I have 175GB of free space, and as advertised the listing says that the original file is 27GB and the total file size is something like 127GB in total, I have deleted as much as humanly possible to get to 175GB of free space but Orbx Central constantly says I don’t have enough space. Please help me....what can I do? If I had known that the file was larger than 127gb I wouldn’t of bought it if I knew I didn’t have enough space! please help!

Alex150 Posted May 16, 2020 Author Share Posted May 16, 2020 So basically I need another drive to install the temp folder on? So, in total how many GB do I need for True Earth South Including the temp file, it doesn’t say anywhere? i just can’t see why 175GB is not enough space for a 127gb file plus a temp folder, will have to buy another SSD. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 The product needs to download, extract, and then install which usually requires up to three times the final install space. After a successful install the temp folder is cleared and the space is restored. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex150 Posted May 16, 2020 Author Share Posted May 16, 2020 So could I use my 175gb free on my main drive for my main installation and say buy a 250gb ssd and point temp folder to new Ssd? Should be enough? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerclaw Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Personally, if I was gonna do that, I’d use the 175Gb as the temp drive, and install the scenery on the new drive. But if you intend to install more TE scenery, get a bigger drive ;-) My Orbx scenery is on 2 500Gb ssd’s. One for TrueEarth, and the other for normal Orbx regions/Airports. I too was surprised at how much space I needed on my C: drive to install TE. I thought I was gonna run out of space. I got lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex150 Posted May 17, 2020 Author Share Posted May 17, 2020 Hi. Is there any documentation to installing the scenery on a different drive? I believe you have to add shortcuts or something?Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
