I don't remember, but it only takes a few minutes to look in each disc for the Textures folder.

If you are too lazy to mess around just reinstall the whole thing.  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D Store all the addons somewhere safe if you decide to do that.  :)

You can always use a sort of reverse engineering. :)

Take one of the many freeware water add-ons, open it and write down the names of all the .BMP files it comes with. Go in the installation disks and take down, from the Texture folder inside the CAB's, the .BMP files with the same names and put them into your FS9/Texture folder overwriting the existing files.
There's but one real cure for human stupidity. It's called DEATH.

At the moment mourning the assassination of sarcasm and irony for the good of the "higher".

Fozzers Tip Of The Day... :-*...

Whenever considering replacing the original Objects, Textures, Scenery, etc, ALWAYS create a blank Folder, name it with the objects you are going to change, "Trees", "Water", etc, and cut and paste all the objects in that Folder, and pop the folder into the Main Textures, etc, Folder first for safe keeping...!
..then if all goes pear-shaped with your replacement files, all you have to do is replace them with the originals in your spare Folder..;)...!!
...sorted... :)...!
