CRJ_simpilot Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Are the add-ons added to the scenery.cfg or simply placed in the add-ons scenery folder? You can search for a file in those zips with Everything.exe and it will lead to its path. https://www.voidtools.com/downloads/ OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk?

leuen Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 (edited) You can search for a file in those zips with Everything.exe and it will lead to its path. Tht's indeed a very useful tool. But you should know what you have to search for. And that's Nick's problem. Anyway, the simplest way is do run every time excecutable files into a temporary folder. In doing so you know what and where you should add files and folders. And that's not limited to just some few addons available here and elsewhere ...

tiger1962 Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 (edited) I think Nick is saying that he's installed the USS Midway scenery OK, he just can't find the ship's location in the sim. This scenery is part of the Battle of Midway sceneries for FS2004, so the ship will be somewhere in the Midway or Mariana Island area.

CRJ_simpilot Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Tht's indeed a very useful tool. But you should know what you have to search for. No, it's not a problem. You extract the zip files, chose a file's name and search for that file name in Everything.exe. It will show you two possible locations of that file. One in the extracted location you just extracted and the other where you installed the scenery to. OOM errors? Read this. What the squawk? An awesome weather website with oodles of Info. and options.

CRJ_simpilot Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 If you don't know where Midway is, look here and note its ICAO. Click image for larger. I'd download the files and check to see where it's all at, but I don't have an active subscription here right now allowing me a faster download and both files are like 50 MB a piece. OOM errors?

caphavoc Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 (edited) If this question is about the location of the carriers, from the Readme: "There is it in the vicinity of N31*40.00' W176*04.00' of an offing of Midway Islands."
