dufus Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Hi all, this is just a little thing that I find time consuming. Why are the newest AI files included in the new FSX File Library menu when these files are also in the separate AI menu? These AI files sometimes are quite large in number and take up a lot of space and time to scroll through. I do not wish to upset those who cherish these files but I would prefer the files to stay in the separate AI section. Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTweak Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Use the Advanced Search feature, and tell it NOT include the word AI or something like that. Also, don't tick the checkbox for AI planes. That will make doubly certain.

Founder Nels_Anderson Posted September 5, 2016 Founder Share Posted September 5, 2016 The new files lists that are available are nothing more than file library searches. We've pre-made the most common searches for you and put them in a menu just to make it more convenient. If these searches do not fit your needs then create your own search using the basic or advanced search. You have lots of options as to how you find things in the file library, especially if you use advanced search. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
il88pp Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 To download aircraft from flightsim.com: Look in the file library (link at top of this page). Select Advanced seac. Use advanced search to look for a plane you like. When using advanced search, select |x| -FSX aircraft only.- And select: |x| -Complete aircraft with model, panel, sound- That way you find complete aircraft and not just textures.

napamule2 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 If you have a specific airline paint of a particular model airplane just Google it and IT will find the file for you in any site. But of course choose wisely as not all sites are as reliable (and may include trojans, etc). Google lists a lot of the files found here at FltSimCom, Simviation, etc. The secret is to use a specific modeler name, model name, or specific paint. And if you have time you can browse FS9 only, or FSX only, files page by page. The usual is to list latest uploads and then progress back in time by latest Flt Sim version on back to FS98 and beyond. Searching, and finding what you are looking for, is an art, and an EXACT science (with perhaps a grain of good luck, for good measure). Having the option of stipulating what NOT to search for is extremely handy and very practical - use it!
