                        CZBB (2011) - Readme
                        ********************

CZBB for Microsoft Flight Simulators FS9 and FSX and Lockheed Martin's Prepar3D portrays the Boundary Bay (British Columbia, Canada) Airport (CZBB) - Canada's fifth-busiest airport by number of operations - and surrounding area.  


1.	FEATURES

CZBB features:
* an airport definition (AFCAD) based on high-resolution aerial photos that:
* accurately places all runways and taxiways,
* displays realistic taxiway and apron markings, 
* drive-through parking for all AI,
* more than thirty very detailed buildings - including every significant structure on the airfield - all modeled with GMax and painted with hand-drawn textures,
* accurate taxiway and apron signage, 
* low-FPS-impact, multi-LOD, ground-hugging perimeter fencing (8 high chain link with bent top), and
* custom airfield lighting

2.	 COMPATIBILITY

CZBB is fully compatible (once the necessary compatibility files are configured) with:
* ORBX FTX NA Blue USA Canada Pacific Northwest, 
* Ultimate Terrain Canada/Alaska for FS9 and Ultimate Terrain X - Canada for FSX , and
* Jon Patchs and Holger Sandmanns Vancouver+ for both FS9 and FSX.


3.	INSTALLATION

Automatic Installation - CZBB (2011) includes an installer.  This installer is a Microsoft NET.Framework 3.5 application.  If NET.Framwork is not already installed on your computer, the redistributable can be downloaded from the Microsoft website at no charge. 
 
If you are upgrading from an earlier installation of CZBB, the installer will save and re-load any AI traffic files it finds in the CZBB\scenery folder.

Installation of CZBB (2011) is performed as follows. 

(a)	Unzip the file CZBB_vnn.zip to a temporary older (folders option enabled). DO NOT UNZIP TO THE INSTALLATION FOLDER and DO NOT REMOVE ANY FILES FROM THE TEMPORARY FOLDER.

(b)	Run (double-click on) "CZBB Installer.exe" in the temporary folder.  An installation control dialog will appear.  (Vista users must have and, depending on circumstances, others may require, administrator privileges when running the installer.  If you need, but do not have, administrator privileges, the installer will complain when you attempt to install. To run the installer with administrator privileges, right-click on CZBB Installer.exe, select Run As  and select administrator.)

(c)	Select the installation parameters (details are included in the User Manual) and click Install button.  The installer will ask you to confirm the installation folders and compatibility selections, upon which it will install and configure CZBB (2011) accordingly.  If installation is to a folder containing an earlier version of CZBB, that earlier version will be overwritten. If you retain an earlier version of CZBB by installing CZBB (2011) to another folder, ensure only one of them is enabled at a time in your Scenery Library.

(d)	Should you change your mind about an installation option or wish to change the installation mode, simply select the desired new option(s) and click the Install button again.  When finished, close the dialog.  At your direction (checkbox), all the temporary files will be permanently deleted upon completion.  
 
For those users who choose not to use the installer, a manual installation procedure is detailed in the User Manual.


4. 	SCENERY LIBRARY
Include in your Scenery Library an enabled entryt for the folder CZBB (2011)\CZBB.  

The CZBB Scenery Library entry must be above (higher priority) those for Vancouver+, Ultimate Terrain, ORBX FTX NW or any other scenery that includes terrain, roads and/or shorelines.  If you have other add-ons that affect the CZBB area, their position in the Scenery Library relative to CZBB will depend on what they do.  Please refer their documentation.  In general, unless they are intended to affect CZBB specifically, they should be of lower priority than, i.e., be below, CZBB. 


5.	SUPPORT
CZBB is freeware.  Hence, support will be limited.  Nonetheless, I would like to be made aware of any problems you discover in CZBB and will make reasonable effort to respond.  As well, I welcome your comments suggestions for improvements and, where warranted, your criticisms. 

The website http://members.shaw.ca/CZBB4fs is the primary mechanism for delivering support for CZBB.  Among other things, it documents known problems with the most current release and, where available, provides workarounds and patches.  Please check the site before reporting any problems or suggesting new features.
