fabs79 Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Hi, I'd love to buy the new Honolulu scenery, but I'm still reluctant to install the new ORBX Central. Have the initials issues been fixed in the meantime? Some people reported their whole scenery library was in disorder after migrating to ORBX Central, and I really don't have the time to reinstall Prepar3d if something goes wrong. Best regards, Fabian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Hello, you can buy the product and use Orbx Central to install it to your Prepar3D v4 Folder. This should have no effect on an existing installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvidencePlz Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 The first few versions caused havoc to my P3D scenery. The current one is doing very well. No problem at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MotoDave Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 4013 Central re-arranged all of my FSX/A layering, creating more work rather than the time alloted for flying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvdboomen Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I installed it today and stayed away from the library install method. There were quiet a lot of updates which all installed flawlessly. As far as I can see, there are no issues in the scenery. I flew in AU v2 from Tamworth and in PNW from Victoria to Vashon. The only thing I notice is a slight reduce in frame rates but that also can be due to a Windows update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xxd09 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 Spoke too soon?-Rearranged my Sceneries spontaneously after fourth startup but easily resolved in the usual way in Settings Hope it doesn’t do it again! xxd09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisper Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 xxd09, try the ‘Sync Simulator’, if the scenery order stays ok, then you are good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Mills Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 When I installed ORBX Central a few weeks ago, I saw that my Global Base package had an update available. After I updated Global Base using ORBX Central, my default airport scenery was messed up. The biggest nuisance was trees growing out of runways and taxiways. I ended up having to delete and reinstall P3D and every bit of my ORBX scenery library. It's working fine now, but I was reminded of the axiom "If it ain't broke, don't fix it."

edpatino Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 To ORBX guys: Will these issues ever been resolved by someone capable at ORBX?. It's still under investigation?. Look at the following thread, posted almost six (6) weeks ago and still no efective solutions. I'm also on hold to buy any new ORBX products until the mess caused after the installation of ORBX Central is sorted out, in particular the strange display issues associated to changes in the layering order of the Scenery.CFG files, etc., all of them very well documented already in the thread above (no need to repeat them).L Regards, Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RancidViper Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 I must also say it is disappointing about the lack of communication over this issue. As a long term customer of ORBX you would expect a higher level of support for obvious anomalies like this one which are being experienced by multiple people. I have been trying to get an answer for what seems like an eternity now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a response to the post just one minute after your post here. Checking "advanced layering" should resolve most of the issues in Ed Patino's topic. As a general note to all, please do not "pile on" to another person's topic in the Central support forum. It makes it much harder for our team to track individual issues, and ultimately results in a longer time to issue resolution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have my own topic on this issue that actually predates ORBX Central: I just haven't been getting any responses on that which is why I added on to these more recent ones which have the same issue. I am about to try out the suggestions and will report back. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCA2050 Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Still issues here, in fact that's an understatement since it doesn't work at all. I bought Oregon yesterday (order receipt 5d9b868e709db). Deinstalled FTX Central which had always worked for me. Installed Orbx Central and now nothing works since whatever I try I get the communication error... (error remains even when AV and Firewall are shut down) Just got home from work and issue is still there. System: Win7 64 bit, 32Gb, 1Tb XP11 SSD + 6Tb data HDD My internet line is an 300 Mbps line without any issues for connection in whatever other software or games I run.

Nick Cooper Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Hello, as this is a topic in General Discussion - no support requests please, may I ask you to instead create a topic in the Orbx Central support forum and attach your central.log file to it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aussieflyer38 Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 Wish I could agree, second time I've downloaded it and still have an issue, it throws an error message when I try to verify files. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
