huh?

I cant make the directions any more simplistic

what do you mean you cant get it installed?

It just overwrites the main Texture folder in FSX AFTER you back that folder up

what i do is
1. open the zipped folder

2. open the main FSX folder
3.Copy and paste the texture folder into a backup folder i have on my desktop
4.open the install autogen folder
5.copy and paste the folder named 'texture' into the FSX texture folder
6.close the readme and both zip file and main FSX folder windows
7.start up fsx and click fly now and every thing is still the default autogen
:-?

Don't copy the texture folder from the zip...copy the contents of the zip folder to
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Texture

1. open the zipped folder

I hope you mean you DECOMPRESS the zip folder to a NORMAL folder before you start moving things around and are not OPENING the zip directly to work with files

If you are thats is a NO NO and you may have even damaged your backup



7.start up fsx and click fly now and every thing is still the default autogen



Yes, it is.. isnt it

What are you expecting? all brand new buildings, houses and businesses?


Please look at a compare of nights here

http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?s=&s ... &p=1509604



This is a repair and enhancement of the default autogen. We fixed many issues the autogen textures had... still working on nights here too with 24 more textures we will release, but the textures are not brand new buildings and houses.. they are enhanced to be much better defined and also completely change how they look at night

if your system was already blury and you just dont know how blury it really is then you may not be able to tell the difference



You can see the rooftop details now... weathering, utilities... etc

The colors are more robust and realisic looking... night ligting and contrast on the buildings is completely changed and upgraded

WRONG!

although that will work if you decompress the zip that is not what my directions say to do!






Once you DECOMPRESS a ZIP file to a FOLDER before you do ANYTHING.. then do exactly as my directions specify

ENHANCED AUTOGEN TEXTURE FILES INSTALLATION:

Inside this package, open the folder named:

Install Autogen Textures

Inside that folder you will find the following directory:

Texture

Simply COPY and PASTE the entire TEXTURE folder into the main Flight Simulator X directory. Select YES to allow the process to complete and OVERWRITE the autogen textures in FSX



If you guys are not decompressing zips before working with contents you are asking for trouble.. one day its going to bite you in the arse!

Why dont you post a screenshot of something that does not look any different to you than default

post the location data too.. LON LAT MAG ALT and I will look at it in compare

I will need to know what addons you use.. UTX, SceneryTech Landclass, FSGenesis Landclass, Xclass.. anything that would change the texture use.



and I will need exact data and time too
