Two FS9

Post by Javier Tapia »

Hi,
I currently have 2 FS9 installs on my pc, one i keep to fly contemporary and a retro one (1960 thanks to calclasics package) but I just realise that for some reason the Retro install reads the AFD files from the normal install, in other words, i get to see all the MAIW waypoints, etc. but i can't use them, since it take my aircraft to somewhere very dark on the north pole.

Is there a way for this airports and waypoints no to show? Ohh and addon scenry and AFDs on the retro FS work good, it's the addon AFDs from the normal install that show up

Thanks!

I believe you need to change the config files. I'd suggest you do a Google search as there have been articles on how to run two installations of FS9 and what steps you need to take to separate the two.

Good luck :)

Javia,

On CalClassics there is a few threads on there to instruct you, I have two installs like you but I make sure I keep the scenery seperate from each other, i.e the older classic scenery goes in the Classic install scenery folder and the modern in the original install scenery folder, this applies to aircraft as well etc.
