Yoo guys,
Trying to install already for like 5 hours textures like Britisch Airways , Ryanair, KLM , Air france.
Its about the boeing 747-400 and 737-800 who are already installed in the game , only wana have new textures.
If i put complete new planes inside of the map below , there is nothing going wrong, but if i like to add texture ... mannnn
Copy the texture folders to the right map C:\Program Files (x86\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\B737_800
Open the aircraft note , put the codes inside , change the numbers on top aswell as the titel , checking if the map is ok , changing variation if nessesary , but still no texture seeable in the game itself.
Can someone please help me out, cause im getting frustated somehow (after loads of hours).
If this doesn't work for you I would change the number in the first line.
If it should be in sequence (2 following 1) I would skip a number.
https://forum.flyawaysimulation.com/forum/topic/33358/how-to-install-aircraft-in-fsx/
Did not help for me ,
I changed the numbers and skip 1 number in sequence.
Did not help , the topic you posted is what i did already trying to solve the problem.
This is what i did in the aircraft text

That looks as if it supposed to.
See if this helps.
I dont know man , i've seen this folder aswell and double checked everything.
Seems it will not work at all for me , prob there must be something , and im normaly smart enough to see it.
Now not at all prob cause its not working.
The text in the aircraft file is good. no problems there.
Soo there must be something wrong somewere else, but if i add new aircrafts instead of textures its going good.
But textures no way he will add them.
Try going into the game and go to the part of the menu where you choose the aircraft (all the thumbnails).
Put a checkmark in the box that say's "show all variations".
That should do the trick.
Dont work, was the first thing i checked must be something else
I have the steam edition mayby have to something within steam itself?
1 strange thing happend, i deleted to see what happend all the textures who already existed in the aircraft file.
But the planes are still there?
Whats going on?
I have the original FSX and then The Acceleration Pack.
Steam may be different in some aspects, check on their forum.
Good luck...strange happenings.
And if i delete the basis textures (the ones that comes with the game) and replace them with other ones (repaints) they will appear in the game :O
Yessss know how it works now , with the steam edition you have to be in an another map , read carefully this for all the new guys :
You have to be here !!!
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\DLC\379233\SimObjects\Airplanes
This is only for textures!!!!!!!
If u wana add new aircrafts you need to be here !
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes (so just normal)
Hope i will help alot of guys !😀
Thanks for posting the fix, it will help others.
Glad you can enjoy it now.
