Santiago_1998 Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Hello, I'm having problems with the FTX ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda scenary, for some reason the airport buildings are missing as you can see in the image below. What can I do to solve this problem? I'm using the FSX: Steam Edition and I have FTX Global Base Pack, FTX Global Vector and FTX Global openLC Europe installed. I have also the latest Orbx Libraries.

Nick Cooper Posted February 9, 2016 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Hello and welcome to the forums. Here is a resolved topic on the same subject which should help you with your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santiago_1998 Posted February 9, 2016 Author Share Posted February 9, 2016 Thanks, but I can't understand how the problem was solved in the reference that you told me, I've tried the same steps without success. I also have missing buildings problems with the freeware FTX LIDA Asiago Airport as you can see in the image below, maybe there is a correlation with the missing building problems in the FTX ESSA Stockholm-Arlanda scenary. What else could I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvain Delepierre Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Hi, This problem is due to your objectflow module not being installed/active. Can you try this: 1. Make sure FSX is not running. 2. Open your windows explorer and go to your main FSX folder. Open ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_ORBXLIBS\Scenery\ModuleInstaller.exe (make sure you run it as administrator). 3. Restart your sim. you should be prompted to allow FSX to use the new module, click Yes and add it to the trusted list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santiago_1998 Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 Hello, I followed your instructions, however, when I restarted the sim I wasn't prompted to allow FSX to use the new module, nothing happened and the buildings are still missing.

Philip Schall Posted February 10, 2016 Share Posted February 10, 2016 Hi, can you confirm you only have FSX SE installed, and not 'old' FSX as well? If that is the case, refer to this thread to find instructions on how to add the Objectflow module to your simulator: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santiago_1998 Posted February 10, 2016 Author Share Posted February 10, 2016 Hello, I only have the FSX: Steam Edition installed, I followed the instructions in the reference you told me, I checked the dll.xml entry for the objectflow.dll at the FSX folder, and I had already this: <Launch.Addon> <Name>ObjectFlow.dll</Name> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad> <Path>C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_ORBXLIBS\Scenery\ObjectFlow.dll</Path> </Launch.Addon> I also checked the dll.xml entry for the objectflow.dll at the FSX-SE folder, and I had the same thing: <Launch.Addon> <Name>ObjectFlow.dll</Name> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad> <Path>C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_ORBXLIBS\Scenery\ObjectFlow.dll</Path> </Launch.Addon> But I still have the missing buildings problems.

Philip Schall Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Hi, could you see if it is possible for you to update the objectflow as per this thread: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santiago_1998 Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 Hi, I tried the Offline updater and It says that "All ObjectFlow modules are up to date. No update needed." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Schall Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Check whether an Objectflow.dll actually exists in this path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_ORBXLIBS\Scenery\ObjectFlow.dll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santiago_1998 Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 Yes, ObjectFlow.dll exists in this path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylvain Delepierre Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 You could try to rebuild your fsx.cfg file. Go to C:\Users\{YourUserName}\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX Rename your fsx.cfg to fsx.cfg.off (so you can restore it if it does not work). Launch FSX, it will build a new cfg file Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sylvain Delepierre Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Hi Santiago, An issue has been detected in the latest libraries. See here for instructions : I hope it will work this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Manhart Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 It looks like the solution has been reached here, but I would like to add an additional bit of information for Santiago_1998: I notice the path to your objectflow.dll is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_ORBXLIBS\Scenery\ObjectFlow.dll", meaning that your simulator is installed into the protected Program Files directory. Because of where your sim is installed, it will be extremely important for your simulator to run correctly, that: You are using an Administrator account while using FSX UAC is disabled Everything that you install for your simulator is done using the right-click, "Run As Administrator". Windows Vista and above treat the \Program Files\ and \Program Files(x86)\ directories as protected areas. It has been recommended for years that FSX/P3D/etc. be installed outside of the Program Files directory to mitigate issues caused by Windows UAC. The next time you reinstall FSX, I highly recommend you install it somewhere else besides the Program Files directory. Since Steam automatically installs to the Steam folder, you must tell it to install somewhere else by setting up an additional Steam directory from within Steam. In order to do this, just go into your Steam->Settings->Downloads->Steam Library Folders->Add Library Folder, type in where you want your new Steam folder (as you can see in my screenshot, I have a D:\SteamLibrary\ folder in additional to the main Steam folder on E:\, then click Add New Folder. When you install anything in Steam from now on, it will ask which Steam directory you want to install the program into. Easy as pie! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Santiago_1998 Posted February 15, 2016 Author Share Posted February 15, 2016 Hi, I did a complete reinstall of FSX: Steam Edition outside of the Program Files directory and then I reinstalled all my Orbx addons, now the buildings are appearing and everything is working correctly. Thanks a lot for all the answers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
