I don’t fully understand what goes in what folder in the FS2 file structure when downloading cultivation’s. On that web page (flight-Sim.org), most of the cultivation’s don’t tell you what folder path to put the zip files into. I’m finally experimenting with them with no success 😞 as I’m staying with FS2.

You can find some information about this in the FAQ's of flight-sim.org or just take a look at one of my sceneries like Vancouver Mega Scenery, BC.

Ya BC is one of the cultivations I want. So all 5 parts of your BC cultivation go into the scenery file nowhere else...?

All files go into the "...\addons\scenery\<scenery-name>\" folder *) respecting the correct subfolder structure:
It's easier for updates if you keep the 5 parts as separate ones (mergin into one scenery would also be possible). Feel free to rename the scenery-names (lowercase without spaces then required especially for FS4).
Does it work for you now?
*) There is often a confusion: "..\addons\scenery\" ist not same folder as just "..\scenery \"
... and sorry, just noticed that in my description the "scenery\" has been missing after "...\addons\...", fixed that now! -
According the given folders: airports to airports, places to places.
Folder Structure:
British Columbia BC
- airports
- elevation
- images
- places
Sometimes there is also an airports folder in the places folder. I have put these airports also into the 'main' airports folder. This is not necessary but works and like this I have all airports in one folder. I think there is also a naming convention to have the airport abbreviations in front of the airport name and written everything in lowercase. Again, not necessary but my understanding is that there is a loading speed benefit.
