I've had this installed fine before until my FS2004 installation suddenly dropped to 0.5fps for no apparent reason. Anyway it is all back up & running and I'm reinstalling all my stuff.

I'm installing from my big backup DVDs and can't remember how I did this last time... no installer and a dir structure like this;

F:\Aerosoft
F:\Effects
F:\Aerosoft\Manhattan
F:\Aerosoft\Manhattan\Product.cfg
F:\Aerosoft\Manhattan\SCENERY
F:\Aerosoft\Manhattan\SCENERY.dat
F:\Aerosoft\Manhattan\TEXTURE
F:\Effects\ny_mid_Smoke.fx
F:\Effects\ny_small_smoke.fx

Which folders to I copy to? I think I have to keep the \Aerosoft\Manhattan\ structure under AddonScenery???

These two go to the main Effects folder:
F:\Effects\ny_mid_Smoke.fx
F:\Effects\ny_small_smoke.fx

Then, to put the rest, go to the Addon Scenary folder and you will have two folders there, scenary and texture.
All the scenary files go to the scenary folder, and all the texture files go to the texture folder.

Thanks. Where does the scenery.dat file go - on the CD it isn't in the Scenery folder...

I checked on my computer and I found the SCENARY.dat on the Addon Scenary folder. I guess it's on the right place. Don't put it inside the textures or the scenary folder.

I'm still unsure - there are 2 update ZIP files and their structure does not match that -

FS2004\Aerosoft\Manhattan\Scenery
FS2004\Scenery\Cities\Newyork\Texture

No mention of the dir FS2004\Addon Scenery

The instructions are VERY poor, don't even mention installation.
