I have not tried this as I bought the Estonia migration tool some time ago but here is a freeware tool that is available.

Wonder if this is the one that you have to dick around turning registry entries on and off...

Edit: Yup it is, except they have added a friendly interface to do it for you. Makes it easier but don't even bother with the "instruction" video unless you can speak Russian... Apart from that it doesn't work because it can't find certain files despite pointing it to the folders, oh yeah and it erased everything except default airports and NXGN airports in my scenery config...

I'm using a freeware migrationtool (I'm not going to pay for something I can get for free) and it works like a charm. I guess it's just a registry-switcher, but I have installed many addons without any problems (scenery, aircraft and REX)

Well between hours watching a build , only doing a scenery and breaking it down to work , another day is nothing once sorted should get a good , adjusted coast lines and mesh relevant to the scenery working on , a day wait till it takes the two year period ... most simply walk away

I got feed up being dictated about GOOD scenery and how it should sit WITH peoples GOOD seven year old payware scenery, .... I thought , I was approaching this the wrong way, airport build and follow true elevations via the AIP is what we want ... time to mess with the mesh !

Good scenery to me looks good and performs well, but that really has nothing to do with this topic

I pointed out that programme caused major issues. which has NOTHING to do with good scenery, elevation issues, 7 year old payware scenery or anything else you just mentioned dude
