How much space needed

Postby dido41 » Tue Mar 16, 2010 4:41 pm

If I was to load flight sim x deluxe, excel pack, ultra terrain x, ground x, flight x, how much room would this take up. I do not plan to add anything ells for some time.

Thanks

Well, okay.  Wrong spot to put this.  It should be in the FSX section, but a mod will move it soon.

I don't think anyone could know this right offhand.  Your best option is to find the websites of each product and find out how much each one takes up, then add.

As a rough guess, I would say at least 40 GB, probably more.

I'm running Deluxe with quite a few addons and am only at 23GB.  :-/

If you're worried about having enough hard drive space left on your computer, just buy another hard drive.... ;D

Seriously, your 30gb (or whatever it is freshly installed) FSX directory will probably slowly grow into well over 100gb from addons.... :o

There was a thread on how big is your flight sim, several were over 150 gig, at that time, I think mine was 82 gig.  :)
