+===== Using Orbx Scenery =====
+http://www.orbxdirect.com
+Orbx uses a "Orbx Central" app to download scenery and place it where it thinks it should be. Since I want to have one copy of the scenery, but use from multiple X-Plane instances, need to implement "Libraries." But this is just a directory where the scenery is installed, and a Shortcut is placed in the X-Plane Custom Scenery directory to point at it. Note that the Library folder directory structure is a little different than X-Plane's, so point to the right places.
+As of this writing, Orbx doesn't support very well the notion of changing where Orbx thinks the X-Plane directory is located. Helpful link: https://orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/177698-multiple-x-plane-installations/
+Using Orbx with xOrganizer: xOrganizer controls which scenery is loaded by manipulating the ini file. Since the Orbx scenery looks like all of the rest (if installed directly here, or via symbolic link (shortcut), this works.
