addon install question???

this is a project opensky 747-400 from the 2004 downloads

unzipped the downloaded folder to this OS744v3njld

if I open that, there are two more folders: 744- effects, and POSKY744DGE Jal New panel, textures, model, sound folders, etc are in the second one.
plus a readme.

readme says:
Install:
Just unzip the file and send the Aircrafts folder to the FS2002 AIRCRAFT FOLDER.

I'm not clear which folder they mean.. There is no named 'Aircrafts' folder like you would normally see.

Any help appreciated...

Well in FS9, the default is
C:\program files\microsoft games\Flight Simulator 9\aircraft
I hope this helped[/url]

thanks Mike,

I know where the fs9 aircraft folder is, what I'm not clear on is which folder he means when he says: Just unzip the file and send the Aircrafts folder

there is no aircrafts folder in the package...

what he means to do is extract the main folder in the package so it is inside the Aircraft folder...

To do this in winzip or similar, highlight the Aircraft's folder (in your case POSKY744DGE Jal New, i think) and click extract to..

Browse until you find your FS9 Aircraft folder and highlight it and click OK

This will unzip the folder with the aircraft files into the Aircraft folder.

Then, unzip the contents of the Effects folder to the FS9\Effects folder and you should be all set

thanks Insight,

got it now..
actually, the way it worked best was to put the 'OS744v3njld' folder straight into the fs9 aircraft folder..
