active Running out of space!!!

My P3D is in my C drive SSD. But ORBX scenery used up nearly all spaces. Is there any method to put the ORBX products in D Drive HDD with the FTX Central? Thanks.

Not a fan of placing the Sim onto the Systen drive, myself. Nor of using Symbolic Links.  Perhaps uninstall and reinstall to your other drive.  Think you will find the effort worthwhile and performance slightly better.

So I need to re-install all addons?...

A symbolic link to an Orbx folder on your D drive will do the job you want.

You will not need to uninstall or re-install anything.

You must decide if you wish to proceed this way.

For his own reasons dogtrack does not like this method.

I have used it without a hitch for years.

I went through this with my C Drive, and moved many of the addons to a drive that had plenty of space (and decent speed) added a link, as Nick says, and bingo!..no more problems once you point the sim to the new folder(s) .Teecee.

PS: Not sure if this will work with the Orbx addons though..But Nick seems to think so..

Yes this works for orbx stuff also, i did so for years. You might just have to pay with slightly longer loading times, grab a coffee!
