One problem solved, another shows up

Having gotten rid of my jaggies (by using nHancer and a lot of help from the good folks here at SOH) I have encounted another problem. It was not a problem before at all and now.
Okay, having checked out most of my aircraft, I came to WBS P-51B & Cs
Lo and behold they no longer sit on the runways - default or add-on. The view the cockpit is of the buildings, RW lights, and other stuff slowly rising into the air as the Tang sinks into the ground. See screenie.
Any ideas. Need some help with this one.
 
Check the cfg file to your P-51's. If you have added a repaint and edited the cfg file, it will, upon saving, lose all of its format, and the result is exactly what you have decribed. Hope this helps.
 
If its a standard runway in standard scenery then its probably the contact points in the aircraft.cfg. If its non standard scenery then it might be due the afcad or the position of the sceney in the scenery settings.

The reason I posted so quickly is that I added the repaint that became available yesterday, and my Mustangs did the same thing. I opened the aircraft cfg file and found that it was just a mass of text, with no format. I had to space things out like they supposed to be before FS9 could read the info. After that, all is well.
 
Quicksand is correct. Go through the sticky thread on the WarBirdSim Mustang, and you'll see some of our experiences with modifying the aircraft.cfg and the solutions. Hopefully, you have a backup of your aircraft.cfg.

I was able to add the new repaint without a problem, only because my earlier edits were with Notepad++.

Tidied up the aircraft cfg. file. Was it a mess. It was not like that when I first installed it. Seems to have taken place when I updated my NVIDIA drivers. And that may have been the cause of my jaggies also. A corrupted cfg.file did that to me last year, come to think of it. Tested the correction out, works great, and made copy of it, so if this happens again (and I hope it won't) I can just copy and paste. Made another folder for the one with the Beantown Banshee and all future repaints as a backup. Following my on advice.

Thanks guys

You are very welcome, Derek. I'm glad you got it sorted out. I went thru the same thing, so I feel your pain, too.:applause::woot:
