I guess (hope) this is not your FG git compilation directory.
The aircraft directory name should be "c172p" (with no quotes). Not more
Which message?
~/flightgear/fgdata-git/Aircraft
Almost anywhere at your choice, provided that you give the path to the launcher or in a command line.
It can be
- Code: Select all
/home/username/FG/Added-Aircraft

bboett wrote in Wed Aug 31, 2022 7:52 pm:ok, first of all the ~/flightgear is the dir for additional plane stuff setting,
i have now a c172p.org and the c172p cloned from the github, and they look the same with ls, so i suppose all files are in it?
ok, reading the message showed that it was still taking the plane inso i replaced the directory there with the git version, and that worked....
- Code: Select all
~/flightgear/fgdata-git/Aircraft
but i get the same error message as before....
ok but that didn't seem to work, since there were several instances of possible c172p..... anyway, its working now (even if solved with an axe....) but in such a case, how do you solve which same named plane is taken?

MariuszXC wrote in Thu Sep 01, 2022 9:38 pm:However, if you have, say, multiple c172p's and do
./run_fgfs.sh --aircraft=c172p
then only one of them will be used and which one depends on directory search order. I could be mistaken here though.

/home/myuser/fg/next/run_fgfs.sh --launcher --config=/home/myuser/myflightgear/fg-common.rc --config=/home/myuser/myflightgear/fg-150km-horizon.rc --config=/home/myuser/myflightgear/fg-monitor-1080.rc
$HOME/myflightgear/runfgnext 150
