add-ons.cfg in ProgramaData & Users...

Post by cirurgiao »

There are 2 add-ons.cfg:
1) ProgramData\LM\Prepar3d v5\add-ons.cfg => with Aerosoft's A330 & A320/321 (installed in drive E)
2) Users\...\Roaming\LM\Prepar3D v5\add-ons.cfg => with FSUIPC + ActiveSkyP5 + Navigraph Simlink (these 3 in C:\...\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons)
Shouldn't both add-ons.cfg have the same Packages?
Does it interfere with run of P3Dv5?
Where shall I have sceneries after their installation, like ORBX and others?

Tks

Hi cirurgiao
In these two folders, you can find same files like add-ons.cfg, exe.xml, dll.xml, ...
When P3D is loading, it read the two same file and do only one file in memory.
So there is no problem with that.
Regards
Michel

Really? This seems strange because P3Dv5 choosing one add-ons.cfg or other shouldn't interfere?
Anyway, tks fr answering Michel
