mvalotta,

Europe is addressed here in the FAQ:  http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/31552-installation-instructions-for-orbx-regions/

It also mentions a link to airport installation instructions, that isn't there yet.  No mention of Global or the Iceland/Baltic demos either.

I'd install Global after all the Regions & Airports.  Remember to install the latest Orbx Libraries LAST.  You can find them and all the patches/updates on the support page, here: http://www.fullterrain.com/support.html

 

I agree that a complete installation instructions guide would be very handy.  Regions, Airports, HolgerMesh, Patches, Global, Vector, openLC, Libraries, Demos, free region & Global airports, and what FTX Central setting to use for each (Default/Global/Region).

 

Cheers,

Matt

Clean install :

fsX
SP1 + SP2 or Acceleration, make your settings for Controllers, Graphics, etc., etc.
test if all works OK

REX, UTX, FS Genesis, FS Global etc etc + their recommended patches and or updates
test if all works OK

AU regions + all updates and patches
test if all works OK
AU airports + all updates and patches
test if all works OK, possible need for installing latest library files

NA regions + all updates and patches
test if all works OK
NA airports + all updates and patches
test if all works OK, possible need for installing latest library files

NZ regions + all updates and patches
test if all works OK
NZ airports + all updates and patches
test if all works OK, possible need for installing latest library files

EU regions + all updates and patches
test if all works OK
EU airports + all updates and patches
test if all works OK, possible need for installing latest library files

set FTX Central to default
FTX Global, make sure to make a backup copy when prompted by the installer
run the latest library files

that should about cover it imho

Do you need to have PNW installed for everything to work better? A friend of mine had mentioned that.

I'm not an Orbx developer, but I'm pretty sure that each Orbx Region is completely stand-alone.

PNW should have nothing to do with any other region.  It is a great region in itself though and worth buying IMHO.

 

Orbx payware airports do require their applicable Orbx Region to look their best.
