Definition Installation

 To install the aircraft definitions found in the library, follow these steps:

1. Open up Windows Explorer and find the 3wirex configuration folder located in <fsx root>\3wirex\config\. Usually the full path is "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\3wirex\config\" but this may vary depending on your computer setup.
2. In this folder you should see the acdef.xml file, this is the file that contains all the aircraft definitions. Open this file in notepad or your favorite text editor. Be careful as on some computers the file it will open in Internet Explorer when double clicked!
3. The next thing to do is copy and paste the definition from the library and into the file. The definition should be pasted at the bottom of the file, but it must be placed above the line with the </modeldef> tag.
4. You should end up with something looking like this:
   

   <modeldef>
     <model>
   .....(some models here)
     </model>
     <model>
       <title>T-45 Goshawk</title>
       <catholdforce>34</catholdforce>
       <catforce>350</catforce>
       <arrestforce>220</arrestforce>
       <offsets>
           <hookend x="-14.5" y="0.0" z="-5.3" />
       </offsets>
       <linkedaircraft>
           <aircraft>BAe Hawk T-45C Clean</aircraft>
           <aircraft>BAe Hawk T-45C BDU-33</aircraft>
           <aircraft>BAe Hawk T-45C Clean (USMC)</aircraft>
           <aircraft>BAe Hawk T-45C BDU-33 (USMC)</aircraft>
           <aircraft>BAe Hawk T-45C Blue Angels</aircraft>
       </linkedaircraft>
     </model>
   </modeldef>

   Notice how the new <model> section is below the previous </model> but above the </modeldef>.
5. Save the file and exit notepad. Now start up FSX and try and put it on the deck.
