Glacier Bay Version 2 for FS2004 File Names: glbayv2a.zip and glbayv2b.zip Development Team: Holger Sandmann, Rainer Duda, Michael Eder, Scot Fraser, Manfred Herz, Jay Langham, Jon Patch, Larry Silsbee, and Jim Vile Email contact: Holger Sandmann, hsandman@shaw.ca Date of Release: March 2007 Version: 2.00 Please note that the following information is also included in the manual, Glacier_Bay_v2_Manual.pdf. For questions and feedback please visit our support forum at http://forums.fsaddon.eu/viewforum.php?f=10 ____________________________________________________ Prior to Installation: * Glacier Bay v2 is meant to be installed (and uninstalled) with its autoinstaller and configurator panel. If you have concerns regarding the specific file movements please refer to the "GBv2_installation_specs.txt" document. * The Glacier Bay v2 configurator software, essential for using Glacier Bay v2, requires an existing installation of Microsoft's .Net Framework. The autoinstaller will test for its presence on your system. If it doesn't find .Net you will receive a warning message and the option to open the Microsoft webpage with the download link to the .Net package. Install .Net then proceed with the installation of Glacier Bay v2. If you have concerns about the use of the .Net framework please do not install Glacier Bay v2. * If you're currently using Glacier Bay v1 (in its original or the Ultimate Terrain compatible version) you need to completely remove it from your system prior to installing Glacier Bay v2. Please refer to section "Uninstalling Glacier Bay v1" below. * If you are using a third-party add-on terrain mesh that includes the Glacier Bay coverage area please refer to the "Technical Notes, Third party Terrain Mesh" section in the manual. * While the autoinstaller will add the two Glacier Bay scenery library entries most likely you will need to move those entries into their correct positions relative to other addons. Please refer to the description and screenshot in the installation instructions of the manual. ____________________________________________________ Installation process: * Unzip GlBayV2a.zip into a temporary folder and run GlBayV2a.exe. Make sure that the installer points to your main Flight Simulator 9 folder. If it doesn't, browse to its correct location. Please do not direct the installation to any other folder because the configurator won't be able to handle the necessary file movements later on. * Unzip GlBayV2b.zip into a temporary folder and run GlBayV2b.exe. Again, make sure that the installer uses your main FS9 folder. * Once GlBayV2b.exe has completed its tasks it will start the configurator screen. Please read the manual section on the configurator options (p.9-11) and make your choices. * If you're also using Tongass Fjords the Tongass configurator (\FSAddon\Tongass Fjords\TfConfig.exe) will start automatically once you close the Glacier Bay v2 configurator. On the Tongass configurator panel select "Glacier Bay National Park Version 2" and use the browse button to set the path for "Glacier Bay 2 landscape", which should be "Flight Simulator 9\FSAddon\Glacier Bay\Alaska Glacier Bay landscape". Ignore the field for "Glacier Bay 2 landclass" and click "OK" and then "OK" again on the main panel to close the configurator. It is necessary to run the Tongass configurator once every time you've made changes on the Glacier Bay v2 configurator? however, as long as you have Tongass Fjords selected on the Glacier Bay configurator panel the Tongass configurator will get started automatically every time you close the Glacier Bay configurator. After the initial changes to the Tongass configurator listed above you don't need to do anything other than clicking "OK" to close the Tongass configurator (the necessary file movements will happen in the background). * Start FS2004, open the Settings > Scenery Library menu and look for the two Glacier Bay entries, "Alaska Glacier Bay landscape" and "Alaska Glacier Bay scenery". Make sure that "... scenery" is above (lower priority number) the "... landscape" entry and that both are arranged relative to other addons as shown in the manual on page 7. * Shut down FS2004 and start again. You're now ready to enjoy Glacier Bay. Choose from a number of preconfigured flights (Select A Flight > Glacier Bay...) or start at any of the airfields or seaplane bases listed in the Airfields section below. Enjoy! ____________________________________________________ Uninstalling Glacier Bay v1 There are two variants of the first version of Glacier Bay available, one for users of the default landscape and another for users of Ultimate Terrain Canada/Alaska. If you have either of these please follow the uninstallation instructions below. Users of the original version, gl_bay_1.zip and gl_bay_2.zip: * If you are also using Tongass Fjords, run the Tongass configurator (\FSAddon\Tongass Fjords\TfConfig.exe) and deselect the "Glacier Bay National Park Version 1" entry, then close the configurator by clicking OK. Ignore the warning message about Glacier Bay. * Start FS2004 and, in the scenery library menu, remove the entry for "Alaska Glacier Bay scenery and mesh" then shut down FS2004 * Navigate to "\Scenery\Namw\temp hold for gl_bay_1" and move any .bgl file it contains into "\Scenery\Namw\scenery", then delete the empty "temp hold for gl_bay_1" folder Users of the version compatible with Ultimate Terrain Canada/Alaska, ut_bc_hs.zip: * Navigate to "BC enhancements for UT landclass" and delete the following files: LC_011_010_ut_bc_hs.bgl LC_011_011_ut_bc_hs.bgl LC_012_010_ut_bc_hs.bgl LC_012_011_ut_bc_hs.bgl WC_012_011_ut_bc_hs.bgl * Navigate to "BC enhancements for UT landscape" and delete the following files: 2_excl_Juneau_UT.bgl s_Glacier_Bay_UT_5.bgl s_Glacier_Bay_UT_9.bgl s_Gustavus_UT_5.bgl s_Gustavus_UT_9.bgl s_Haines_UT_3.bgl s_Haines_UT_5.bgl s_Haines_UT_9.bgl s_Juneau_UT_3.bgl s_Juneau_UT_5.bgl s_Juneau_UT_9.bgl s_Yakutat_UT_3.bgl s_Yakutat_UT_5.bgl s_Yakutat_UT_9.bgl also, if present: mesh_gl_bay_e_LOD9.bgl mesh_gl_bay_e_LOD10.bgl mesh_gl_bay_w_LOD9.bgl mesh_gl_bay_w_LOD10.bgl ____________________________________________________ End User License Agreement: TRADE MARKS AND AFFILIATION Flight Simulator 2004, A Century of Flight (also known as FS9) is a product of Microsoft® Corporation.
