P-51D in X-Plane Winter

What it  is has done is make a winter folder under root of X plane 10 folder.  

 

This is wrong, of course. On Windows, such thing would only occur if you had not set the JSGME directory correctly.

 

You need to do the following steps:

 

1. Within the X-Plane 10 folder, create a folder called "MODS" (this is the default folder name JSGME expects, but you can choose another name)

 

2. Copy the "Winter" folder from the download into the folder you created in step 1. Your folder structure should be like this:

 

X-Plane 10

|__MODS

     |__Winter

          |__Custom Scenery

          |__Resources

 

3. Copy JSGME.exe and its related files into the X-Plane 10 folder.

 

4. Start JSGME. It will ask you for a folder name where to look for the mods, which is "MODS" by default.

 

5. JSGME will show you all mods you currently have in the folder. This should only be Winter at this point.

 

6. Select and activate Winter mod. JSGME will now copy all the files from within the Winter folder into the corresponding X-Plane folders. At the same time, JSGME will backup the original X-Plane files.

 

 

If you've done all the steps correctly, and still end up with a complete "Winter" folder inside your X-Plane folder, then maybe Wine's file copying does not work as on Windows.

Just a note on this:

 

 

 

As there is only a C drive under wine and does not have any of the X plane stuff. I have x plane and JSGME with the MODS under the linux system.

 

Even when you have jsgme.exe in your X-Plane folder, it will use the default Wine C drive environment. I'm not sure (it's a while ago since I used Wine the last time), but it might even translate your X-Plane folder to a Windows-like path name, and this may lead to problems with the copying process. But again, I'm not sure.

 I have done exactly that everything is in the X plane root folder, maybe i will try it again later.

Well, then either you just think you have done exactly that ;) or JSGME does not work correctly using Wine.

 

Maybe you can post a screenshot of your folder and of JSGME. Perhaps I can see something.

Okay. I think I know what you did wrong. I guess your folder structure is

 

X-Plane 10

|__MODS

     |__Winter_Package_Mod

          |__Winter

                |__Custom Scenery

                |__Resources

 

This is wrong.

 

It should be either:

 

X-Plane 10

|__MODS

     |__Winter

          |__Custom Scenery

          |__Resources

 

or

 

X-Plane 10

|__MODS

     |__Winter_Package_Mod

          |__Custom Scenery

          |__Resources

 

Please confirm.

I will revert back with the details thanks Mario.

Thank you for the wonderful work! I now have winter scenery! :)

 

It wasn't easy to do it as there are a lot of words on explanations. I thought I strip it simply;

 

1 - Download JSGME package/folder (I got mine from game front com)

 

2- Take JSGME exe file from this downloaded folder and place it in the x-plane main folder.

 

3 - Create a folder called MODS in X-plane main directory.

 

4- Download Winter Scenery Package (folder)

 

5- Take out the 'WINTER' TITLED folder from Winter_Package_mod folder just downloaded (containing Custom Scenery & Resources).

 

6- Place this 'WINTER' folder into the MODS folder you created earlier inside the X-Plane main folder.

 

7- Launch/double click to execute JSGME file then choose MODS then select WINTER to the right!

 

 

Mario's description is easy however Winter_Package_mods folder the title makes things confusion if you don't know it. I tried it many times then gave it a thought and then I realized/tried what it is to be. I hope this also helps to those got confused like myself.

 

Happy Winters! ;)

Thank you for the wonderful work!

 

Just to avoid confusion: The Winter package was made by Albert Laubi.

... and to give him some credit: Albert Laubi is the artist, who did almost all of the original ground textures in X-Plane 10 (so, he knows his stuff quite well).

 

 

By the way, you can also combine winter with UHD Mesh Scenery v1:

Thanks, I wasn't sure about this, that is why I said thanks in general. :)

 

So, big thanks go to Albert Laubi. :)
