Adding Aeroplanes?

[nikbear]

I've D/L some aeroplanes from Testpilot,Junkers JU52 'Mausi' and some others,and was wondering if someone could kindly explain to me how I add them so that they show up in game I believe you have to add them to basesThere is some explanation in the readme that came with the D/L but it is only written in German,and I sadly can't speak/read a word of GermanI've tried using Babelfish to translate but it comes out making no sense whatsoever Any help on this matter gratefully received and appreciatedThank you.

I will try to explain:
Open this folder:Sh3/data/land
There you will find your airbases
Search for german airbase small,normal or large is your choice.
The file you need is LAB_LargeAirBaseGe.cfg (for large air base)
Should look like this:
[Unit]
ClassName=LargeAirBaseGe
UnitType=406
MaxSpeed=0.000000
MinSpeed=0.000000
Length=1
Width=1
[AirGroup 1]
StartDate=19380101
EndDate=19400801
Squadron1Class=LBHeinkel111
Squadron1No=4
Squadron2Class=LBJunkers.Ju.52
Squadron2No=4

[AirGroup 2]
StartDate=19400802
EndDate=19450601
Squadron1Class=LBHeinkel111
Squadron1No=4
Squadron2Class=LBJU88
Squadron2No=4
Squadron3Class=FBJU88
Squadron3No=4
Squadron4Class=FBFW190a5
Squadron4No=6
Squadron5Class=LBJu52-3M.Mausi
Squadron5No=3

If you like to add a new Air Squadron you have to add a bigger Nr., as i did (Nr.5).
The Nr. after the No (=3 in above example) will set the Nr. of airplanes to your squadron.
That was the worst part.
Now add the folder ALB_Ju52-3M.Mausi to your Air-folder, add the LBJu52-3M.Mausi.cfg to ?:\G W X 3.0\data\Roster\German\Air and, very important,
add this line:LBJu52-3M.Mausi=Junkers JU-52 Minensuchflugzeug
to your EnglishNames.cfg into your Air-folder.
After that you are able to see Mausi`s hunt for Mines.
Best regards

I perhaps should have said that I'm using GWX2.1 at the moment
A6Intruder, I think I understand you I might have to come back and clarify some things in a bit if thats ok,thank you for taking the time to explain this to me

Just realised,there is no Ju 52 in GWX2.1,so it can't be done cause TestPilots work is only a re-work,so only for GWX3.0,am I correct
