Peja Lukovic Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 I am honestly lost. I have no idea how to get the orbx scenery to show up in P3D v4.2... I just upgrade my sim to it. I even tries to use the older client as well and nothing. I have orbx base, vector, and open LC North America. I need help on how to get the scenery to work please. also, every time I open up FTX central it is having me download and install it again, which is weird it has never done that before.

Elaine Dixon Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Hello Peja Lukovic Welcome to the FTX Forums Have you Installed the Orbx Libraries ? And then Force a re-migration 1) Launch the FTX Central control panel, Click the little blue box (Bottom left) to Install the Orbx libraries 2) After the download has completed, Then click Settings and under Tools click the Force Migration Tab 3) Still in Settings, Then click the Clear Temp tab When you have completed this close FTX Central and launch Prepar3D and test Let us know how you get on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peja Lukovic Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 right now I am reinstalling my sim then I will reinstall scenery with FTX central. should I do the force migration before or after the orbx sceneries have downloaded and installed? also, should I be installing orbx as an administrator and running P3D as an administrator?

Elaine Dixon Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Hello Peja Lukovic Thank you, The first number will do perfect Transaction ID You can remove everything else 35 minutes ago, Peja Lukovic said: should I do the force migration before or after the orbx sceneries have downloaded and installed? After, Yes when you have completed Installing your Orbx Scenery you will then Force a Migration and then ensure to Install the Orbx Libraries 35 minutes ago, Peja Lukovic said: also, should I be installing orbx as an administrator and running P3D as an administrator? It is recommended But not required to run FTX Central and Prepar3D as administrator, Personally speaking I run both as administrator The only requirement you must follow for best results is to Install Prepar3D as administrator and be logged into your PC as an administrator user Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peja Lukovic Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 Thank you, Elaine. So, I should install the orbx libraries last then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peja Lukovic Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 hello, I did everything as you said and it did not work. When I go back into FTX central to change a setting once everything Is installed, it acts as if I never installed FTX and it is making me download and install it again. No scenery is showing up in P3D for me. Is there any way that I can give you access to my computer so that you can see what is wrong? everything was working fine in 4.1, now everything is messed up with 4.2. I am just dumbfounded about whats going on and why its happening. I even reinstalled my windows! this is so frustrating. Can anyone help me please? I feel like the FTX installer is corrupted, because every time I go back to open the installer it has me download and install it again..... idk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peja Lukovic Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 so far I have deleted my windows installed again, installed p3d again and all Orbx products still the same results! what is going on with the orbx scenery? why is it not working at all anymore?

Doug Sawatzky Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Hi, Could you please attach a copy of your scenery.cfg file located at C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\P3Dv4. Thanks Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Sawatzky Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Thanks, everything looks normal so far, you have FTX Global Base, Vector, OpenLC NA, and the Orbx Libs installed. Please post screenshots with coordinates if you think there is still an issue. You could also have a look and do your own comparisons by using the below topic.

Peja Lukovic Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 this is LA... and there is definitely not any orbx product installed, I remember how it looked like and it was amazing! this is default scenery for sure. before I updated P3D it looked photo real and amazing this looks like trash now.

Doug Sawatzky Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 Ok, now go into your scenery library and uncheck/deactivate all the Orbx entries and post another screenshot of the exact location please. Also confirm the below please. Check from the P3Dv4 in game top of screen under Options/Add-ons that ObjectFlow2 is checked enabled. Check that “Use ObjectFlow 2 in Prepar3D v4” in FTXC3 settings is checked enabled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peja Lukovic Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 the picture above looks nothing like the orbx scenery that I had in the earlier version it looks horrible now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peja Lukovic Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 both of those are checked. I just don't get how it went from looks 4K to looking like flight sim x graphics... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peja Lukovic Posted March 11, 2018 Author Share Posted March 11, 2018 definitely not Orbx... this is by the default airport for P3D. something somewhere is blocking Orbx from getting into the sim and I don't know what or where to look. I am so frustrated. can anyone please please please help me out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 It looks to me that Global Base ,Vector, and OpneLCNA are indeed installed. It looks the same as mine for this area. The problem is not a lack of Orbx, but more a settings issue. Also, were you using REXTD or PTA before? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 This is mine, but I am using a REXTD theme and a PTA preset, and probably different texture settings than you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
