Hi I don't see anything wrong with your scenery.cfg, except, I also do not see the Orbx Libraries installed.

answered Backup TE Data for Full 5.3 reinstall
Doug Sawatzky replied to bhorv67's topic in PREPAR3D® V5.x Support Forum
Hi Where are your TE areas installed now? I have mine installed on a separate drive in their own library created using Orbx Central, so there would not be an issue if I ever need to format and reinstall everything. -

Thanks By the looks of those, I would say just leave everything as it is. -

Doug Sawatzky replied to Doc_Z's topic in Orbx Central Support Forum
Hi Ya sorry, its actually confusing trying to imagine what is where on your system now without being able to look through it. Probably the best way is for you to please post a copy of your “scenery.cfg” file and the “add-ons.cfg” and the “scenery_add-ons.xml” file found at C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5. Then we can actually see what is where. Please note: Do not open the files and copy and paste the contents, just attach the files. -
answered Orbx Libraries and P3Dv5.3
Doug Sawatzky replied to rio gerard's topic in PREPAR3D® V5.x Support Forum
This would be because all of your Orbx products are installed outside the simulator. The Orbx folder in your simulator root folder may not even be required anymore. The way to test would be to cut and paste it to your desktop for safety and see if everything still works, if so, then you could delete it. -

You would need to keep both the folder in the root sim folder F and the library that is on your G drive. -
resolved FT EHAM V2 and TE NE Insert Point problem
Doug Sawatzky replied to Rob Ainscough's topic in PREPAR3D® V5.x Support Forum
Hi Rob Looks Great! I believe the items grayed out that are the items installed outside the simulator via .xml method do not require to be in any particular order, as the order can't be changed anyway. Also, the list in the Orbx Central drop down menu for insertion point is not meant to duplicate the scenery library list of the sim. I also believe the concept of using the lowest 3rd party entry as a rule of thumb was meant for mostly items that are installed in the scenery.cfg (sim folder). Good to see you have found the correct location for the insertion point, as it seems it is not as straight forward as we would like lol. -

Doug Sawatzky replied to rio gerard's topic in PREPAR3D® V5.x Support Forum
Hi The greyed status means that they are installed outside the simulator root folder via the .xml method. If you navigate to the locations shown in your scenery library (D:\lib_ORBX-P3D\p3dv5\), you will find the folders and their files, this is a folder you have created, and they will show up on the P3D addons list (not the folder). The P3D default addons folder is located at C:\Users\name\documents. This is probably where your FVFR is. -

Doug Sawatzky replied to Doc_Z's topic in Orbx Central Support Forum
I would say it is safe to delete this other folder on your F drive, but maybe just cut and paste it to your desk top and test before deleting it. -

Doug Sawatzky replied to rio gerard's topic in PREPAR3D® V5.x Support Forum
Hi The items that are greyed out are installed to the P3D addons folder, and will not be visible in the P3D v5\Orbx folder. -

Just bought a Honeycomb Throttle for MSFS
Doug Sawatzky replied to Dadtom65's topic in Hardware and Tech Talk
Hi I agree with Kevin and experienced the same with other controls, and it was the auto assist settings taking over. You can also get the HoneyComb profiles from the below link. https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/files/category/126-honeycomb-profiles/ -
Hi As stated above, Orbx does not have access to the other developers product files to be able to provide support. Please contact the developer of the product.

resolved Is Installation stuck?
Doug Sawatzky replied to bk6662's topic in Orbx Central Support Forum
Hi Brian Please see the below topic. The most common cause of these types of issues is a lack of free hard drive space in the appropriate locations. Orbx products are downloaded and unzipped to your C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Temp folder and sometimes need up to 3x their install size before they get installed to the simulator location, then after the install is complete, they are removed from your C:\ drive. You can move the Temp folder to a drive with more space using the option in Orbx Central settings\downloader. -

resolved Missing Aerofly FS2 in Orbx
Doug Sawatzky replied to xor's topic in IPACS Aerofly FS 2 Support Forum
I haven't had AFS2 installed for quite some time now, but when I get home later on today, I will install it and see what happens. Yes, Orbx Central will just look for the registry key of the sim on your PC, so maybe it is being blocked from being read on your system? -

Doug Sawatzky replied to otreblA's topic in PREPAR3D® V5.x Support Forum
When you start the sim, do you get the enable addon message to choose yes or no? Also, maybe try a verify files of the airport, then go to settings/help and run the sync simulator function.
