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.
Open with Notepad.
Ok if I open with notepad do I save it as a seperate doc. File? Thank you for all the help!
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

Once you've made your changes do what Welshflyer said above.
