new planes in FS5

5 posts by 5 people · 30 Dec 1997 - 31 Dec 1997

Hello, theres a little problem with my FS5. I have downloaded some new planes from different servers and copied the files in the correct directories. After starting FS, I can see the new planes to choose them. When Im clicking on one of the new planes, the program stops and says: "missing the file simfsfs.fs0". This message appears only by choosing the new planes, not at the FS5-standard-planes. Who can help me? Thanks for every answer.

Probably the folks in the flight-sim newsgroup.

You either need to: Buy a copy of Flight Shop-you must install it in order to fly aircraft made with it. Get a copy of FS98 and then download and install the free Flight shop aircraft and adventure converter avialable at Microsoft's website. >Hello, >theres a little problem with my FS5.

The file, SIMFSFS.FS0 is part of a commercial product named Flight Simulator Flight Shop, (FSFS), initially published by BAO (Bruce Artwick Organization) in the U.S. and Apollo Software for the rest of the world. Since MS bought out BAO, Flight Simulator Flight Shop is published exclusively by Apollo Software. FSFS is required for flying the add-on planes and adventures in MS FS5.0 and FS5.1. FSW95 and FS98 do not require this program, but require the installation of a converter, (FSCONV.EXE and FSCONV98.EXE, respectively), free from Microsoft. - RushMan (MS_MVP)
