New Convert over from FSX

[PilatusTurbo]

I took advice from someone on here and played around a little more with my X-Plane 11 that I had installed but didn't really care for.

WOW. Amazing, once you play with it and stuff. Night flying is a whole new game.

I do have two questions, that I hope you guys can help me with. I installed a bunch of scenery libraries to get a couple freeware sceneries working, and they are running fine now. However, along the path, my taxiway signs got messed up and I can't identify the problem. I've been doing MSFS for years so I'm totally new to this world. Googled already, to no avail.

Other question, is how do I migrate the entire xplane 11 install over to a new bigger SSD? I'm going to Google it when I get home today and try to figure it out, but I figured you guys might already know the easy way. I'm hoping it's not the headache that MS used to make moving anything.

Thanks guys!

I too have fallen "Head over Heels" in love with X-Plane! I can't help you with the Taxi Sign issue. You can probably find the answer at the http://www.x-plane.org/ forums. As to moving it, I do have an answer. Simply copy (Or Cut) and Paste the whole kit and kaboodle to the new drive. Just like MS Flight Sim in the old days.

Yes sir, I can't believe it's that easy. Another nail in the coffin of FSX. if you need to move it, it's not the end of the simulated, er, world. 🤣

I'll have to screenshot and head over to X-Plane forums and ask them, too.

Thanks sir!

I think this addon below is the one I had in mind in my previous reply in your other topic:

As mentioned in the description text, be very careful on how you install it, and where you put it in the scenery_pack.ini.
I have not installed it yet, but it's on my todo-list

I still love FS9 and FSX they brought me to the dance and they were the first real great sims...X-Plane was ugly up until XP10! However XP11 is simply outstanding. Welcome Pilatus Turbo!

Couldn't agree more. They were great in their day. I don't mean FSX is over with prejudice, just that I'm shocked that all these newer and simpler things are in XP 11. I agree on XP being ROUGH for years. Another reason I discounted XP 11 so heavily; don't judge a new book by its prequels' covers.

Daube, my understanding is that, in the scenery pack.ini, the libraries don't matter in terms of their order? It sounds like I'm wrong. I'll have to read up on this.
