XPX on Steam & Addons

Recommended Posts

Evening chaps,

 

Planning on picking up XPX on Steam, just wanted to know if the stuff I DL from the .org will still work and install the same way..?

 

Also, will stuff like the FF 757 work? I'm quite confused as to how XPX is handling the addons now that we have Steam..

 

Thanks for your help, I look forward to enjoying XPX with y'all ;)

They all work the exact same way. :) 

 

The installation path is a bit longer than usual but otherwise, it works the same (other than no disc being necessary, yay!).

 

What I did was make a shortcut to the folder part of my favourite folders in Windows. Most installers (if the add-on comes with one) let you select it.

And with that, I am now a proud owner of XPX on Steam! Whoop!

 

How big was the complete DL for you, btw?

Tons and tons of photoscenery from simheaven.com :)

 

Gotcha ;)

 

So, let me bother you with one more question..

 

simheaven city areas are all-inclusive, yes? OSM+ZL17 and edges of ZL16?

No. A photo scenery can't contain OSM2XP or World2XP Data, but you can add these objects on top of the photo-scenery. But you have to maintain the priority:

Detail Sceneries like Airports on top, then the OSM Data, followed by photo scenery and then Mesh (although most photo sceneries have their own mesh anyway).
