It isn't the same for all scenery addons. So, if you could provide the exact filename or the link to the file we could take a look at give you more info. Generally there are three ways of installing scenery:


By copying scenery files and textures to Addon Scenery subfolder, in the respective scenery and texture folders under Addon SceneryBy making a custom folder under Addon Scenery (and in the custiom folder again Scenery and texture subfolders). And then "including" that scenery via Flight Simulator interfaceBy copying scenery files in the main scenery folders overwriting default scenery files

So, usually, one of theese three ways does the trick...you just have to know which one to use, and most of the time, readme.txt, that comes with the addon can tell you that.

all right, listen closely, or read closely
Im taking this right out of the readme BTW

1: Create a folder called VHHX of whatever you want in ...\FS2004\ADDON SCENERY folder

2. Go back to the download file and cut and paste the 2 folders, Scenery and Texture, into the folder you just created.

3. The downloaded file contains a folder called AFCAD.There is a file called AF2_VHHX.bgl. Copy this into your ..\FS2004\ADDON SCENERY\scenery folder

5. Start fs, go to Settings. Go to Scenery Library and then Add Area. Add the folder you created in the \ADDON SCENERY folder. Press OK and restart fs.

6. Go to VHHX and discover the horrors of flying there with a small plane

:D 8O

ask questions if you have any!!


The author seems to have forgotten to delete the flashing light on top of buildings. So you might see some flashing red lights on top of buildings that aren't there...Good luck
