Page 3/8: Adding aircrafts

First of all, be sure that you are going to install an aircraft compatible with CFS1.
Aircrafts from CFS2, FS2000 and FS2002 will not work in most of cases.

Some aircrafts are Auto-installer. Others are a simple zip file with a folder organization
1. Extract to a temporal folder
2. Look what was extracted. Dive into folders so youu reach a folder name with aircraft name.
Stop just above some folders like: model, panel, sound, texture. (is possible not all mentioned folders exist)
3. When u reach there, you have to copy (or move) this folder and all sub-folders to:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Combat Flight Simulator\Aircraft

So the final result must be some like this:
add aircraft
Chech that:
0. The Correct path to CFS aircraft folder.
1. The aircraft has his own folder.
2. In this folder you must have sub-folders: model, sound...

Repaints as Deafult textures

In many games there are not accepted the stock repaints.
So you can copy the textures of favorite repaint into the standart CFS aircrafts textures folder.
Remember to bkup all original textures!!.
