MORE ON "MISSING' FS98 AIRCRAFT!

A:

I'm a somewhat experienced Flight Simmer and I always have an answer for almost everything, but I just recently downloaded a airplane and it didn't show up! First time for me and I've got over 90 so far. Lots of looking and checking with JAB98, which couldn't find it either, no luck. Finally I went through each file on each folder to determine what was missing. I found that I had ommitted the aircraft.cfg file in the root folder. I added that and the plane showed up. However, it only had texture on the aft half. More checking and I found that I had scrolled down the .zip file contents to read the installation "readme" file and then when I unzipped the file I highlighted all of the visible files from the top to the bottom of the window. This skipped 8 files at the top of the .zip list and created all of my problem. The point is that it is usually something stupid and easily corrected that causes these problems.
