IslandFlyer Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Hello, I just bought FTX Global, Vector, OpenLC NA and OpenLC Europe. I am running it on FSX:SE. Ever since I installed these products, I seem to no longer be correctly aligning to runways when using an approach procedure that was entered through the GPS. For example, I'll go in and select an ILS approach to runway X through the GPS panel. The aircraft lines up to where FSX *thinks* the runway is, but it is no longer lining up correctly. Did Orbx change the position and angle of runways? This is even worse for larger planes that can't afford to come in at the wrong angle. Any help would be appreciated, please.

Nick Cooper Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 hello, welcome to the forums. There is nothing in any of those products that can affect the location of an airport or the files within that airport. FTX Global Base is textures, the Open LC products add to those textures and rearrange them. Vector provides roads, shores, railways, pylons and inland water.

IslandFlyer Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share Posted July 29, 2017 Thank you for the welcome. I see what you are saying about the four products I listed not being related. How about some of these freeware addons I installed from the Orbx site: https://orbxdirect.com/freeware ? Specifically, I am wondering if the EU and NA Airport packs might have affected it.

Nick Cooper Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 While I do not know the answer to that, if the airport has been moved, possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IslandFlyer Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share Posted July 29, 2017 Ok, I am hoping someone else from the dev team will chime in then. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IslandFlyer Posted August 1, 2017 Author Share Posted August 1, 2017 Anyone else know why this might be happening? Seeing it on a lot of European airports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Correia Posted August 4, 2017 Share Posted August 4, 2017 Global, Vector & openLC do not change airport facility files, so the issue lies elsewhere. The freeware EU pack contains a number of airports which are detailed in the FTXG Freeware EU Airports Packs.kmz file located in the ORBX\User Documents folder. If one of the "lot of European airports" is in the pack, then report the ICAO specifically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
