AaronKia Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Hi, I have recently installed ESSA the same way as I have been installing all my ORBX add-ons for the past year. For ESSA all the buildings are showing correctly but with missing ground textures. All my ORBX add-ons are installed in the correct order in my scenery library and with ObjectFlow enabled both in FTX Central and within the sim. I am a bit lost for answers and ideas but from having a quick search throughout the forum it appears I am not the only one with this problem for ESSA. I have tried reinstalling it several times with no success. I have attached some screenshots to show this is a problem no matter the 'season' selected. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks in advance, Aaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Hello, welcome to the forums. The ground textures require objectflow to be installed and working. There are two tick boxes, one on the FTX Central settings page and one in the in-game drop down Add-ons menu, both must be ticked. Here are two images that show the difference.

AaronKia Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hi Nick, many thanks for your reply. I have both of these selected already as shown below. Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hi Aaron Are you using P3Dv4.2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronKia Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hi Doug, many thanks for your reply. I am indeed using v4.2. I went to re-download FTX central yesterday but it appears I am stuck in v3.2.3.0 instead of the new v3.2.5.4 that you have linked above ^. Should I opt-in to Fastlane and download the latest FTX Central that way? I am concerned this could make my sim unstable however.. Would I have to re-install everything too if I were to do this? Kind regards, Aaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Hi Aaron No, there would be no need for any reinstalls and you can opt out of Fastlane at any time as it is a beta. Objectflow 2 will not work in v4.2 without the new version Libraries. So you can either wait for the non beta release of the Orbx Libraries and do without Objectflow, or opt in with almost zero risk.

Andreas Richter Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Im having the same issue with my taxiways/runways, im running the latest ftx central 3.2.5.4 and have both boxes ticked aswell, do I need to manually remove orbx libraries and reinstall it then?

Nick Cooper Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Hello, it's unlikely that will make any difference. Can you post the contents of your C:\Users\your name\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons\Orbx ObjectFlow 2\add-on.xml file and also the exact path on your PC to C:\Users\your name\AppData\Local\Orbx\FTXCentral\v3.2.5.4\Orbx_ObjectFlow_x64.dll Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Thanks. Does the way your name is spelled in the add-ons.xml file exactly match your PC user account name?

flygus Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Hi guys the same problem here. Running the latest ftx central 3.2.5.6 and have both boxes ticked aswell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Hello, there aren't many reasons why objectflow does not work. There is no universal "fix" as there is no universal problem. 1. It is not installed correctly. P3D v4 2. It is installed but the option to enable it is not ticked, in either FTX Central or P3D v4 or both. 3. The path in the C:\Users\Your name\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons\Orbx ObjectFlow 2\add-ons.xml file is not correct. This can be only one character, sometimes the incorrect spelling of the user name. 4. User input that has disturbed the files or the content of the files.

Doug Sawatzky Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Hi, In the in-game drop down Add-ons menu, make sure there is only one Orbx ObjectFlow 2 entry, and not a second one showing from a One Drive directory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Thanks Doug, that would be covered by reason 4 I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Yes, thanks Nick, but I have seen a couple instances where there are two checked entries in the In the in-game drop down Add-ons menu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Have either of you any idea how the second objectflow entry was created? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andreas Richter Posted March 12, 2018 Share Posted March 12, 2018 That did it for me aswell, not sure how the One drive entry is made tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
