I just dragged a copy of my TerraMesh 13 England & Wales folder from the
LAGO folder to the FS2004 Scenery folder and added it manually to the
library. Worked like a charm. I believe TerraMesh 14 Ireland & Scotland
installs to C:\LAGO rather than $FS_directory$\LAGO but the principle's
the same.
A lot of the installers that come with FS scenery aren't doing anything
cleverer than that; it's just that they're only programmed to look for
the install directory of the latest version of FS available when they
were released. I've copied most of my add-on scenery from FS2002 to
FS2004 including the VisualFlight VFR stuff and all of it has worked
flawlessly.
