Talking of ORBX Sceneries, if space on the default P3D drive is running low, can ORBX sceneries be installed on a different drive but added to P5D's Addon Scenery Library?

Yes, see the Orbx FTX Tips&Tricks forum

No you can't add Orbx via the scenery library, there must be the ORBX folder in the root folder. However you can use a symbolic link to store your folders elsewhere and provide a link to the root folder. Suggest you sign up to the ORBX forum if not already as the details can be found there.

Hi Ian

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, am a member of the ORBX Forum. Reason I had asked the question was I goofed when making partitions for my 500Gb SATA HDD, and only allocated 125Gb for C:\, then too late, realised I had a heap of ORBX bought sceneries.

Where in the ORBX Forum is that info to do what you have suggested?
