Try taking out the leading space in the SIM= and MODEL= sections, and ensure that the TEXTURE= is exactly what the texture folder is named.

have u checked the panel.cfg file in the aircraft folder is it can't find the correct path then it won't show up in aircraft selection screen.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SimObjects\Airplanes\EP-3E_FSX\panel

in mine it is:

[fltsim]
alias=\P-3C_ORION_FSX\Panel.The general-purpose virtual cockpit for the P-3 series

I have a bat rack installed and it shows up. I don't know if it has anything to do with your issues but, try separating each texture entry [FLTSIM.x] with a single space. I do.

Mine runs fine just as shown

I wonder if you left off something in your copy paste. In a situation such as yours, I found that I either had forgot to number the [FLTSIM.X] part or partially copied it i.e.

FLTSIM.2] <<<< check to see if the left bracket is missing. That happened to me once and I did not see the airplane on the preview screen.


the panel.cfg file should not be at fault because the contents are correct the way it was written. You have to have the Basic P-3C program installed because the EP-3E makes a call on the
basic P-3C panel to function.

The BAT RACK problem I have, is now taken care of.


I reinstalled the paint and paint .cfg entry info. The paint looks great.

Thanks all for the inputs to my problem.

I downloaded the fix and didn't see a readme in it. Where do the three files go?.

[JensOle]

I have not downloaded the update myself, but most likely it is simply to replace the files of similar names with the new ones.

[racartron]

Just replace the existing Model folder completely.

[jmbiii]

Will be uploaded soon.

Attachment 6640The WORNING needs to be fixed to read WARNING.

Some upgrade is given to this P3K2 model.
Although it is partial, it is the model which took in advance and carried out future upgrade.

[brausch]

Amongst other things,..the Prop spinners have been reshaped to make them less pointy and exactly like the real ones,..spec shine has been removed from the tyres..no longer shiny,...new aerial wires with sag (nice attention to detail ),..and lots of other things. Thankyou Hiroaki,..she looks awesome !.

Wonderful shot.
The shape of the foundation of the antenna serves as a reference.

While we wait for the Bravo model...

The Saints from 333 Skv proves that the P-3C actually is acrobatic capable....

While they are actually still inside aircraft limits, it makes for an awsome show! The film also shows part of Andøya, the home base of the Norwegian Orions and really an outpost during the winter... Nice in the short summer though..

[JensOle]

Im in need for some help here; the upcoming bravo will have the standard an/pvq2 search light pod, do any of you know about a long range fsx light fx file? (Is it Even possible?)
