bjratchf Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 I must have "clicked" through the dialogue that asks where you want to backup default textures (during ORBX global install, FTX Trees). Does anyone know where the default orbx backup folder is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjratchf Posted December 31, 2018 Author Share Posted December 31, 2018 It's also possible that the dialogue doesn't popup anymore? (just tried to see if it would appear with FTX trees..) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 Hi There is no default backup folder, only the folder you choose. What are you trying to accomplish? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly- I "clicked through" whatever dialogues popped up about backups and don't know where orbx saved its backups. Is there a default location where if you install and don't specify a folder, it puts the backup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjratchf Posted December 31, 2018 Author Share Posted December 31, 2018 It looks like it doesn't even ask anymore on a fresh install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted December 31, 2018 Share Posted December 31, 2018 What are you trying to accomplish? There is no default backup folder, I don't think you need to worry about it....I just uninstalled the TreesHD from my P3Dv3 and fired up the sim and had trees that I presume are the defaults, I then reinstalled the TreesHD and was not presented with a choice to backup textures....unlike FSX, P3D will rebuild its own default textures and do not require a backup.

bjratchf Posted December 31, 2018 Author Share Posted December 31, 2018 Ok cool. This is something new: When I installed FTX Global World in the past, it would present me with a popup to select a directory to backup textures- I only have a 500GB SSD, so I put all backups on a remote drive to conserve space. The backup would usually be 1-2GB. I was a little concerned when I did my reformat for P3D4.4 and went to reinstall the FTX Global World Textures, that it didn't give me this option- just hoping that its not lurking around my C drive taking up space!

bjratchf Posted December 31, 2018 Author Share Posted December 31, 2018 So just to confirm @John Venema - no more backup is needed on FTX Trees and FTX Global Base? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
