What's wrong with this?

Recommended Posts

OK what do I have out of whack to where my stock migs aren't flyable. I know about the common knowledge about adding the A-4 pit and changing the ini's etc. I even have enough knowledge to swap pits and even used some downloaded ones on different planes. My AN-2, B52's, TU, B1's, F-111's (on my old comp when the F-111's didn't have a pit with them) etc I got all working no problems. A copy n paste from my Mig-17 folder.

I've tried it with and without the avionics files, All the spelling and upper/lower casses match the files exactly(went to rename folder and just copy/pasted it to ensure exact spelling in case my vision is deceiving me) and all the files listed are there as well. The pit folder and file I'm using is just one from the Mig 17's already working (the EAF one I think). Like I said tried just following the common knowledge, and even tried using the "Make mig's flyable" ini's as follows

 

[AircraftData]

AircraftFullName=MiG-17 Fresco-A

AircraftDataFile=MiG-17_data.ini

LoadoutFile=MiG-17_loadout.iniCockpitDataFile=A-4B_cockpit.ini

 

Pulled every Mig-17 file from the object.cat and created another one just in case it still won't let me fly it. What am i missing here.

Important is the line:

I have a MiG-15_cockpit.ini file. If i make a typo like MiG15_cockpit.ini then i wont work.
