    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Aliasing a VC

I've copied my FS9 Wilco/feelThere Boeing 737 into FSX.

But I'm having trouble trying to alias the VC of the FS9 Wilco/feelThere Boeing 737 to the default FSX B737-800

The Wilco Boeing 737 looks and flies good in FSX apart from the panel/gauges not working.

I can't be bothered buying the FSX version so I've been trying to get VC aliased to the default 737 (not entirely accurate but ... )

I had success in modifying the Scottish Aviation Twin Pioneer and aliasing the VC to the default DC-3.

With the Wilco 737 I've copied various FSX default B737-800 files across (eg .. B737_800_interior.mdl etc) but the aircraft is totally invisible in the sim when I try to use the aliased VC.

Any help greatly appreciated thanks.

Hello,

You can only alias a VC if the aircraft model is native FSX and does not
already have a VC model built into the aircraft model.
 
Don't bother. As far as I know, even the FSX version of the Wilco 737 doesn't use FSX native models.
