this right. When I try to save it says it was denied. And when I try to to open up the cfg file on my flyable md83 on notepad. The only thing it says on the pad is models=md83. Then nothing. |

Are you sure you're opening the correct file?
The name is aircraft.cfg
Right-click on it and select Open with... Notepad.
Once you've opened it, this is what you'll see:
[fltsim.0]
title=McDonnell-Douglas/Boeing MD-83
sim=MD_83
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=
kb_checklists=MD_83_check
kb_reference=MD_83_ref
atc_id=N700MS
atc_id_color=0xffffffff
atc_airline=Soar
atc_flight_number=1123
ui_manufacturer="McDonnell-Douglas/Boeing"
ui_type="MD-83"
ui_variation="Soar Airlines"
ui_typerole="Commercial Airliner"
ui_createdby="Microsoft Corporation"
[fltsim.1]
title=McDonnell-Douglas/Boeing MD-83 Paint1
sim=MD_83
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=1
kb_checklists=MD_83_check
etc...
Once you've made your changes do what Welshflyer said above. |
