HELP!!! A2002 DELETED MY AFD-FILES!!!

[Guest]

This is really outrageous: a couple of months ago I purchased Wilco Airport 2002. After discovering that it was terrible scenery, I deactivated it. Since there were still remnants of FSNAT severely slowing down my framerates, I decided to fully de-install the application. ANd now hold your breath: all the AFD files for the areas which have A2k2 airports are GONE!!! No more entries in the airport registry, no more AFCADs. All I am left with are some old backups, which date several months back. I have LOST all my recently customised AFCADs! First I am mad about Wilco. How can they have a de-install procedure which simply destroys AFD files?? This is just the icing on the cake, which was quite bitter already given that they were marketing a product which many people justifiably got upset about.Second, and more important: is there any way that I can recover my most recent AFD files? The backups clearly are only second best, as they are old. Any hints?CheersChris

If the files were deleted, then no! You may want to extract all the default AFD files from your CDs to a Temporary folder then selectively copy them to your fs2002scenedbAFDFILESScenery folder. Restart fs2002 to recatalog the scenery files, then use AFCAD to install the updated afcad files you want for those areas corrupted.
