So, after a long hiatus due to priorities and the old laptop not being sustainable, I opted to re-enter FS at some point in the future (precisely FSX:SE), with 96% of my older add-ons, coupled with a bunch of newer releases and stuff that I have tried finding in the past without luck, with a bigger laptop in terms of storage (480GB storage; 235GB available and 8GB RAM). Though, I am setting up all my add-ons now to avoid nasty surprises when I have the sim installed.
Would be nice to know if it is possible to:
1) locate the OOM patcher since the previous links I searched on the internet are all dodos by now.
2) Relating to #1, I am planning to load up the simulator with a lot of aircraft types, so I wonder if it is optimal for me to localize the Virtual Cockpit panels of some aircraft to a specific folder (specifically, having the default 737-800 and the 18 TDS 737-700s utilize the same interior model and VC-panel; in this case the one equipped to the Crescent Heights BBJ, similar situation among the 777s and the entire load of A320-series). So far I know how to alias 2D panels and sound packs, but not sure about VC panels. All for the purpose of minimizing the storage I use since the same laptop I intend to run FSXSE on is also used for other work-related purposes until I have my older computer refurnished with bigger RAM, then I can move all my other work matters to that other laptop and reserve the current one for FS use.
Thanks in advance. I am not in that much of a rush to re-install FSX-SE yet though in my Windows 10 laptop to avoid nasty surprises, additional other input will be nice.
