Chania air base scenery help

Post by Joseph29 »

On avsim there is FS9 scenery for Chania air base (LGSA), it was made by Christopher Barba and the file name is lgsa_v2_fs9.zip. After I downloaded it I tried to open up the zip file and I got a error message saying the compressed file is invalid. Does anyone know if I can get this scenery anywhere else? Or maybe there is another scenery for LGSA I can use?

This is a picture of my simple version.

It fits into HSP Greece only after removing a number of files. A few of the objects in the HSP folders have been moved to my own libraries for personal use. The HSP objects will not be part of the folder I am willing to forward.

The grey hangars are mine but have no textures.

Let me know if you would like to get this option.

I tried downloading it in case you had a corruption during download but I received the same message when trying to open the zip.

JohnTenn, thanks but after I made my post about another scenery for LGSA I found hsp_fs9_all_in_one_1_of_2.zip on avsim. It has a bunch of airport in Greece including Chania. I had to delete a lot of files just so I can get the Chania scenery, but I think I got all of correct the files needed.

How did you manage to open that file?

I downloaded this and got the same invalid file when trying to open with Windows. What I did try though was opening with winrar and that was fine. My guess is that either it's a new version that is incompatible with windows or it was packed with an option not compatible with windows.
Try winrar or the freeware portable version of peazip as this opens it as well.

Just wanted to say thanks guys. I got the file open with WinRAR.

And I read the description wrong at avsim. I thought the scenery was a complete new scenery that worked with the HSP Greece scenery. I did not know it was a re-work of the HSP Greece Chania scenery. After I got that all sorted out I installed the scenery and it's a very nice scenery.

Good day

Joeseph I had reply to your email but I didnt see that you posted here also. Glad you short it out.


Regards


PS:One more thing, its on the readme also, the AFCAD isnt AI friendly. If you want it to be, I can do it, you can do it yourself of course if you can.
