Hi Robert, welcome to the forums
Sorry, but no, FSX addons are not at all compatible with MSFS.

Hi Bradley
I am betting that if you disable Vector the buildings will no longer be in the water.
Looks like a classic case of the default coast lines not being correct, so Vector corrects them but is not able to move the buildings.
So yes a bug with the default scenery that maybe you could correct using ADE?

Simple question is, can I just copy and paste everything thats in the library on the C drive into the new library, then delete the library that's on the C drive afterwards? And if so, is there anything else I also need to do?
Hi Rory
Yes you can do this, just go to settings/help and run the sync simulator function after you get the files copied over to the new location.

Thanks
And yes, usually when these FT products were installed into the simulator root folder, they created two entries in the scenery library, one of them was the LC (land class) component, and all we had to do was uncheck/deactivate it in the scenery library to make it compatible with other land class products such as Open LC Europe.

Hi
Have you removed the Asobo version of LOWI?
-
Hi
Maybe a shot in the dark, but maybe try a verify files of Open LC Europe, and Global base.

Hi
Yes, It would definitely be worth another test flight.

Thanks Doug, I found Objectflow, but it is not possible to install it. It requires installation outside P3D, but due to problem, I had to install Orbx products within simulator.
Is it so necessary ?
Yes, Objectflow is mandatory for most Orbx products to work correctly.
You already have an external library created at C:\Users\User\Orbx Library\p3dv5, and it will install there, although it is highly recommended to create a new library that is not in the "Users" file structure. It is very common for it not to work within the "Users" file structure because of Windows permissions issues.
Objectflow is always required to be install outside of the simulator, and it is perfectly normal to have everything else installed within the simulator.

Hi
1. The list in the Insertion Point tool is not meant to duplicate the scenery library, so no need to worry about that.
2.To find Orbx Objectflow, open Orbx Central and click on "My Products", then scroll down to near the bottom of the list.
3. No, nothing else to do, and I see the green successfully adjusted green banner, so all is good.
4. Yes, you have set the insertion point correctly.

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

Presumably My Products lists only those that are compatible with P3D5?
Hi Don, yes this is correct.
5 hours ago, donbrindles said:My Products P3D5 does show Other/Global/Airport Pack...so this is presumably ok for P3D5?
This is also correct.
In regards to the download speeds, sometimes if you restart Orbx Central it will move faster. It will also resume from where it left off even if you restart your PC, but unfortunately there is nothing we can do about your download speeds, that would be controlled by your ISP.

Hi Steve
Thanks, and I do have the same issue.
So, I have asked the developer to have a look at this topic.

Hi, welcome to the forums
Please have a read of the below topic. It appears that the MS Marketplace version is having these issues, as the product installed via Orbx Central does not.

My Pleasure.

Hi
In that case, I would just try deleting the content.xml, and the .dat files in the Scenery Indexes folder, and also deleting and turning off the rolling cache.
Not sure if others are having the same issue with trees in the wrong spots, but I do know that when ESMS is installed via Orbx Central there is no tree issues.

Hi
So sorry, but we do not know what the coming soon period is going to be. but it is still coming.

Hi Steve
My suggestion is a first step basic troubleshooting exercise that can be used for any issue with this simulator.
Also, maybe have a look at the below video...I wonder if it could be related to a setting phenomena?

Hi
I found that depending on the angle that is being viewed from outside the cockpit, if I keep the view low and closer to the ground all is good. As soon as I try to look at the aircraft from the top it goes under ground. But from inside the cockpit I can drive the aircraft into the rock and it doesn't matter the view angle from inside.

Hi
Please first rename your Community folder to CommunityX.
Then create a new Community folder and install just this one product.
Then try again.
You could also try deleting the content.xml, and the .dat files in the Scenery Indexes folder, and also deleting and turning off the rolling cache.

Hi Rory
I think the word "library" gets confused with a few different meanings.
The "Orbx Libraries" are a free product that needs to be installed for the other Orbx products to work, so yes you can install these first to the new library/folder that you can create in a location of your choosing.
The "Libraries" page in Orbx Central is where you can create new library/folder locations...this has nothing to do with the "Orbx Libraries" product.
Elevation issues P3DV5.2

Hi
I see the same thing at default KSAT. This is a normal common limitation of the default simulator. At many airports, the terrain is not flat and the runway elevation is different by several feet from one end to the other and the simulator is not able to compensate, so it renders only a completely flat airport surface that does not match the changing elevation of the terrain.
