new hotas training files

[rogueone]

I have downloaded the new HOTAS traing files and extracted them, however I don't where to install them. Missions or traing file? and how to do this.

 

Thanks

Just save them to the mission file inside your install directory.

 

However, if you mean this one: http://files.digitalcombatsimulator.com/en/84730/

 

Then you should not extract anything, it should be a single file called A-10C-Training-HOTAS-Fundamentals.miz , and it should be saved to the missions directory inside your install. Again, do not extract. If you get a zip file you are using Windows Internet Exploder and has it set to rename files for you and this is what is causing issues. Either find a way to make it not do that (I don't know how, unfortunately, I don't use that browser), or rename the file back to it's proper name and proper .miz suffix, or re-download with an other browser.

Move the compressed A-10C-Training-HOTAS-Fundamentals.zip file to the missions folder and re-name the file to A-10C-Training-HOTAS-Fundamentals.miz and the file will work.

thanks for the help. I tried several tmes with my browser (IE) but met with frustration. Used your suggestion and changed to Google Chrome and viola it installed like a charm.

Using IE as well, but had to set to show hidden file extensions under folder options in control panel (win 7 64), so i could alter extension, worked well.

I leave file extensions showing all the time so I know what I am dealing with before hand.
