Installation
2.1
Installing the files
Remove or deactivate any other scenery covering Norway,
if you have any. The default fsw95/98-scenery has only
one/two airport(s) with navaids/runway in this area:
Bergen-Flesland and Oslo Fornebu, but the CD-rom scenery
has inaccurate coastlines, peculiar green sloping hills
and synthetic mountains popping up everywhere. We
therefore recommend that you deactivate the default
cd-rom Europe scenery when entering Norwegian territory.
See below (2.2) how to do this. You'll probably improve
your frame-rate too, by doing this,
DO NOT MIX THESE FILES WITH OLDER
VERSIONS OF THE SCENERY, MAKE A "CLEAN"
INSTALLATION !
Make folders outside the FS-folder system:
D:\FLTADDON\NORWAY\ (if D:\ is the letter of your hard
drive). Make subfolders:
D:\FLTADDON\NORWAY\NORWDOC
(for the documentation files)
D:\FLTADDON\NORWAY\SCENERY
(for the scenery files)
D:\FLTADDON\NORWAY\TEXTURE (for the texture files)

DO
NOT PUT THE SCENERY UNDER THE MAIN DEFAULT SCENERY FOLDER
IN FS5.1/FS6/FSW98 !
The Norway98 Scenery contains the
following zip files:
1.NORW98BG.ZIP: scenery-files extract
them into the NORWAY\SCENERY folder
2.NORW98TX.ZIP/:
texture-files,
extract them into the NORWAY\TEXTURE folder
IMPORTANT:
To
get nordic light and wintertexture on the ground we have
enclosed the files: Crops.r8, Cropsf.r8, Cropss.r8,
Cropsw.r8. First, find the original files with the same
name in your D:\FLTSIM98\TEXTURE (main-directory) and
make back-ups or rename them: crops?.old.
THEN COPY OUR CROPS-FILES TO YOUR
MAIN TEXTURE-DIRECTORY:
D:\FLTSIM98\TEXTURE:
3.NORW98CR.ZIP: CROPS.R8 texture-files
(as pointed out above) extract them into the
FLTSIM98\TEXTURE folder
4.NORW98DO.ZIP: documentation in
HTML-format, use your WEB-browser and open the
start.htm file
Make the scenery active through the Scenery Library menu
in the FS5.1/FSw95/FSw98-program, (see below 2.3). Thats
all there is to it.
