FSX GOLD EDITION ADD ONS MANUAL
If you did have the original boxed version of FSX installed then certain add-ons that need to write information to files such as FSX.cfg, DLL.cfg and Scenery.cfg (common examples are scenery titles, AI traffic titles, amongst others) then these will not work without manual intervention. To the best of our knowledge, if you did not have the original boxed version of FSX currently installed at the time you installed FSX Steam Edition then all of our add-ons should work (assuming you have the up to date version of FSUIPC installed for FSX:SE, see below for details) without any problems. Q: Will my Just Flight add-ons work in FSX Steam Edition?Ī: In most cases we think at this stage that many of our add-ons will work in the Steam Edition, but we are only able to provide technical support for add-ons which have been sold specifically as being compatible with FSX Steam Edition. Nor will reinstalling the Steam version after removing the boxed version if the boxed version was originally present when first installing Steam. NOTE – uninstalling the boxed version after installing the Steam version will not reset these paths back to the original Microsoft version.
FSX GOLD EDITION ADD ONS INSTALL
Q: Can I install the Steam Edition of FSX and still run my current version of FSX without conflicts between them?Ī: The FSX Steam Edition page on the Steam website includes the following comment: " If you already have MSFSX Gold Edition installed on your PC and are concerned about running the two games alongside each other, you may wish to consider installing FSX: Steam Edition on a separate PC." If you have the original boxed version of FSX installed at the time you install FSX Steam Edition then FSX:SE will create its own separate versions of important files such as FSX.cfg, Dll.cfg etc which can cause installers problems when you are adding third party products. If you need more information about this, please contact Dovetail Games support directly. Our advice at Just Flight is to remove the boxed version of FSX prior to installing as this will give you the maximum amount of backwards compatibility with add-ons that either pre-date FSX Steam Edition, or have not been released with specific Steam Edition compatibility. However a message does appear at the end of the FSX SE installation process advising that it may be a good idea to remove the old version. Q: If I do buy the Steam Edition, do I need to uninstall my current version of FSX and install the FSX Steam Edition?Ī: No. (According to the Steam website: "Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Steam Edition (FSX: Steam Edition) is functionally similar to the boxed version of Microsoft Flight Simulator X (MSFSX Gold Edition).") Q: Is FSX Steam Edition a new version of FSX?Ī: No - it's an updated version with the Multiplayer capability re-instated, but otherwise the Steam Edition is effectively the existing version of FSX available via Steam rather than as a Boxed edition.
