    Hi all,

    have some problems here to establish an user addon folder for FS4 somewhere on the drives.

    I've added the following to the main.mcf: <[string8][extra_user_folder][D:\fs4addons\scenery]> . With and without "scenery" at the end.

    And on the drive it looks like this: D:\fs4addons\scenery\Japan\images\08\xxxxxxxxxx.ttc

    But it doesn't load the images, it's the default low resolution there, the airport and the cultivation works.


    Cheers

    Andreas

    Without I suppose. (D:\fs4addons)

    Because addons could be airport aircrafts as well.

    No, doesn't work either. And it's not what I have in FS2 and in FS2 there is a working user folder but was established by Orbx Central.

    Later I copied the Italy scenery by Schnuffelduffel in, works in FS2.

    The entire path here is: E:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Aerofly FS 2 Flight Simulator AddOns\scenery\Italy\images\09\xxxxxxxx.ttc

    The sequence must be images\italy and not italy\images.

    Please try

    <[string8][extra_user_folder][D:/fs4addons/]>

    with forward slashes and with trailing slash.

    You can then install scenery into D:\fs4addons\scenery\
    and aircraft into D:\fs4addons\aircraft\

    Regards,

    Jan

    Thank you all, my Japan works now and looks great. It's also by Schnuffelduffel and it's very good imagery.

    The new B737-900 is very good as well, so I like the new sim. All these airports and cultivation is a big step forward.

    The Boeing 737-900ER is included in the base package. If you have the Steam version it should already be installed on your computer.

    The 737 MAX is part of the Aircraft Add-On package.

    Jan

    Jet-Pack (IPACS) it's good to have corrected it, because just this morning, the 737-900ER (NG) was not on the list of base models.

    The content cannot be displayed because it is no longer available.

    I didn't change it today, I changed it quite some time ago. Perhaps your client still had an old cache?

    Regards,
