Downloading Third Party Addons & Mods


Recommended Posts

Hi I have downloaded a few addons etc from flightsim .to As good as some are sometimes the names are not very clear once unzipped which makes it quiet hard to keep a check on does anyone know if it's posible to rename the mods /addons when in community folder I know you can can if you open save as when downloading ,does anyone else have trouble with the names of downloads. thanks

I know ther are programs /apps for organising community folder but i prefer not to use them.

Kind regards

Yes you can rename the mod folder without causing any damage.

I hear what you say, but addons have a habit of multiplying - i've got over 300GB now! - and letting them fill up your Community Folder results in slower loading times. Also it's recommended you empty the C/F when upgrades etc occur and a good addons manager will nake things so much easier.

 

I use MSFS Addons Manager which was one of the first. It's simple and straightforward, you just need to organise your addons library a little first. Renaming addons makes it even easier to use. You won't regret it I assure you.
