Finally got it installed!!

[kimber]

What a job!!

We could not do a second install on our FS computor!!
Everytime I put the disc in it would start FS9!!
If I closed that and tried to run the setup manually,
it would start FS9!!

SO!! I installed it to the external HD on a different
computor and then copied the new install to a different
HD on the FS computor!!

Renamed the exe and cfg and made the new shortcut
and every thing is running fine!!

It is just a bit rougher on FPS than FS9, but that is
not a problem for us!!

Flew the Cub a bit, and it looks great!!

Bill;

Did you replace the default trees?? I may try
Mr. Gs trees??

Rename your FS9 folder to eliminate this

This is because most of the ground textures are photo-real - Good to hear you got it going

Hi P;

We don't have a folder named FS9!! It is installed on HD
E, When you open the HD you have all the folders!!
We tried renaming everything and it always opened
the flight sim!! We even put the exe and cfg in another
folder named stuff and it still did it!!

One note, the two installs still share the saved flight
file, so be careful which flights you try to open in each
install!!

[Admin]

Hi Kimber-
I empty my saved flight folder after each session. I have a folder under flights in each install where I move them

Kimber,
When you get a chance (since there are so many things to explore in this) Check out some of Bill's weather themes - especially the turbulence one.... ;D

BTW, it runs fine without the patch, I will add the bridges
later, and it is fine with the no, you know what , .exe!!

You might want to install the patch because it eliminates a Microsoft acknowledged memory leak.....

The two times we tried the patch in our FS9 install, we
had to do a reinstall to get the %$^%$^ thing to run!!
It made a new cfg everytime it booted up!! The clickers
in the VC would not work, and a bunch of other problems!!

NO thanks!! ;D
