Hello people,

In the coming days I'm going to reinstall my PC completely so that I have a cleaned up install of FSX once again.

The enhancements I plan on installing are the following:

- REX
- ORBX all of it (NA, FTXG, Vector)
- Addon sceneries like AS Dillingham, Iwo Jima, AS Niederrhein and some freeware addons like IanP's WWII RAF airfields.

Now here is the question: what install order would you guys recommend?

Thanks a million in advance,

Dumonceau

Here is the guide from Nick (old but still good advice) on FSX installation: http://www.simforums.com/forums/setting-up-fsx-and-how-to-tune-it_topic29041.html

Here is something new from ORBX,a new guide: http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/74345-the-definitive-guide-to-ftx-products-the-go-to-source-of-ftx-information/

Install other addon sceneries first, then FTX stuff and use the FTX Central Insertion point to place any FTX stuff under those other addons. But it really wouldn't matter what order as new "other addons" will always go to the top above any FTX insertion point specified.

REX last, or first shouldn't matter.

Thanks guys! Any other addons that you would recommend like mesh or something?

Thing is, I don't want to "overload" my FSX install...

Thanks again!
