Installation Guide for Burning Sands '83

[TurtleHawk]

I seem to be making an error when installing. I am not sure which SFP1 patch to use: v5.15.06 or v08.30.06?

 

Step by step:

1.Fresh SFP1

2.Patch to v5.15.06 or v08.30.06 ?

3.BS '83

4.Weapons Pack

5.BS '83 upgrade

6.Go Fly!

 

I'm so confused

 

Thanks,

Try installing the weapons pack last.

OK, just found this on another forum. Straight from the author of BS 83.

 

 

 

Here is how you should install:

 

Start with a fresh install of SFP1 patched to SP4 with latest weapons pack. Now extract the contents of the BS 1983 zip to a temp folder and copy everything except the 'Objects' folder to you new install. Then copy the 'Aircraft' folder from inside of the 'Objects' of the BS 1983 zip to the 'Aircraft' folder of your new install. Then install the BS 1983 SP4 Update and you should be all set.

Thanks Tailspin,

 

I saw that. I think the key question for me is about the SFP1 patch.

When in doubt, just follow the directions

I'll give it a try with SP4, ignoring the later patch, and see if that works.
