Adding Scenery upgrades and upgrades on upgrades

Postby JJH » Thu Jan 22, 2009 8:56 am

Technical question: Ref pages 90,100 & 101 - FS2004 Scenery

Page 90 lists an upgrade to McCarran Airport in Las Vegas;
Page 100 lists another upgrade to McCarran Airport in Las Vegas;
Page 101 lists a further upgrade to McCarran Airport in Las Vegas
All by Jose Gutierrez.

Would it be necessary to install all three, or just the last one?

In other words, do designers generally incorporate previous upgrades into their subsequent upgrades? I assume they would, but would like confirmation.

I suppose it would depend on the designer. Some make upgraded packages to be stand alone installs, some don't. Usually, the read-me file will tell you if you need to have the base packages installed first.

Your safest bet might be to download and install all three, in order, and just overwrite the older files as needed.

(I'm affraid that's the best I can help you out, as I don't have that scenery instaled.)

Jim,

It appears that each install is a complete install. I would suggest that you download the v2.1 install from paga 101.

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.
