Cherokee not showing in P3Dv4

Post by Ron Attwood »

I have the T-6, Comanche, Cherokee, C182 ans C172 for P3Dv4. I relented and Next, click, next clicked, Finish. as per the installer. Of course, all aircraft ended up in Documents\A2A\Simobjects.
All aircraft show up in the v4 selection list...Except the Cherokee. Nothing I can find looks out of place. I disabled the A2A add-on withing v4, restarted etc. etc. to see if the Cherokee could be 'bump started' Nah.
Had a Google and only BladderBoy's thread re the C172 bore any resemblance except I didn't try to install any where else.
I'll try a reinstall and see if that does anything.

Do you by any chance have the "Show Only Favorites" button clicked?

Good try. :D If I did there would be a few Cherokees there. An update though. I threw out the old folder and reinstalled. Lo and behold the Cherokee reappeared. So far, so good. However...When I added my repaints it all went titus upus again. More digging...
Thanks for the thought Pat.

TADA! Got it! For reasons best known to themselves, A2A, God Bless 'em, saw fit to change this: title=Piper Pa-28-180 Cherokee X-XXXX to this: title=A2A Piper Pa-28-180 Cherokee X-XXXX. Spot the difference? :roll: From FSX to P3Dv3 it has been as per example 1. The other A2A aircraft are all titled differently!
T-6: A2A North American T-6 Texan XXX
C172: C172R X-XXXX
C182: C182 XXXXX
Comanche: Piper Pa-24-250 Comanche XXXXX
Those four have remained the same from version to version.
Grrr!

Funny, the first Texan repaint I tried left off the A2A in the CFG entry, took me forever to find it. Glad you figured it out faster than I did.
