Scenery Add problem

Featured Replies

Yes....I know that with Windows 7 and FSX that scenery addon procedures requires clicking in a blank space in the library, but honestly, I still cannot get that to work. What is the secret to making it work again. I tried searching the forums here, but I must be using the wrong search terms because I cannot find the answer. I must be doing something (very simple) wrong. Please help me with this, and I will print the answer for future reference.Stan

The only way I can ever get it to work is to turn off the user account control. keith

It is OFF (I always keep it off). But it's still a challenge. Exactly what is your technique for adding scenery? Maybe I'm still doing something wrong.Stan

Thanks anyway...I finally found the solution. Here's what I found:In settings choose Scenery Library, click Add Area, then locate your folder and select it.The full path will show as: Directory (left of the OK button).Click OK, in Vista this returned, in Windows 7 it clears the Directory window and shows the Scenery and/or Texture folder names.Now right click somewhere in that large white area below the folder names and the area is added. Only the right click is new, but vital.I found this outside of the Avsim site, but now I know that you have to click OK and THEN click on the white area below the scenery and texture folders.Stan

This is a very good video showing how it is done:http://iblueyonder.com/video-tutorial-adding-scenery-to-fsx-in-windows-7/
