Installation:

  • Unzip wr4_fs9.zip to a temporary destination of your choice.
  • Using Windows Explorer, find the folder ....\Flight Simulator 9\Aircraft\Douglas_DC3\
  • Make a copy of the folder within named "texture".
  • Rename it "texture.wr2004".
  • Move the two files in the correspondingly named texture folder within this download into ....\Flight Simulator 9\Aircraft\Douglas_DC3\texture.wr2004\ and overwrite.
  • Back up the AIRCRAFT.CFG file in the 'Douglas_DC3' folder. Then in the original, under the last [flightsim.xx] entry but above the [General] section, copy and paste the following:

[fltsim.xx]
title=Douglas DC3 World Rally 2004
sim=Douglas_DC3
model=
panel=
sound=
texture=wr2004
kb_checklists=Douglas_DC3_check
kb_reference=Douglas_DC3_ref
atc_id_enable=1
atc_id=
atc_parking_types=RAMP,GATE
atc_id_color=
atc_heavy=0
atc_airline=
atc_flight_number=
ui_manufacturer="Douglas"
ui_type="DC-3"
ui_variation="DC-3 World Rally 2004"
description=Official repaint of the default FS9 DC-3 for the DC-3 World Rally 2004, by Mark Beaumont.

  • Before saving the file, change the [flightsim.xx] number so that it is next in sequence. Also, add a registration number to the line "atc_id= if you want to be recognized by ATC. You can configure your tail number at any time within the sim, as you will be aware.
  • Save the file. Your new aircraft should now appear in the FS9 aircraft selection menu.

NOTE: This texture set will, of course, work with any variation you might have configured of the default DC-3. Hence if you have, for example, configured a Beaumont and Bitzer DC-3 folder with our airfile and panel modifications, simply add this texture set to that folder instead, in the manner described above.
