Title: Winglets
Post by davidrredmt on Oct 18th, 2008 at 12:27am
Okay so I tried to add winglets to my Delta 757-200 in FSX using the Ace program. I have yes selected and have it saved. When I go to FSX i see no winglets on my plane. I have tried it with a few other planes and same result. Someone said that you can add it to the .cfg file of the aircraft. where exactly in the cfg would I add that and what should I be adding. can someone do a screen shot? or does anyone know how to fix the problem??

you can either access ace from within fsx  Add-ons -> CaptainSim -> 757 Ace and change there, followed by reloading the model(make sure you remove read-only option in CS_B757-200 folder's properties to make this work)  

OR

manually change aircraft.cfg file within folder

C:/program files/Microsoft Games/Microsoft Flight Simulator X/ SimObjects/ Airplanes/ CS_B757-200/

for example you want to show winglets in first plane listed in that file change the red entry model=PW to model=PWW

after changing it should look like this :

sim=cs757-200
model=PWW
panel=
sound=PW
texture=delta

ui_type=757-200 PW
ui_variation=Delta

incase the model you wanna use has Rolls Royce engines it should similarly be changed from model=RR to model=RRW

I know that was an easy fix but for some reason I just could never figure it out. still kinda new to the whole editing the actual cfg files. But it worked and thank you very much

Title: Blended Winglets
Post by Kimberly on Oct 12th, 2008 at 10:58am
Hello

Is there anyway of removing the blended winglets from the B752 aircraft? It's just the airlines I am flying don't have them, nor have any plans on having them added (Monarch Airlines mainly).

I have searched for posts or tech help, but no sign of it.

So is there a way of removing the winglets?

Kimberly.

use ace to remove from all aircrafts or manually remove them from aircraft.cfg file
