Add Ons 1-5 and RealFlight G4

[phrank]

Usually guys that have problems installing the add ons have not followed the instructions correctly or have improvised a step or two (well documented in these forums)
To help the virtual community help you best, state more specific facts about your gear.
Which version of windows do you have?
32-bit or 64-bit? (the program files directory is different for each.)
That should be plenty of clues to help you along.
Good Luck.

The steps I posted for you are the step by step instructions that you asked for. If you can't get your AddOns to show, it's because you are placing the extracted files in the wrong directory. That's the only reason I've ever seen causing the AddOns not to show up. There is no other way for anyone to tell you how to properly do it. Post a screenshot showing the folder that you put the files in.

O.K. Jeff, I'll investigate that.

The add-ons 1 to 5 that I can download for free (I have RF g4.5) from RF website are the Expansion pack 1 to 5?
Thanks!

The Add-ons are different to expansion packs.

Hi,

I had to reload all my programs due to a problem. It has been so long since I have done a download from the swap pages, I simply forget how I get it into my plane library, the default lib.
Thanks for any help, or where to look

3.Extract the .zip file's contents to "C:\Program Files\RealFlightG4\Data" or "C:\Program Files\RealFlightG5\Data" (assuming you installed in the default location).
Now run RealFlight G4, G4.5 or G5 and the Add-Ons content will be available in the aircraft and airport selection dialogs.

Enjoy!

I installed add-ons 1&2 and couldn't find the planes either, so thank you for this post. Worked great for windows 8! Add-on's 3, 4, 5 installed normally.

All 5 AddOns install exactly the same way.
