i downloaded my add on as a zipped file to my pc. now i cant figure out how to install it so i can use it in my game can anyone help
 
ah f4u 1 corsair im new to all of this ive always just played off line i just started exploring the online stuff this morning and am pretty excited about flying this corsair as its always been my fav wwII plane and i hit the save button on the download prompt now im having trouble figuring out how to get it to show up in my game that should explain my current dilema i hope
 
I'm purty sure it comes in an installer. checkin to be sure now.

If it does, just click on the installer an it will do everything for ya.
 
thank you if not ill just purchase it again and now mess it up next time lol i rally appreciate the help
 
Hang on!! I'm still checkin on it. Either way (zip or installer) you have to have a password. You should recieve an email from Ickie with it soon.
 
i got a pswd from ickie with the origional e mail but now that ive down loaded it to my pc, when i open the folders all i see is a whole lot of little files that open with wordpad and word and inside those is a lot of pc code i dont understand lol thank you for all your help i really do appreciate it
 
The AH Corsairs aren't packed in an installer EXE. The download is just a ZIP archive with the aircraft folders inside. These folders will need to be placed in the game manually.

I am guessing that you have the CFS3 version? If so, follow these instructions...
(The steps should be the same for the FS9 version too.)

Once you've downloaded the ZIP and received the password email from Ickie, you can unzip the archive into a temporary folder. You should find two folders in there, one is HELP and the other is AIRCRAFT. Right-click on the AIRCRAFT folder and choose "copy". Then navigate to your main CFS3 folder and right-click/"paste" that AIRCRAFT folder into your main CFS3 folder. This should place the plane into the proper place.

Let us know if it works out for ya.
 
lol ok i tryed that it didnt work i re purchased it and downloaded it directly into my main cfs3 folder and unzipped it there and nothing happens. when i go into my game and go to quick combat and look for the corsair i cant find it anywhere im sure it would be a beautiful plane to fly in free flight lol
