D/L of A/C freeware dose not appear.

I have followed the instructions as to applying the folder & other items to FSX-Steam, but the AC does not appear in the selections.
Would the security program I have corrupt the D/L? WEBROOT SECURE.
TY.

Be sure to put a checkmark in the FSX menu box "show all vaiations.
It's where you pick out the spinning aircraft.

Is it made for Steam.
Does it show up in the airplane folder of FSX.
Can you give me a link or zip file name to see what it is.

Yes, there is a remote chance that the AV can interfere with a download.
You should try installing it again and see if it takes this time.

Thanks RadarMan, 5K+ of real time. But I need to cure my problem with D/L Freebees.

That's a lot of flying hours!

If you can't fix it, let us know what you downloaded, Steam is different that the original disks I use.

Try loading it again, it may have gone into the wrong folder the first time.

HI RM: Will give it a GO.

Did not work.
Unzip the file (maintaining the proper folder structure) to your FSX Simobjects/Airplanes subfolder.
Move the fx_navorange_t45.fx from the Boeing_T45C/Effects folder to your main FSX Effects folder
did this.
Moved the t45CV280 to the fsx airplane folder.
Moved the boeing T45CEffects to fsx effects folder.
I must be doing something wrong?

Your first line, are you putting the folder (not the entire zip) into the FSX Simobjects/Airplanes folder, that's the right way.
If the aircraft doesn't show up it doesn't matter, but the effects should be taken out of the downloaded folder and put into the main effects folder, the contents of not the entire folder.

Interesting, take out the effects folder before inserting the main folder into sfx a/c folder. (unzipped)

Payware is easier to load and they are usually loaded with detail.

My favorite designer.
