Would appreciate anyone pointing me to the install procedure for add-on scenery, such as the zip files located in the download section.

TIA,
HardLanding

Different scenery has different ways of installation. Check the read-me, if that doesn't help let us know which you downloaded and we will check it out.

Two files for Hungary, Kecskemet and Debrecen, lhke2.zip and lhdc.zip. The readmes include only a brief description of the airfields. The zipfiles have a lot of bmp's, plus bgl's and agn's. Not sure what the latter two are.

Thanks,

They're airports so they should be loaded like this. Step by step.
All you use is the folder not the rest.

******************

1. Extract the zip into your main FS2004 Addon Scenery folder, or into a temporary folder, and then move it there, which ever method you prefer.
I use the temp and drag and drop.

2. Start up FS2004 and when the welcome screen, or initial menu comes on, select settings, then click on Scenery Library, and Add Area. Find the Addon Scenery folder and open it, then find the XXXX folder and click on it. The name XXXX should now appear in the title window, then click OK. Then you will see XXXX at the top of your scenery library list, and click the OK tab at the bottom.

3. That's it! You must first exit FS2004, and when you restart it your scenery will be there. It is not necessary to use the Addon Scenery option to locate this scenery, simply go to the airport in FS.

do you have to select "search add on scenery" in teh create flight menu? is there a generic help/text file that shows which folders should be used for which items. I mean, where do I put the aircraft, it's all a bit much...

I hope you're not getting the scenery mixed up with the aircraft. They are two different categories 🙂
