FS2004 Lockheed L1049 Constellation

Repaints for Manfred Jahn's Lockheed L1049 Super Constellation variants. Textures for classic airlines that operated the Connie: Flying Tiger Line, Seaboard and Western, Slick Airways, Resort Airlines, Transocean Air Lines, South Pacific Airlines, California Eastern Airways. By Dave McQueen.

Installation:

• First, make sure that the base model ( l1049g.zip ) is installed on your system.
• Find the Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\Aircraft\Lockheed_L1049G folder.
• Unzip the 8 texture folders contained in this file and copy all or some of them to the "Lockheed_L1049G" folder.
• Using a text editor such as Wordpad open the connieschemes.txt file from this zip file and copy the sections for all or some of the paint schemes into the Lockheed_L1049G folder's aircraft.cfg. IE copy and paste sections that look like the following:

[fltsim.4]
title=L1049H Cal Eastern
sim=L1049G
model=1049vc_st
panel=
sound=
texture=cal
kb_checklists=L1049_check
kb_reference=L1049G_ref
atc_heavy=0
atc_id=N6931C
atc_id_enable=1
atc_flight_number=31C
atc_airline=California Eastern
atc_parking_codes=TWA
atc_parking_types=GATE
prop_anim_ratio=0.99
ui_manufacturer=Lockheed
ui_type=L-1049G Super Constellation
ui_variation="Cal Eastern"
atc_id_color=0x00000000
atc_id_font=Verdana,-11,1,600,0
description="Super H Constellation N6931C textures by Dave McQueen."

• Using the text editor paste them into the Lockheed_L1049G aircraft.cfg file under those sections already present. The first line of each new section has to be changed to be 1 number higher than the one that precedes it in the aircraft.cfg file. For example in the Cal Eastern section above if it was placed after the section that read [fltsim.7] in the first line, then the section above would need to be changed from [fltsim.4] to [fltsim.8]. The next one to [fltsim.9] and so forth.

You may include all 8 paint schemes or just the ones you want. You just have to make certain to adjust the aircraft.cfg as described above.
