How do you get more stars by your name and get above the rating of 'valued member'?

Another quick question. I have downloaded MassiveCrash by Nick Needham, and he says I have to add an extra line to the aircraft.cfg. How do I do this?

That crash program doesnt work for FSX, only FS9 and under

They took out the aircraft breakage and the sim staying in motion after detecting a crash situation in FSX so the crash programs dont work anymore.

I also found out that if AI traffic comes from older sources FSX won't detect any contact with them, only default aircraft or aircraft which have been designed for FSX will detect touching each other.

either way the sim either does not detect a crash on old planes or if it does it halts on contact so no more flashy crashy

I have tried it in FS9 and it certainly makes that dodgy landing a bit more spectacular! Only trouble is, helicopter rotor blades do not do much if they hit the ground.

Thats easy to fix

I edited all my choppers so there were 8 contact points on the radius of the blade rotation. You do not have to have the contact points follow the blades, just set up a circle in their path so when they may make a contact you get a result, sparks, tree leaves, crash if its bad enough. You also have to input the pressure or force in the contact line that will invoke the response.

I have not done that with FSX. no reason to really.

How do you do all that? (Easy to follow steps with words of no more than 3 syllables would be appreciated Grin
