What would be really nice is if the popular AI packages included an unpainted version of each model ... then vPilot could choose that model when there is no livery match.

It would indeed, although I don't expect that to happen.

Neither do I ... unfortunately it's somewhat of a niche requirement for VATSIM.

vPilot 2.0.7 is now available (still in open beta) which makes use of a list of type codes which normally are flown with a livery. Any type code not found on that list (such as the C172 and other GA aircraft) will be identified and used for model matching even if there is no airline code found in the atc_parking_codes value in the aircraft.cfg file.

Ross,

had no time to fly for a while. Today, I installed 2.0.8 and could verify that it now automatically detects changes to installed aircraft.cfg files. Perfect!

I am going to check the updated GA (non-airline) aircraft model matching yet.

 

Thanks a lot and keep up the good work.

After upddating to 2.0.8 last week and a couple of flights in the meantime, I could see that the model matching of non-liveried aircraft now works as desired. Good job, Ross!
