PaulSB Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 My FSX has become too unstable and I need to do a complete reinstall; groan! I suspect that the problem may have been caused by a couple of add-on aircraft. I have got lots of scenery; rather than having to reinstall each one, along with any updates, is there any way that I can copy the whole ORBX file and reinstall it all together? Thanks.

antonvs Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 Hi Wolter, I am planning a complete new install soon when I get a new PC so I came to this post while searching for current instructions as it is now 4-5 years since I started from scratch. With your instructions above I note that you have not included EU, would I be correct in quessing that just before FTXG would be OK. Can you confirm please. And where should FTX Central be set during a clean install (or is that per each scenery instructions)? Cheers Anton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Recommend pinning it to the top of the forum as "FSX & ORBX install order" and updating as additional products (Vector and openLC) are released. (I know there is a Orbx Region install order thread in the FAQ, but it doesn't include Global.) Regards, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
