Installation:

  • Download and install VirtaviaF-4Pack2upX.zip.
  • If you want to keep Texture.6 from pack 2, than please rename my texture folder and edit the aircraft.cfg.
  • You can also overwrite Texture.6 with my files.
  • That's it!

Attention: There might be VC compatibility problems from the former Alphasim 2004 version with the FSX updates. The VC might have some holes in the upper parts or the VC-graphic will not been displayed. Therefore, I recommend the panel-fix from Don Bodenstedt. With his panel I could solve all my VC-problems with that Phantom-version.

How to install this mod

FSX / P3D Repaint
  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. Add livery to base aircraft folder

    Place the texture folder (typically texture.{airline}) inside FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\{base-aircraft}\.
  3. Update aircraft.cfg

    Open the base aircraft.cfg in Notepad. Add a new [fltsim.X] section per the readme.
  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.
