Installation:

  • I'm assuming that most of us have done this before and know you have to have the original AlphaSim F-80 installed in order for this to work.
  • First, I have no idea where FSX is located on your system. I have FSX Steam which is:
    Program Files(x86)/Steam/steamapps/common/FSX
  • Inside the main FSX folder is the SimObjects folder, the the Airplanes folder and the F-80 folder should reside in there.
  • Place the texture.xxxxxxx into the main F-80 folder.
  • Note: All texture files needed are supplied in .dds DXT-5 format. No need to use any of the original bmp DXT 3 or 888 32 bit textures.
  • Copy and paste the following section to the aircraft.cfg file, replacing the xx in [fltsim.xx] with the next number in sequence with other repaints already there (i.e [fltsim.0, fltsim.1, etc.)
