Loading into F-22 Raptor When F-22 Raptor loads, it only uses one sav file: raptor.sav. If your file is not raptor.sav, you will have to load the information from that sav file into raptor.sav. Right click the file you wish to load, click "Load into F-22 Raptor" and all the settings in that file will be in your raptor.sav file. |

You have to hilight the text, copy it into the clipboard. Open up SAV Editor and click in the edit box (either callsign, squadron, etc) where you wish to place the copied text. Right click and select Paste. It inserts the text that you copied earlier. |
