| Flights and
Courses Lake Circuit Flight This 35nm speed task takes you around the lake at SOAR Ranch. Requires the SOAR Ranch and Ridge Lift 1 files listed above. By Chris Gordan. |
| NOTE: The SOAR File system used in the self installers
makes it easy to swap out scenery in just a few clicks. I find it best
to place the installers themselves (.exe) in my Archive folder immediately
after downloading and unzipping. I can then delete anything in any of
the active scenery folders, run the installer(s) and the flight is ready
to go...even the GPS is programmed for the task if one is included. By
using the active scenery folders as "temporary locations", and
keeping the scenery files/installers organised in the Archive folder,
you can install or restore any flight almost instantly, and be assured
that there are no conflicts, or redundant thermal scenery. You can also
update any airfields instantly just by running the newest installer.*note* an UNINSTALLER is created with every install (control
panel...ADD/REMOVE Programs), but you do not need to run them for updates
since they will automatically overwrite the older files. |
