Larry Hickerson Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Ben I will assume you are talking about Global and LC Europe! Global is a great software to begin with. Just run the EXE as an administrator. It will need the FS #, date and Lic string to execute. With this first step I have found that after awhile you will want a ".txt" file with your Orbx orders listed with their licensing info for installs in the future. But the info can always be found with you purchase order info. The products are self installers once you provide the info. If the program cannot find FSX-SE folder automatically then there is something wrong with your download of SE to your computer. Europe LC is the same.

Ben706 Posted June 29, 2016 Author Share Posted June 29, 2016 I had to put in a new path to get to my steam fsx but it was showing in scenery that I had the orbx global and orbx Europe installed yet the scenery and textures still looked the same as default Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 Have you also downloaded and installed the latest libraries and run FTX Central at least once? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben706 Posted June 29, 2016 Author Share Posted June 29, 2016 I didn't install the library as I didn know I had to till this morning but does that sound like it might be my problem? Not installing the library I mean, I hope it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted June 29, 2016 Share Posted June 29, 2016 None of your scenery will work as it should until you have installed the libraries. At the same time, FTX Central will be installed and will probably go through the migration process. Please follow all the prompts and allow it time to finish. When it has, run FTX Central and wait until it has applied the FTX regions. Then run your simulator and all should be well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Perhaps you can take a screen shot and add its co-ordinates (Ctrl+Z) for a comparison to be made. Spot or locked spot view is better for scenery as more can be seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben706 Posted June 30, 2016 Author Share Posted June 30, 2016 Hia nick I disabled the global and Europe add ons this morning and the game still looks the same, so I must be missing something in the process of installing, I did notice that ftx central updated to version 2 which wouldn't allow me to manually activate the add ons any suggestions thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben706 Posted June 30, 2016 Author Share Posted June 30, 2016 Does it look like everything is working as it should? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted June 30, 2016 Share Posted June 30, 2016 Here is the second one, as near as I can make it with just Global and Open LC active and Vector but it doesn't alter this view much. You can make it all look better if you zoom out to around 0.70 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben706 Posted June 30, 2016 Author Share Posted June 30, 2016 yes they look very similar glad I seem to have it all working now you have been a big help thankyou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
