JaseJ Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Click open in FTX central it will go in your FTX central and download it will automatic after finished downloading and go to setting and force migration then you're good to fly sim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Hello, nothing wrong to see in that image. What do you think is the matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd been mucking about with various scenery activations.....TE GB just didn't look right. I had moved the Lib entry at the same time. I was wondering about the relationship between LC, Vector, FTX England, etc.....as I say, TE GB just didn't look right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 TEGB is not affected by LC, Vector, FTX England, etc. FTX Central is really quite good at placing the Orbx scenery library entries in the right place in relation to each other. You seem to have used the Insertion Point tool correctly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peregrine Posted May 3, 2019 Author Share Posted May 3, 2019 Thanks, Nick. So, if TEGB is above FTX, LC, etc it should be the dominant scenery and I need not deactivate anything? With Libs remaining the above all other ORBX entries? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Dane Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Hello Sorry to butt in, but since you are speaking about the very topic I wanted to enquire about, may I ask this, please? s just loaded in (from FTX Central) a lot of new sceneries. They are all located at the top of the scenery file except for five ORBX VECTOR listings which are way down the list (see picture) Is this correct?

Hi Yes this is correct, there is also one other Vector entry that is placed near the bottom of the scenery library, usually 3rd from the bottom, and it is imperative that these be left where FTX Central has placed them.

Father Dane Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 That's a relief - I saw the one near the bottom … and I wondered. But now I am reassured. Thank you! Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello, TEGB is photo scenery and a region so it therefore over rides Vector, OLC and any landclass scenery. It will be placed with the regions and below the airports and should be left alone. FTX Central places the libraries at the top as a matter of convenience. Libraries are just that, a repository of files to be used by other products. It does not matter where they are in a scenery library, as they are, by definition, passive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peregrine Posted May 3, 2019 Author Share Posted May 3, 2019 My original comment in this post was to do with the screenshots below. I took this at EGHI (you can see the airfield in the top right hand corner in the first one). They don't look correct to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 3, 2019 Share Posted May 3, 2019 Hello, that looks like a bit of missing autogen, possibly as a result of adding the payware version.

Father Dane Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Hello I have a number or UK2000 sceneries - and a number of ORBX as well. As a matter of habit, I install the UK2000 series at the top of my scenery list. Is that best practise when using ORBX? I have all the ORBX Global and LC packs and EU England etc as well. What suggestions do you have? What's best here? Many thanks Father Dane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Hello, probably the bset practice is to disable the EU England airports that have UK 2000 equivalents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Dane Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Hello I don't have any conflicts with that. I made sure I have only one version of an airport. But it is all right to put the payware sceneries on top of any ORBX listing? Cheers Father Dane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 12, 2019 Share Posted May 12, 2019 Hello, yes, that is where they should be. here is how to correctly operate the FTX Central Insertion Point tool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whisper Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 little question, how can i disable the EU England airports that have UK 2000 equivalents? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Hello, just search the ORBX\FTX_EU\FTX_EU_ENG_05_SCENERY\scenery folder for the ICAO code. Typically you will find three files for each airport. Once you have found them, I would suggest that you create a folder inside FTX_EU_ENG_05_SCENERY\scenery, name it OFF for example and place all the files you don't want into it.
