Moving scenery folders from SSD to HD

[carlscott 0]

Any help with moving large folders from SSD to HD.  I tried to use Link Shell Extension program and got everything messed up and had to uninstall P3Dv4.  Have not tried to reinstall yet.  Be nice if there was a way to install on the large drive instead of the SSD.

A simple copy command is all it takes... don't know why this would be so complicated..  I moved a bunch of my Orbx scenery to a separate drive and provided a simple symbolic link afterwards so that P3D can find it all.  ORBX Central does not even know that it happened.

Hey Carl-

I use this to create the symbolic link Bert's talking about.

Nick over at ORBX gives instructions on how to use it.

Search there.

Cheers,

For add-ons, just cut and plast, edit scenery.cfg or just edit it in menu, or edit add-on.xml....

Don't try to move the default one.. I tried, it doesn't work....
