Good morning all...

The new scenery install for FS X won't install on my computer for some reason.

I have downloaded it twice and put in new folders.

I have tried this four or five times and it goes to the last 10 seconds and then Windows Explorer cuts in with encountering a problem every time.  Shuts down the install.

I am not running anything else while doing the install and this computer has lots of room on it.

I am running Vista as well.

Any help will be most appreciated.  Thanks in advance....

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

The new scenery install for FS X...

Are you reffering to the Grand Canyon 2m Photoreal v2.0?  :-?

No the texture upgrade.

Hi Doug,

According to the readme file, installing the new autogen textures is simply a matter of copying the new textures over the originals in the Texture directory. I installed them yesterday, and I couldn't tell you if it worked or not. There is currently a snow storm over the Eastern Washington area, and with Real World Weather, it's completely whiteout conditions.

So I fired up FS, filed an IFR flightplan, and i'm currently flying through the snow storm, heading south so I can see the new autogen textures

Make sure you make a backup of your original textures before overwriting them

Hi Andrew

Just sent you a note as you were typing the above post I suspect.

I backed up old textures in the Folder supplied.  Checked yes they were there.
Went to other Folder, copied textures, pasted them in FS X Textures.

Yes it looks simple enought but the last 10 seconds Windows Explorer encounters a problem and shuts me down.

Cheers...Doug

I recently started having the same problem in Vista Explorer.

Thanks SVMirador for the information.

Will give it a try.
