FSX Iris F4 Phantom AS-GA Megapack

I know it's an old question but here's the solution, when installing any files, its ALWAYS a cut and paste never copy as files over time have a tendency to vanish or become inert for whatever reason.

Now when it comes to file placement, The file heading main file example F4 Phantom/Effects/Texture inserts at Airplanes If the file READS AS F4Phantom is the heading, But, if the file says Effects/Texture that would be inserted into Microsoft Flight Simulator File because the other subfolders will automatically insert into the correct file.

The main issue in errors is if the creator uses a lower case heading on any file it will automatically be placed as a separate file in the file list as such example. simobjects Airplanes SimObject Airplanes. Notice in the master files the way the casing is and you'll see how so many users write that they can't see the aircraft. It's usually not in the correct file.

The correct would be Microsoft Flight Simulator/ SimObjects/ Airplanes/F4 Phantom and the contents.

I've also found that quite often all of the files can stay with the Aircraft or Helio, it all depends on preference.

If you have an application where you can choose multiple aircraft that fly on its own information and you want Helicopters to fly, they won't show to enable the flight, you'll have to place the helicopters in the Airplanes list so the application can find them.

The best idea for anyone is to learn how to tweak the CFG file in the FSX main, and the CFG in Aircraft, this will allow you to tweak. As far as memory issues, go into FSX cfg then search box %appdata%, scroll to FSX then to FSX CFG, at the top of the file type in exactly as this MEMFIX=1, that will take care of that tweak for memory.

I know it seems like everyone's heading onto MSFS2020, but as you'll see, there will be a ton of updates before that program is tweaked. It's taken over ten years to tweak the hell out of FSX, and the truth is, with the new technology available, FSX is better than ever. SEMPER FIDELIS.

Too slow! max speed is Mach 1.24? That's not right. there was a german variant that had reduced thrust and top speed but it was only down from M2.2 to M1.74 not these slow pokes maxing out at M1.24.

Why is there zero performance boost when applying full throttle with afterburn? slowest free F4 model around, max speed is M1.25at any altitude. Just a shame because these are some good-looking planes inside and out.

there is a file labeled f-35 hud i dont know where to put it in the files

Everything works fine I have the steam edition I love it. just not sure how to use the autopilot type stuff on it.

Can't get the instruments or effects to work after copying them to the appropriate folders. Bummer

A seriously great plane and model. However, as a carrier plane it doesn't seem to be compatible with the catapult or the arrester cables. I did find the command to animate the extension of the front gear which show a steam cat connection but it does not function for launch. I'm trying to copy from the config files of other air craft. We'll see. Any advice welcome because I would love to use this for carrier ops.

This fighter flies like a dream with these 2 aileron config file changes. taxis better also!

There is a "Effects_Textures_Folder". Does that get copied in also please? Thank you. David
