Custom Rewards

[Pultacatt]

Was wondering if some one may be able to help.

I installed Paul Donnelly's (BASys) Country Flag rewards packs as per the printed instructions but I have failed to achieve any flag rewards despite flying to numerous countries etc. Is there something I have missed in the setup / installation? Do I need to activate or include something in the FSX CFG perhaps?

"If installing a COUNTRYNAME_DEFAULT_MASTER reward file,
and you'd previousy installed the matching
COUNTRYNAME_DEFAULT_BASIC and/or COUNTRYNAME_DEFAULT_SUPPLEMENTAL file(s).
Please ensure you remove those before launching FS."

Now this part of the Instructions did confuse me and as I couldnt find any files resembling those listed so I ignored, is this a major part of the installation process and have I failed to install properly?

If anyone can shed some light and point me in the right direction I would be very grateful.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Folks

Pultacatt -
Unlikely you've missed anything whilst installing.

Rather it looks like you've misunderstood
the principle behind acquiring these rewards.



It's not as simple as just flying to a country.

You have do a little work to earn them. :d



The STARTER PACKs give worldwide coverage,
in the vast majority,
as a BASIC reward for each country -

i.e.
1 postcard reward
for landing at every airport in that country.



For certain countries having lots of airports,
I've released detailed MASTER rewards -

i.e.
1 postcard reward
for landing at every airport in a province/state/region of that country.

Plus a country reward,
for acquiring all that country's province/state/region rewards.

etc, etc.
For details, see the country's matching *_REWARD_CONTENTS.txt



The instruction you cite -
relates to applying the UPDATES - PACKs.
When you install a country's MASTER reward,
you should remove that country's BASIC reward.



Here's a list of the MASTER rewards
released as part of the UPDATES - PACKs -

PACK 1 -
- Belgium (16 rewards)
- Finland (11 rewards)
- France (33 rewards)
- Germany (23 rewards)
- Netherlands (19 rewards)
- Netherlands Antilles (6 rewards)
- Sweden (28 rewards)

PACK 2 -
- Japan, (46 rewards)
- New Zealand, (24 rewards)
- Poland, (23 rewards)
- South Africa, (16 rewards)

PACK 3 -
- Chile, (17 rewards)
- India, (38 rewards)
- Italy, (24 rewards)
- Madagascar, (8 rewards)

i.e.
Remove the matching BASIC reward for the above countries.



Currently there are no SUPPLEMENTAL rewards.



To check that your installed rewards are working,
have a look at the quick-hit listing of easy to acquire rewards.



For anyone interested in aquiring these default airport landings rewards,
the Visit Series - Countries - COLLECTIONS are downloadable from -
FS-Shipyards - FS Rewards - 'Visit Series - Country'
