[RESOLVED] Addon Scenery folder missing

Post by Christoph123 »

Hey guys!

I just did a clean install of the latest P3D version. I just recognized that in the P3D root folder the "Addon Scenery" folder is missing. Can I just create one, or is it in a different location now cause of a different architecture?

Thank you!

@ Christoph123 ,

By default it is not supposed to be present.

Hello Martyson!

Thank you for your reply. So in order to install my Freeware Sceneries I need to drop them into the AddonScenery Folder and add it from there via the Scenery Library in the sim. Can I just create the AddonScenery Folder and drop my Sceneries in there?

Problem solved! The AddonScenery Folder created itself upon Addon Scenery Installation.

Thank you!

The best way to add scenery is with Lorby's Add On Scenery program. It is freeware, has a small, but manageable learning curve. It will automatically find your P3D installation. Be sure to download the manual as well as the program itself. It is one of the best tools around for p3d scenery.

@ Christoph123 ,

You are welcome.

Add-on Scenery normally comes with an installer or instructions.

Best not to use any Add-on products not designed and approved by the developer for your current P3D version number.

Notes:
When reporting a problem always list the Add-ons you are using.

I do not use Lorby's Add On Scenery program for adding scenery.
I use the scenery developer's installer or instructions.
If I encounter problems I contact the scenery developer.
