I loaded EGHI fine Have you got all the required updates needed for a successful install of EGNM? Updated TEGB Central, OrbxLibs. Open OrbxCentral and see if there are any pending updates. If so install them, then uninstall your current EGNM and then reinstall it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2e1ilh Posted September 23, 2019 Author Share Posted September 23, 2019 Jon, yes I have checked and done uninstall and reinstall, it just sits at Reading New Scenery Files. However if I uninstall EGNM the it reads all my scenery files and starts. I have just done this again and EGHI loaded fine.....not sure what’s causing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Clarke Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 What does your xp Log.txt say? Attach it and your scenery_packs.ini. I will look at it in the morning as I have to go now. Check that you have got a SAM file in Custom Scenery folder and a SAM folder in your Resources/plugins folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Sawyer Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Same exact issue Jon, I was just going to post what he posted. I too will post the files. When I set up a flight and type in EGNM all I get is a helipad. And then XP sits forever, I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL out of it. No wonder I had a CTD when flying from EGNX TO EGNM, I was about 19 miles away when XP froze solid and then CTD'd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Clarke Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 @Jack Sawyer @2e1ilh I am struggling to think of a cause for both of your problems. So I will need your responses to these questions: Will you both confirm that you have the updated TEGB Central installed. Have you both Verified Files yet? What size is your EGNM folder. It should be 1.91GB and if you open the folder should look like the pic I have attached. When you choose EGNM in Flight Configurator I want you to then click on Custom as exampled in the pic. This should open up options of your starting point. Choose a runway or parking slot/gate. It maybe something affecting the Heliport that is causing a problem. 11 hours ago, 2e1ilh said: Jon, yes I have checked and done uninstall and reinstall, it just sits at Reading New Scenery Files.

Jack Sawyer Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Hi Jon, I have everything Orbx makes for XP. So yes, I have all of the UK. Yes sir, I did Verify Files and it was ok. And my folder is exactly 1.91 in size. But I just went and looked, I have all those files listed in your screenshot. I’m missing only one, it’s the last one, version_egmn.... I just loaded a copter in the sim, went to EGNM and Customize. It’s as you describe so I can go to a different parking spot and as I type this I’m there now and it looks fantastic!

Jack Sawyer Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 One more thing Jon. I ran xOrganizer so I don’t know if my scenery packs file is messed up. I saved the original, should I replace the existing one with the original? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you hold back a moment on your joy, and see if you can now fly from the heliport. That means don't go to the Customize option but stay on the default starting point you were before where it just hung on reading scenery files. Be aware that the new runway location you chose may have become the default, so ensure you choose heliport. I want to see if the Heliport is the problem. 1 minute ago, Jack Sawyer said: One more thing Jon. I ran xOrganizer so I don’t know if my scenery packs file is messed up.

Hi Jon and thanks again, I went to all four helipads and it was fine, except one of them I was inside a static helicopter . But it loaded just as fast as any other location. Here's my file and many thanks Jon, you deserve a lot of credit here at Orbx! scenery_packs.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's my file and many thanks Jon, you deserve a lot of credit here at Orbx! scenery_packs.ini 4.85 kB · 0 downloads Here you are: I reserve my comment about the organizer. It works fine with non Orbx type addons, but can organize Orbx addons in an irregular way. I noticed for example that a couple of the Orbx addons have prefixes with A/B/C but the organizer had not placed them in that alpha sequence. scenery_packs.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 Thanks Jon, it’s going to be binned then. If it messes things up then I don’t need it. Much appreciation for your help. I’ll install this file later today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
