external Aircraft

Postby DonAlfonsoRoKil » Wed Jan 02, 2008 3:29 pm

hi simmers!

A friend of mine asked me recently if I could give him a few free-ware aircraft.
"A few" changed into many Gigabytes of disc space....

But he hasn't enough hard disc space for all.


Is there a way to setup another path for aircraft files like it is possible in FSX or like Scenery in FS9?

You can but doing so will slow down your frame rates. I would suggest you get a bigger hard drive or clean out some of the programs on your current drive.
It is usually a good idea to have Flight Simulator on one drive and your operating system on a separate drive [glow=yellow,2,300]NOT A PARTITION [/glow] of your current drive
Doing this will allow fs to run a little smother 8-)

I know that. But is there now a way or not?

Not in FS9 unless Gary knows something I don't.

Is it really necessary to have all these aircraft installed at the same time? He can't possibly use them all.
