What am I doing wrong here? Could someone take a look at this and see if you can tell me why these are not showing up? I do know all the textures are for the asme plane, and I know they're in the right order. This thing is really kicking my a$$ ???

Does the ui_manufacturer=All Private Props show in your menu? If not, try using an actual manufacturer's name.

Further to Lou's suggestion it might be an idea to add the ui_type. This will be the same for all variations. For example:

[fltsim.0]
title=F1 P-51D Mustang
sim=RD_P-51D_Mustang
visual_damage=1
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=
kb_checklists=RD_P-51D_CHECK
kb_reference=
editable=0
atc_id=NP51D
atc_airline=
atc_flight_number=1944
atc_heavy=0

ui_manufacturer=North American Aviation
ui_type=P-51D Mustang

ui_variation=Miss Kimberly
description=GMAX P-51 'Reno' Mustang. Original design by Roger L. Dial. Flight Dynamics © Steve Small FSD. Sounds © Mike Hambly 6/2002 ...

[fltsim.1]
title=F1 P-51D Mustang 1
sim=RD_P-51D_Mustang
visual_damage=1
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=1
kb_checklists=RD_P-51D_CHECK
kb_reference=
editable=0
atc_id=NP51D
atc_airline=
atc_flight_number=1944
atc_heavy=0

ui_manufacturer=North American Aviation
ui_type=P-51D Mustang

ui_variation=Cloud Dancer

In you rmodel folder - what is the *.mdl file name?

Note that you have RD_P51D_GMAX.air, but your config file is calling for RD_P51D_Mustang.

your aircraft.cfg sim= name must match the *.mdl which should match the *.air file names....

Hope that helps

Thanks guys, I've got it sorted out kind of. The first five show up (textures 0-4), but not the last 5 for some reason. I updated the original posting to what I have now. So why should only half of them show up?

Note that for [flightsim.5] through [flightsim.9] your title= entries duplicates those for [flightsim.0] through [flightsim.4]

you should change them to

title=F1 P-51D Mustang 5
title=F1 P-51D Mustang 6
title=F1 P-51D Mustang 7
title=F1 P-51D Mustang 8
title=F1 P-51D Mustang 9

and see if that makes the rest show up...

Felix, thanks a BUNCH! I guess I couldn't see the forest for the trees! Roll Eyes

You just helped me solve something that has plagued me since I first started in FS. All planes are working fine now!

Can I buy you a beer?

Using Abacus' FS Repaint, when you select a model/variant to repaint, it will prompt you to identify both a new title and variant in a dialog box, before creating the new texture folder and the aircraft.cfg entry. (OF course I'm biased since I was part of the beta test group.) Of course, you can then repaint your variant.

I believe there is a freeware utility that "preps" the model, etc for a repaint in a similar way.
