teecee Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 It takes me an age to reinstall Prepar3d v3.4 and I am having a problem adding Prepar3d freeware scenery.. what is the correct way to install the freeware please? I started to DL all the freeware and as I have a very slow internet connection I left the downloading overnight.. This morning I have whole load of _full*.zip folders but no Idea as to their use. Help please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Hi Terry All of those .zip folders will be of no use to you unless you know which one belongs to which product....Why not just do it the easy way by using FTXC3 and clicking on the product one at a time and click on install?? The freeware is mostly all smaller files and should be fairly quick. Cheers Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teecee Posted July 22, 2018 Author Share Posted July 22, 2018 That was how I intended to install them and is how I have installed then in the past that was not an option with the current version of Prepar3d v3.4.. It's not beyond the realms of possibility that I am doing something wrong though, but the freeware simply does not give me an option. Terry.

Doug Sawatzky Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 The freeware installs the same way as the payware....just add it to your account from the Orbx Direct web page, then open FTXC3 and install it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teecee Posted July 22, 2018 Author Share Posted July 22, 2018 It appears that FTX Central is not working.. I can only activate the manual install.. even though I am showing the central as version 3.2.5.9. Would it help to reinstall central again?

Doug Sawatzky Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Yes, you can reinstall FTX Central as per Nick's below instructions....and you will still need FTX Central to do manual installs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teecee Posted July 23, 2018 Author Share Posted July 23, 2018 Yesterday I posted asking for help installing freeware on prepar3d v3 and got a couple of replies that did not help but when I went back to the thread I found it closed, so I will try again. When I try to DL all the freeware after a system crash I can only DL the zips and can not use the installers as usual.. I have all the compressed files downloaded and wanted to know how to install them, as I know it is possible to do so.. Thanks .Teecee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teecee Posted July 27, 2018 Author Share Posted July 27, 2018 I have been fiddling around for a few days now trying to install Orbx freeware, but to no avail. It seems that Central is the problem so I would like to uninstall it completely and do a fresh install..Any pointer please. Teecee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
