Having migrated all of my scenery through ORBX Central, P3D now asks me to enable most of them whenever I start it. It does not seem to remember my answers.

As I have 'A LOT' of ORBX scenery, this is rather a pain to get it going.

 

Is there a way to stop this happening?

 

I tried running HELP/ReSync for my scenery but it came up with an error:

 

Various log files attached.

Could not find a basic log or error file for P3D, like X-Plane has. Do they create one??

 

Cheers

I may have solvede this one.

First I tried uninstalling and re-installing some of my scenery - this had no effect.

 

I then loaded up the latest version of Lorby-Si Add-on Organiser (V1.43 b03.)

This detected all the new ORBX scenery as add-ons and has successfully updated the add-ons.cfg for P3DV4.

 

The new cfg file is attached along with the original - *cfg.P4AOBAK

add-ons.cfg add-ons.cfg.P4AOBAK

Hi!

 

Prepar3D should update the add-ons.cfg automatically when you press 'Yes' on the confirmations. One thing that may prevent this is if Prepar3D isn't running as administrator.

I'm glad that it is resolved for you now, but do let us know if you run into this in the future even after running Prepar3D as admin.
