There are several options to installing. You can install them all and replace all the 15 moon texture with the content of the "moon_strange" folder, or you can replace only a few select moons.

  • Back up your FSX moon files in a back-up folder. These are found in the FSX "Texture" folder.
  • copy and paste the contents of the "moon_strange" into the FSX Texture folder, OR, whichever specific moon you would like. If you want the Death Star, copy-n-paste "moon12.bmp" into the FSX texture folder. All the other moons will remain default.

That's all there is to it. To view the various "moons", grab a copy of a almanac or a good calendar and set the "Time and Season" to the appropriate time and date given by the almanac or calendar.

The archive moon_str.zip has 21 files and directories contained within it.
