TCE will probably be look for you FS9 installation. And a big problem with CE will be the location of the aircraft in FSX.
FS9\Aircraft versus
FSX\Simobjects\Airplanes. You
can install the F-104 in the folder
FSX\AIRCRAFT if you like but you must edit the FSX.CFG (C:\User\
username\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\fsx.cfg)
BACK IT UP BEFORE YOU MODIFY IT!!!ADD this line: SimObjectPaths.6=Aircraft, like this:
[Main]
HideMenuFullscreen=1
HideMenuNormal=0
Location=440,130,1480,908,\\.\DISPLAY1
Maximized=2
SimObjectPaths.0=SimObjects\Airplanes
SimObjectPaths.1=SimObjects\Rotorcraft
SimObjectPaths.2=SimObjects\GroundVehicles
SimObjectPaths.3=SimObjects\Boats
SimObjectPaths.4=SimObjects\Animals
SimObjectPaths.5=SimObjects\Misc
SimObjectPaths.6=Aircraft
User Objects=Airplane, Helicopter
ProcSpeed=6735
PerfBucket=7The good thing about adding that line, is that if you install an FS9 aircraft into FSX, you don't have to move it from the newly created
FSX\Aircraft folder to the
FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes folder. I made this change in fsx.cfg back in the early days of FSX because most of my add-on aircraft were for FS9 and it was a real PITA to move them all to the default Airplanes folder every time I installed another one!
If the TCE has a similar Tools TAB to the ACE Tools TAB (see pic) and you set it to point to FSX rather than FS9, I'm pretty sure that the TCE will allow you to make changes. Make sure you run the TCE as an administrator!
I can't say for 100% sure that it will work. I have not installed or flown on FS9 for more than two years. I think about installing it every now and then, but it's too much hassle and FSX is just sooooo much better than FS9.
IMO.
I hope this helps.
