My favorite is the PNW. I know it like the back of my hand and enjoy picking out details I've seen on the ground. Besides that Orbx sends me around the world doing testing so there's that.....! Ok, I like it all.

My morning kiss with my wife, my first cuppa, and visiting the Orbx forums. The meaningless topics section has been an endless fountain of fun. Many thanks Roger and all who come by for a "beer".
Happy New Year to all. 
Here's to seeing new projects from Orbx this year. clink

I've been to the Spokane area many times and flown over it a few times. I was shocked myself after only a short look that it looked like Felts. Opened up Google Earth for confirmation. They have a gondola in downtown that goes over the river too, very nice city.

The reason for the season is the best gift I've ever received. 2nd to that would be my Lincoln Logs builder set.

AGE that was excellent, very enjoyable look at McCall Municipal.

If you installed directly to the XP sim itself instead of an outside Library that might explain it? I'll try that myself and see.
EDIT
I uninstalled EHAM from my outside Orbx Library I had set up for XP12 scenery. Checked the sim and the scenery _packs.ini to be sure and made sure no Fly Tampa folders were left behind in the sim.
Installed EHAM to the main XP12 / Custom Scenery folder and took another look in the sim. Looks good here and the new scenery_packs.ini file is an exact duplicate of the one I posted above.
Maybe you have another EHAM installed from 3rd party or as part of a larger addon?
Installed into the main sim:

Thanks much Rob. Will try with your order.
last question: did you change it? As the order I have now is the one defined by the FlyTampa installer
thanks
No, not at all. This was the order I saw after installing via Orbx Central. I did first start the sim and go to EHAM first before checking the scenery packs ini.

Loved the story, happy you shared it.
Merry Christmas to all.

Hi Jocko,
I took a look last night but must not be familiar with an offset lighting approach. Looked at the charts in Navigraph but didn't see this offset mentioned. If you could show me what I'm looking for (describe or on a chart maybe) I'll have another look for you.

Fly Tampa has their own type of support. I'll make a note of this option in Orbx Central basically giving an error message when you click on User Guide and there isn't one available. Here's what my scenery packs ini looks like in total.

Other point. I did not find any user guide????
Thanks!
In Orbx Central on the EHAM page is a link to support at Fly Tampa. https://www.flytampa.org/support.html

EDIT
I just installed EHAM (to an outside Library but that shouldn't make any difference)
My scenery packs ini is different. The order of FlyTampa EHAM's four entries should be (from top to bottom)
SCENERY_PACK Custom Scenery/FlyTampa_Amsterdam_0_airport/
SCENERY_PACK Custom Scenery/FlyTampa_Amsterdam_3_mesh/SCENERY_PACK Custom Scenery/FlyTampa_Amsterdam_1_overlays/
SCENERY_PACK Custom Scenery/FlyTampa_Amsterdam_2_default_overlays/It looks like you have the mesh entry below the overlays. Maybe this will help. I toured the airport and don't see any mesh issues on my setup.

I'd have to say at the bottom of the Trinity River in N California. Was gold mining under a dredge and stayed underwater for almost 7 hours! To this day I recoil at the thought of getting into cold water. Got enough gold to pay my college expenses so that was the good part.

I'll attach my two files for you Michael. I'm not a Dev so don't have extensive knowledge about how to diagnose this in the log.txt.
I'll be away fishing off the coast of San Francisco the next few days but hope you can find the reason it's not loading.

I checked again you you are right, my shot is default. Went back to Orbx Central and did a Verify Files for KPSP, now showing v 1.0.0
Started the sim but still saw the default. Closed the sim and checked the XP12\Custom Scenery\scenery_packs.ini and found the *Global Airports* entry at the top. Cut and moved it to the bottom, saved and restarted XP12 at KPSP.
Looks correct now.
-
In your last shot you mention XP11. Is this the sim you have the issue with? Your last screen looks like my install into XP12. From what I know the *Global Airports* needs to be below any addon airports/sceneries.

Have you tried uninstalling/reinstalling? I just installed KPSP to XP12 and it looks like this to me.
Try moving the Global Airports entry at the top of your scenerypacks.ini to the bottom.
EDIT Looks like I have Global Airports entry above my KPSP so that's probably not the issue.
Happy New Year to all. 
Add-on linker
in General Discussion
Posted
I find the use of Addon Linker be valuable for my testing. I have an outside Library for all Orbx products that is in Addon Linker. With one click I can disable all of the entries and then with one more click activate a single scenery.
Other than that I have any outside addons in folders grouped by regions. Bottom line is that it just makes my life easier! lol
