Hi,
First to cover the basics; I have an iMac, 2.8ghz, 16GB RAM, ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB, running OSX 10.9.4.
I have been trying to install some additional aircraft into FG 3.0, but have not been able to get the install process to work. When I try to add other aircraft, the process to Install Add-on Data (Launcher, Advanced Features, Other, Install Add-on Data) says it completed successfully and that data were copied to multiple folders. However, in looking through the folders, it would appear the data are only sometimes copied to only one folder, the Al\Aircraft folder, and then only the Model data are copied there. Nothing else appears to be copied anywhere else. I say sometimes because even though the process says it completes successfully, it does not copy any data for some of the aircraft I wish to load (I should note I only downloaded aircraft from the FG 3.0 aircraft download site).
Looking in Contents\Resources\Data, there are three folders, and one file, that contain aircraft information. The first set is in, Al\Aircraft; in this folder there are 88 folders of different aircraft. The second is, Aircraft, which has 20 folders, 19 for Aircraft and one, UIUC, which contains 11 Aircraft folders. Then there is the folder, Aircraft-uiuc, which contains folders for 21 Aircraft. Finally, there is the file, AircraftCache.rb, which contains information on 32 Aircraft, some being different configurations of the same aircraft.
Why am I not able to load additional aircraft into FG 3.0? Is this a bug with FG 3.0?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
W
