kenclare Posted April 9, 2019 Share Posted April 9, 2019 Please help I am a relative newbie but have successfully installed all three True Earth UK Scenery packs on my mac. I have bought Southampton and Sumburgh and tried to install last night. After reading forums I wonder if missing Orbx libraries is the problem. Downloaded today and its a folder with seven zip files in. Not sure what to do with them and where to put them - all help appreciated. I realise I am probably missing something obvious. Thanks in advance for help. Log.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Sawatzky Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 Hi Sorry, I have very little experience with X-Plane and none with Mac, but I do know that you will need the Orbx libraries for your products to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenclare Posted April 11, 2019 Author Share Posted April 11, 2019 Thank you Doug I sincerely appreciate the response. I am now struggling with where to put and what to do with the libraries on my mac. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted April 11, 2019 Share Posted April 11, 2019 I would say, extract the .zip file into the Custom Scenery folder and place the "scenery_packs.ini" entry at the bottom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will keep on digging I'm assuming you've downloaded the cross-platform download from the Support Page. Currently Version 1.6. If you have lots of zip files in your download I would suggest that you've got the manual download (from the Freeware Page) rather than the cross-platform download from the Support Page. That should give you a download called Orbx_OrbxlibsXP160_CrossPlatform Inside that are: a text file 'CrossPlatform Installation Readme .txt' This is the instruction file and a folder called - Orbx_OrbxlibsXP Simply drag the Orbx_OrbxlibsXP into your Custom Scenery Folder and it's done. Simple as that. If you have an older Orbx_OrbxlibsXP, delete that first. Once you've run X-Plane you may need to re-order the library entry in your scenery_packs.ini. I put mine below any Orbx airfields but above TE entries. Don't know if that's correct but everything seems to work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
