Need help with H-135 installation

ANAG777 · May 11th 2021

Hi Guys, I have Microsoft Flight Sim bought on Steam and I couldn't find where to install unzipped H-135 helicopter file. The path given on description does not exist on my computer, goes only to Packages or Flight Simulator. I have tried other folders like Community folder in Microsoft Flight Simulator on Steam, nothing works for me, please help!

RE: Uploading to Flightsim.to

Soit tu utilises un mod manager, plusieurs sont disponible ici, soit tu cherches manuellement le dossier community et tu jetes le dossier décompressé dedans ( attention, ce doit être le dossier de fichier, celui ou tu trouves les fichiers .json et non celui ou tu as le dossier de l'appareil / scène ou livrée que tu veux installer). Pour trouver facilement ce dernier : youtube.com/watch?v=3f_lujfxKR4

Either you use a mod manager, several are available here, or you manually look for the community…

This solution might assist you in finding out where your community folder is located:

Copied from this article (was for a different addon, but the instructions remain appropritate): https://steamcommunity.com/app…ns/8/2949250308624358419/

Thanks, it worked. My path was; D: steamlibrary/community, that was the only folder I did not try

I also need help on installation,

My FS 2020 was bought via MS Store

I have followed path to Community and unpackaged using WinRarr

Nothing appears in MS FS 2020, I have looked in Hanger, content manager even reinstalled FS

Can anyone help please.

You should ensure that the folder containing the actual files is directly in the Community folder rather than being in a subfolder.

If you download from here, most of the time if you unzip, it will be a folder, with another folder inside it that contains the files, which MSFS doesn't read.

So it should be /Community/<addon folder>/<addon files and folders>, where if you directly unzip it there you might get /Community/<folder>/<addon folder>/<addon files and folders>, and then it won't work.

Hi SkyyStorm

Thank you for your help,

I actually found 2 pathways and 2 community folders??

It was user name that made the difference, all sorted now, cant stay and chat have a Helicopter to fly!

Hi, I'm having issues installing the EC135mod. The files have been downloaded and extracted to: C:\Users\rcaia\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\Community\hpg-airbus-h135

But the game does not recognize the helicopter. The game is installed from Microsoft and updated to World Update V.

Am I missing something? Could you give me assist on that?

Thanx!

I noticed a padlock pinned to the community file. Would that be related to this issue?

As per above instructions a few posts up, perhaps check whether another location was added to the community folder, and see if that might be the actual correct location.
