For the default FSX Bell 206B Jet Ranger III helicopter. Your choice of 32 bit 2048 pixels (16mb for best clarity), 32 bit 1024 pixels (4mb for clarity with better frame rates), or DXT5 with no mips (1mb for best frame rates, but still retaining pretty good clarity). Install one or the others, or all three at once if you wish. Easy installation. Repaint by Tom Tiedman.

Installation:

  1. Choose your texture size from the 3 enclosed texture folders. Copy and paste (or drag and drop) the texture folder you've chosen (or all 3 if you wish) into your default Bell 206B folder.
  2. Choose the corresponding enclosed [fltsim.X] entry found below (or all 3 entries if you wish) and copy and paste it (or them) into your default Bell 206B's "aircraft.cfg" file in the proper logically sequential numerical order, remembering to change the "X" in all of the [fltsim.X] entries you've chosen to the next number (or numbers) in line among your Bell 206B repaints. Then click 'file', then click 'save', of course.
  3. Go hover somewhere.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D aircraft
  1. Extract the downloaded archive

    Use 7-Zip (free) or WinRAR to extract the ZIP to a temporary folder. Don't install while still zipped — the simulator can't read inside ZIP files.
  2. Copy aircraft files into SimObjects

    Place the aircraft folder inside FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\. The folder must contain an aircraft.cfg file. Effects go into FSX\Effects\; gauges go into FSX\Gauges\.
  3. Verify in FSX

    Launch FSX, go to Free Flight → Select Aircraft and find your new aircraft under its manufacturer.
  4. Always read the included readme

    Every mod ships with a readme.txt or README file. It tells you exactly where files go, what dependencies are needed, and any quirks specific to this add-on.
