subzero1970 Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 ok so my fsx is working and i want to add more planes, today i downloaded the red arrows hawk (at least i think i did!) however upon opening the zip file there is only a texture folder, 2 images and a readme which completely confuses me (even though ive read the tutorial on this site!) its probably super straight forward but im a bit dumb!!! the readme says its requires the hawk from skysim.co.uk - but that doesnt exist anymore... so am i just dumb? i bet i am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 I'm downloading the T1 Hawk from UKMIL at this site: http://www.fs-freeware.net/spaceorbiter/summary/55-military-aircraft/342-microsoft-flight-simulator-x-ukmil-hawk-t1-package I'll try the repaint from our Library. What you downloaded was only a repaint without the full aircraft. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Works fine! Be sure your Red Arrow 2014 repaint is for the UKMIL Hawk T1A Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
subzero1970 Posted June 28, 2016 Author Share Posted June 28, 2016 the plane is there, but the red arrows repaint isnt, and the 3d cockpit is just all black? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 the plane is there, but the red arrows repaint isnt, and the 3d cockpit is just all black? 1. Did you add the repaint 2014ra.zip from our File Library for the Red Arrows paint? 2. Did you add all of the gauges from the Gauges folder to either your Main FSX/gauges folder or to the aircraft panel folder? 3. I'll check to see if I can add the HUD display to the VC.

ScatterbrainKid Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 ..today i downloaded the red arrows hawk (at least i think i did!) however upon opening the zip file there is only a texture folder, 2 images and a readme.. Always use 'Advanced Search' to get the screen below. For example if you want a complete fully-flyable FSX Spitfire and not just textures, make sure the 3 red circled boxes look like this, and just type in the word Spitfire- http://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g64/PoorOldSpike/sub2/FSX-files2_zpsqt3fvlvf.jpg~original Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinger2k2 Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Basically what we are saying here is that if you download a repaint and receive just texture files, then you need to have the full original aircraft installed first as it is this that will have the full set of files including the cockpit etc. Hope I am not teaching you how to suck eggs here. Normally if it's a repaint the readme file should tell you what the original aircraft is that you need to install first. Good luck Stinger Sent from my SM-A300FU using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrzippy Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 http://simviation.com/fsxmilitary15.htm 9th one on the page. Trying this full package. Pretty much the same. VC has a blacked out HUD, throttle handle and Stick! I gave it my best shot! Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
