  1. It isn't really all that hard, but, it isn't just a couple of edits either. 1) Verify that the model folder contains an FSX native model. TDSX738MAX_LEAPX1B--P2WM.mdl. If not, find it in the download. 2) Copy the model folder to desktop and rename it model.vc 3) Copy the B737_800_interior.mdl from the default 738 into model.vc 4) Edit the model.vc/model.cfg, adding the line: interior=B737_800_interior 5) Copy the TDS panel folder to desktop and rename it panel.vc 6) Open B737/panel/panel.cfg and the TDS original panel.cfg. 7) Copy the Default B737/panel/panel.cfg [VCockpit01] section. 8) In the TDS panel.vc/panel.cfg scroll to the [VCockpit01] section and paste(#7) before that. 9) You now have 2 [VCockpit01] and a [VCockpit02] sections. Scroll down and renumber them [VCockpit02] & [VCockpit03] 10) You will need textures for the VC. Copy the default 738's texture folder(no period or other extension) into the 737 MAX folder. 11) Inside of that default texture folder is texture.cfg. Copy it to the existing Texture.BOE folder. 12) The eyepoint will be wrong. In the 737 MAX aircraft.cfg replace the [Views] -> eyepoint = with eyepoint = -19.00, -1.55, 1.9 13) Still in the aircraft.cfg, change to model=vc and panel=vc You should now have the original TDS 2D panels and popups with the default 738 VC. Hey Guys...Punishment enough??!! ;) ...Don
  2. My New Hawaii! A great transformation using: The MegaSceneryEarth 2.0 - Hawaii Special $5 Edition from PC Aviator. Raimondo Taburet's Hawaii 10m Mesh, hawai10_2.zip, in the library here. George Keogh's Hawaiian Airports 1, 2, & 3, in Avsim's Library. Search for "Hawaiian Airports Part 1" and all 3 will show up. This is representative of the quality of the add-ons: Patron 2 / VP-9 P-3C on approach to Kaneohe Bay.

  3. VMF-251 took delivery of this Fury from VMF-235 in 1956. The "235" markings have been scrubbed off, but, the stains are still visible...Don Took a lesson from Jan! :p Section F8 freebie F-86
  4. Nice FJ-3 Fury Adam! :pilot: Milviz? Killer shots of it too. :) ...Don
  5. Hey Henry! I should have offered a link to your KNLC development thread. I'll bet there are many Naval Aviation aficiaonados here that would love your NAS Lemoore package. SOH discussion and latest DL links: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?89335-NAS-Lemoore-scenery! This, my friend, is one helluva first effort. :cool::cool: Congrats...Don
  6. Hey Henry! Look familiar? :cool::cool: With 100% traffic slider and all of my KNLC traffic files enabled. Thanks again. :) ...Don

  10. Nick Needham's new "UNDER CONSTRUCTION" FSX Bible is available here: http://www.simforums.com/forums/the-fsx-computer-system-the-bible-by-nickn_topic46211.html As noted before: Kosta's Guide; http://kostasfsworld.wordpress.com/fsx-software-and-hardware-guide/ They are both very good sources, but, Kosta's is an easier read, and may get your tweaking done sooner...Don
  11. AIFP, ADE9X, FSPS, SBuilderX, Sketchup, and a few of the 20 or so other utilities I have, keep me active when flying just isn't enough...Don
  12. When I promoted this to "Stickie" status, the intent was to provide members with quick links to various tweaking methods and guides. It has now become more of a general hardware discussion. My fault too. I think "member specific" questions should be seperate threads in the proper forums. To preserve the original intent, Locked, it is...Don
  13. With your older Pentium, the link in post #3 will be a good start. Then try the tweaks from the link in post #1. One change at a time...Don
  14. FS Panel Studio? It is a graphical editor for FS panel.cfg Use it for creating or modifying an existing panel. You can create a "New Window" with a single gauge, or multiples, that can be dragged onto a seperate monitor on one PC. I don't know if there is a way to network panels to a 2nd PC. Some type of simconnect arraingement maybe...Don
  15. I just spent some time reading the most comprehensive Software and Hardware Guide for FSX that I have seen to date. It was compiled by Paul Johnson,(Avsim) a couple of weeks ago(1-22-13), and acknowledges the following Masters of the FSX Black Art: Jesus “Bojote” Altuve, Nick "Nick N" Needham, Ryan “Tabs” Maziarz, Bill "Fr.Bill" Leaming, David "OPA" Marshal(RIP), Holger "Genius" Sandmann, Pete "FSUIPC" Dowson, Mike McCarthy, Michael "FS-GS" Greenblatt, Phil "Aces" Taylor, Srdan "Kosta" Kostic, Steve "DX10" Parsons. I'm sure you will recognise most of those names. Please respect the wishes of the author and DO NOT distribute copies. It is, as noted, a Living Document, subject to future revision...Don http://forum.avsim.net/fsx_guide.pdf
