Idiot's guide to install the OWL into FSX
Please help me (those who have done it) on how to install the owl into FSX flawlessly??
1. AIRCRAFT. Copy main aircraft folders

to FSX: ..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SimObjects\Airplanes\WoP_He219***
2. TEXTURE. Copy shared texture files
from FS2004: ..\Flight Simulator 9\Texture
these files:
glass_uhu1.bmp
glass_uhu2.bmp
napis_uhu.bmp
prop_uhu.bmp
radio_uhu.bmp
uhu_glass_t.bmp *)
uhutank.bmp
to FSX (MULTICOPY ALL FILES TO ALL LOCAL AIRCRAFT PAINT SCHEME TEXTURE FOLDERS):
..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SimObjects\Airplanes\WoP_He219***\texture.**
*) In case you miss this file: http://shockwaveproductions.com/public/uhu_glass_t.zip
3. EFFECTS. Copy *.FX files
from FS2004: ..\Flight Simulator 9\Effects
these files:
fx_wop_vclight_uhu.fx
fx_WOP_strobe.fx
fx_wop_cel.fx

"in game icons"? Do you mean the thumbnails in aircrafts selection screen? If yes, you have to make them yourself or ask the forum members to share their JPGs.
He219 is not going to be officially updated/upgraded to FSX in a near future. This quick "do_it_yourself" guide provides all necessary information how to port this aircraft from FS2004 to FSX in a decent shape.
Personally - Uhu is my pet - I would decide to make her as fully native FSX project rather than simple putting in next FS2004 aircraft without taking advantage of all the excellent new FSX stuff like specular and bump maps which makes an aircraft to look and behave as it should in dynamic enviroment. Compare our B17 in FS2004 and FSX if you have a chance - there's no comparison. However we have no free time window for such huge task.
