Alright, I downloaded all the required files and such, easily installed everything.. I LOVED it!! I fell in love with everything!

But now, I want to revert back to the old game, the original FS2... I didn't back up my \data folder, and now I am lost forever.. Could someone provide the normal files for me? Puh-leeasse?

I do not believe that it can be removed without removing the entirely game. The only way that I know of is to make a back-up of the \Data directory and copy that back over the install when you want to go back. But, you haven't done that so all I can suggest is that you uninstall the whole game and reinstall it.
If you have a pilot that you want to keep, there should be a directory called "Single" somewhere in main directory. If you make a copy of that BEFORE you delete the game then after you have reinstalled it you can copy the copy of the "Single" directory over the new install.

Hope that makes sense. I'm sure others will reiterate if it doesn't.

Or an even easier way, simply delete everything except /players/ subfolder in your /data/ folder. If you didn't have any mods installed before TBP, normal FS2 will work fine.

I think we have to add an info in the next releases, that before you install TBP, just rename your Data folder to fs2-data or whatever...

Your player file is probably lost....im guessing. If you used the same player.

If you created a different pilot, then my suggestion is to rename or move all of the folders except /player and go about your business. /data does not actually contain anything except player and config files by default.

We override files in the .VP files which is where the game data is.
