Hi there,

Just in case not known yet,

the links from the freewarescenery.com to the flightsim.com no longer work. Guessing still pointed to the old Flightsim site.

When doable the links should be pointedt to the the new site (here)

Cheers,

Hi all,

I am the maintainer of the freewarescenery.com website. Once flightsim.com implements searching of files by filename, then I can adjust all the links. Until then, just search flightsim.com by hand, as you know the file you are looking for is present if you found it on my site.

I also tried abilene.zip with no success, however when I searched abilene I found it right away,

Not sure why the search sometimes works with or without the .zip.

Could be that the search is for text fragments within the body each page, not the file?

Indeed you are probably right. Still there is no way to search for file names. That means I can not convert the old links on my site, which are based on file name, to the new site.  That's a real pity.

Its already here, just be sure to add .zip at the end of the file name.

It doesn't work for me. If I search for "abilene.zip", it gives not found. But the scenery file for Abilene regional is really called that way. Am I doing something wrong here?

As far as I can see, there is no way to search a file by it's file name. I do hope there are plans to bring this functionality back.

I run a website with links to freeware sceneries, many of them linking to flightsim.com. Unfortunately they are all broken now as they use the file names in the links.  So I hope the functionality to search by file name will come back.
