  1. Hi Ken

     

    You could either use the installer of the product to uninstall it.

    Or you could locate it in the Windows Apps list and uninstall it.

    Or you could navigate to the actual folder shown, which is C:\Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\Ecosystem...and delete it.

    Or, simply uncheck\deactivate it in the P3D addons list (not the scenery library list, which is your image above).

  2. Hi, welcome to the forums

     

    Please see the below topic and compare the images against yours.

     

     

    You could also 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, so we can confirm it is installed properly.

     

    Please note: Do not open the files and copy and paste the contents, just attach the files.

     

     

     

     

  3. 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.

    My concern was mainly the fact that the Orbx folder in Prepar3D v5 was almost empty

     

    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.

  5. 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. :)

     

  6. 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.

    There is also an Orbx folder on that drive that contains what is on the F drive along with several other folders that contain empty folder with the exception of a Scripts folder that contains numerous folders with items in them as well as several  files.  There is also a SODE  Data folder with Orbx filers in it and a Troubleshooter folder.

     

    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.
