Aircraft Configuration File

The Aircraft.cfg file specifies the location of aircraft information. The sections of the file and the information specified in each section are as follows:

[Fltsim.0]

Title= the aircraft name displayed in the Aircraft Selection dialog box.

Sim= the .air file.

Model= the location of model information. The default location is the folder "Model."

Panel= the location of panel information. The default location is the folder "Panel."

Sound= the location of sound information. The default location is the folder "Sound."

Texture= the location of texture information. The default location is the folder "Texture."

Checklists= the checklists configuration file.

If you have more than one version of the same aircraft, you can specify information for each version in the same aircraft configuration file. Just designate the first version as [Fltsim.0], the second version as [Fltsim.1], and so on. The example aircraft configuration file in this topic specifies an aircraft that has two versions.

In the first version of the aircraft in the example below ([Fltsim.0]), Model=rg points to a model folder named model.rg, Panel=rg points to a panel folder named panel.rg, Sound refers to the default folder, Sound, and Texture=rg points to a texture folder named texture.rg. In the second version of the aircraft in the example below ([Fltsim.1]), the folders aren't specified and point to the default folders for model, panel, sound, and texture (Model, Panel, Sound, and Texture, respectively).
