Changing 737-800 textures

[dcmair]

I have changed he textures of the 737-800's to AA, Co, United, Delta. I di d this in the Aircraft. cfg file. I did not delete the Flightsim 1, flightsim 2, etc. I only changed the wording so that they, the new textures would become as they are instead of Soar, Pacifica, etc. They now show up in the select aircraft screen, but the only one that shows up as an AI is the AA, the first one I changed. Now I do not have Co, United, Delta as the AI aircraft which the Soar, Pacifica, World Airlines were. What did I do wrong. ?

You cannot change the title= line in any way, otherwise, FS cannot find the aircraft to display.

This is what in my title bars. ONly American shows up as AI in FS10. Not United, CO, Frontier.

They all show up in FS9

I note you have two different sim= lines - do you have both .air files which are named the same way? I don't believe the aircraft will show unless you have a matching .air file.

Boeing737-800.air

AND

Boeing737-400.air

Is the 737-400 the default FS2004 aircraft by chance? It may or may not work in FSX if that is what you are attempting to do.

And as was pointed out in another post, you cannot change the title= line as that is what the traffic file is looking for in order to display the aircraft as an AI plane. If you do change the title= line, then you would have to decompile the traffic file and change the reference to the aircraft in the aircraft.txt file and recompile it.
