WebMaximus Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Just did my first flight into ESSA after upgrading P3D to version 3.4 and noticed after landing how all taxi-signs were black which I think indicates the textures are missing. Then when approaching gate 5 P3D all of a sudden freezed but it was only the picture that froze, the sound kept going. Also I never received any error message and it didn't CTD...it just froze. I then tried closing P3D using the X in the upper right corner and that worked just fine. I guess maybe a re-installation of ESSA would be the cure for this or is there an easier/better way addressing these issues? I asked in another thread what I needed to do when it comes to all Orbx products after upgrading P3D to ver 3.4 and someone told me all that is required is to run the 'Force migration' option in FTX Central 2 so that is the only thing I did after upgrading P3D. Thanks in advance for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Nyberg Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Hey, as for ESSA we are still to see if there are compatibility issues with the 3.4.9 version. We have been a bit occupied with the release of Valdez but I will look into it during this upcoming week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Hi WebMaximus, Very strange it. I immediately updated the P3D to the 3.4.9 version. The only action after was to reinstall FTXGlobal. Then, when opening FTXC-2, itself begins the migration process to update the textures. If it does not start the process, you can force the procedure. It's just, everything works.

WebMaximus Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 Thanks guys and sorry for the late reply. Not sure why I sometimes don't receive a notification when I new post has been made to a thread I subscribe to... Anyway the problem with the black taxiway signs went away by itself after I restarted P3D. Another problem though which has been reported in other threads is the taxiway lights no longer work in 3.4. Then you say you reinstalled FTX Global where I only did the force migration thing but never reinstalled FTX Global. Has there been an official recommendation from Orbx what needs to be done for the Orbx product line after upgrading to 3.4 to make sure all products work OK?

Voyager Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Yep, the need to reinstall FTCGlobal is for those who do the full update (all parts). For those who do only the part "Client", it is not necessary. Yes, I confirm that the taxiway lights in P3Dv3.4 seem to be in trouble. But I'm sure the developer is already taking the necessary measures. Cheers, Voyager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WebMaximus Posted October 4, 2016 Author Share Posted October 4, 2016 Thanks a lot for your prompt reply! I will then make sure to reinstall FTX Global since I did update all parts of P3D including the client, content and scenery modules. Do I first need to uninstall FTX Global or will it be good enough that I simply run the installer again? I also wonder about the other products such as Vector and openLC, do I need to reinstall those as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voyager Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 No need to uninstall anything. You should only install FTX Global because P3D replaces the textures when it made a full installation of it. Cheers, Voyager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chok Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 I am having the issue with missing taxiway lighting in ESSA after updating to 3.4 as well. Looking forward to update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zsolt Monostori Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Just a quick question, is the fix still being worked on or already released? I have updated so many things ORBX recently that I can't recall if ESSA was updated or not, but I still do experience the above issue. Please kindly confirm if the fix is still in the works. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus Nyberg Posted November 16, 2016 Share Posted November 16, 2016 Hey! It is still in the works so you haven't missed it we have a fix candidate ready, it is gonna go through a small beta test before release but it is on its way.
