capt sl Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Quote Hi Just noticed, my scenery library order has gone haywire. All Ftx entries have gone to the top, and other addon scenery are now below. Also for some weird reason I now have 17 OZx_AUS , OZx_LIB entries as well This is in FSX.

Traveller Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Hi there, Is there any chance that you have already adjusted the Insertions points? As in the two screenshots below, see: 1▼ 2▼ Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traveller Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 It looks like these OZx entries are messing up your library. I don't know what to do buddy. I don't have this kind of add on. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capt sl Posted August 16, 2019 Author Share Posted August 16, 2019 Hi Doug Thanks. But what im saying is the OZX_AUS ans OZx_LIB are showing in the scenery library 17 times rather just once each Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Sorry, Orbx is not Ozx, and I have no idea... Maybe ask in the "Community Scenery Addons" subforum linked below. https://orbxsystems.com/forum/forum/165-community-scenery-addons/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt sl Posted August 16, 2019 Author Share Posted August 16, 2019 I realise orbx is not ozx but this has been caused by orbx central , so would like to know what has happened .perhaps someone to do with orbx central can assist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben McClintock Posted August 16, 2019 Share Posted August 16, 2019 Thank you for your report @capt sl. We've added an issue to our list regarding the duplicate OZx entries. You will unfortunately need to manually remove the existing duplicate OZx entries from your scenery library. To avoid Central adding more, go to ORBX/Scripts and look for a file starting with "scenerylib" that also has OZx in the name. Change the extension of that file to .off (or move it somewhere else). We hope to have a fix for this soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This update will release within 24 hours. I'm hoping to get a post out today detailing those changes and what we're working on in the near future. It's no secret that this has been quite a bumpy release, but we genuinely want to make Central the premier platform for managing your Orbx scenery, and we won't stop until we get there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glasklar Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Hi capt sl I have the same problem with OZx entries in the library. Every time I uninstall or install a product via ORBX Central the tool adds the OZx folders OZx_AUS, OZx_Lib and OZx-NA to the library . An other problem I have is, when I untick the boxes of the multiple OZx folders in the scenery library in FSX, ORBX Central double the default FSX entries in the library. I use only FSX. In the German Forum you can find more details about my problems with ORBX Central in conjunction with FSX. Heinz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 Hello, libraries can be anywhere in a scenery library because they are a resource to be drawn on by other products and therefore entirely passive. Does your scenery work with your entries in that order? I ask because I do not know, I have not gone down the xml path yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greggerm Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I had similar library strangeness on my first Orbx Central install, but what was unfortunate is that my install was a 100% clean Prepar3D v4.5 installation - I re-imaged my PC and installed entirely fresh with no other addon software items installed. Seemingly without any outside influences, it still had difficulty handling the proper scenery layering. (Win10 1903, Prepar3d v4.5HF1, Orbx Central 4.0.6 - Global, Vector, oLC NA, two airports) Like AUA9085 above, insertion points were left as defaults shown in his post. I opted to install all items directly into the simulator directory paths instead of using the XML/Library method. All of my Orbx items ended up lumped together at the very top of my scenery library... Vector was up at the very top of the library and was not in the correct order in reference to itself - in addition, the AEC entry was commingled among the other Vector entries too. Entries for oLC_NA were not in the correct order, but at least was located below my two airport purchases, which was correct. This layering caused significant problems with scenery, most evident around the two Orbx addon airports. To solve for this, I installed P3Dv3 and the older FTX Central, and reinstalled all my Orbx addons there. I documented the scenery order, and then used Lorby's tool to reconfigure my P3Dv4 install. All is working as it should now. I'd recommend anyone looking to jump into Orbx Central take quick notes on what their scenery library looks like prior to jumping in. It could prove to be a very useful backup in the event you need to manually correct your scenery layering. -Greg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AUA9085 Posted August 22, 2019 Share Posted August 22, 2019 I remember that it was recommendend in the past, that the OrbxLibs are always on top of everything. What I just saw is in my scenery.cfg orbx libs are the latest entry, so, the entrys from the addon xmls, comes after the scenery cfg. or before?

Does your scenery work with your entries in that order? I ask because I do not know, I have not gone down the xml path yet. I have created a topic in which I show what happens with that order on my side. It is here: Reordering such that all OpenLC entries comes below regions removes all issues I have done it manually by editing scenery.cfg and correcponding .xml files. This is something ORBX Central should be doing, automatic. I hope it will be resolved in the upcoming patch. For now it works (untill I change anything in ORBX Central).

Hey, I did a complete refresh of my computer so I can not say if everything is working fine. I just want to ask before I install all my scenery if the ordering is correct from ORBX, because I have 0 experience with the new central. BTW: I installed the latest central update but still the same ordering. So the question is: Is the ordering correct how it looks like now? scenery.cfg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
