I just downloaded a SimV Aircraft that said it would work in FS2004/FSX but it doesn't give directions for FSX. I need to know what files go in the Effects folder and what goes in the Aircraft folder. The Aircraft is: FS2004/FSX UPS McDonnell Douglas MD-11. I am rather kind of Embarrassed about this. :-[ I have never needed help with a download before. :-/

Several files fit your description. It would help if you posted a link to the page the file is posted on.

If it's the one I think it is installation should be straightforward enough. Extract the zip file & paste the extracted folder named UPSMD11 into your FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes folder. Move the 3 included FX files from the Effects folder to FSX\Effects.

If this is the model by Abdullah Rahman, copy the UPSMD11 folder to FSX/Simobjects/Aircraft and then move the contents of the UPSMD11/Effects folder to your FSX/Effects folder. Then delete the empty UPSMD11/Effects folder. You may also need to move the contents of the UPSMD11/Sound folder to your FSX/Sound folder.
