The Files And How To Install Them

Once you have downloaded your Freeware,

You will probably end up having either a .rar or a .zip file. (You'll need WinRar to open them)

That's what file type it is in most cases.

You can also be lucky that the Freeware has an installer for it so you won't have to worry about

anything.

Usually most of these .rar or .zip files has a Read Me in it.

Anyway let's get to how to install the Freeware.

Let's say we have a pack that looks like that on the photo. (Sorry for the FPS counter)

If you have WinRar, you can open your file to see what the files inside looks like.

if it looks like that on the photo, you wanna exit the .rar/.zip file, and extract it either to a folder on your

desktop, or to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes

If you extracted it to a folder on your desktop, just drag and drop the folder into the same directory as if you were to extract it.

Then you're pretty much good to go.

If you have a different looking file, say it looked like this:

You would need to Drop the B717-200 folder into the same directory as before, but you're not done completely by doing that. You would also need to open the ''Effects'' folder and copy the .fx files into C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\Effects and the same with the Gauges and Sound. Except you don't put them into the Effects folder of course but into the Gauges and Sound folder in your directory.

Enjoy Your New Airplanes!

And that's pretty much how to install Freeware!

If you have any questions regarding the installation, Just leave them down below and i'll try to answer them as best as i can.

Have fun!
