Which folders do I point the database to when I add scenery to the database? How specific does the entry need to be? Can I point the database build tool to a folder with subfolders that contain my add-on scenery? I'm running v4.1.4.272 with FSX acceleration.
Thanks in advance,

Re: How to add add-on scenery to database
If your scenery has been added to FSX, Plan-G will find it when you build the database. You only need to tell it specifically if the scenery is NOT active in FSX. That can happen if sceneries can't be installed together at the same time (because of land class conflicts for example). In those situations, add the folder containing the "absent" scenery to the AdditionalSceneryLocations list, and that'll make sure Plan-G includes it.
This was very common at one time with Orbx Regions scenery, for example.
You don't need to remove entries from the list if you later install them in FSX - Plan-G will cope with that.
