Charlie McEwan Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Hi Nick, when we we last spoke it was ref the recent release of EGNX, is there any problem on me having both FTX central and the other version on my system EGNX that was released is certainly better in presentation having used the recommended tool, when I say that the scenery is more representative of the real airport. thanks Charlie ( McEwan( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted October 18, 2019 Share Posted October 18, 2019 Hello Charlie, you can use FTX Central and Orbx Central at the same time, however you must be careful to manage products installed with FTX Central only with FTX Central and those installed with Orbx Central, only with Orbx Central. You will see products that you know to be installed as not installed if you install with one version and then open the other. You must ignore these notifications and also update notifications which you will see for products installed with one but viewed in the other.

Charlie McEwan Posted October 23, 2019 Author Share Posted October 23, 2019 Thanks Nick, would there be any reason why my FPS rate is significantly lower when I am in and using Orbx central to select the recent released EGNX. When end I use EGNX in FTX CENTRAL FPS is up to 80+ in Orbx central WOTH THE NEW EGNX I am lucky if I hit high 20’s FPS THANKS CHARLIE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Hello Charlie, there is very much more detail in the new product. That's probably it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie McEwan Posted October 29, 2019 Author Share Posted October 29, 2019 Hi Nick, sorry for for this random question, some while back with your help in FTX Central you helped me rectify some graphic presentation errors I had after getting Guernsey Airport from another developer we did this by adjusting global vector, l loaded this the other day in Orbx central and had an issue when viewing aircraft outside view, views from Flt deck were fine the a/ c appeared to be covered in the green airfield from that view. Any ideas what may be the trouble. Thanks charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Hello Charlie, either you have an elevation adjustment file active that should not be or a second version of the airport. please take a look in scenery\world\scenery for EGJB or in your ORBX folder for the same thing and disable any that you find.

Nick Cooper Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 You may well also need to set the Insertion point in Orbx Central. "Enable Legacy Layering" must not be ticked. Orbx Airports and Regions should be placed immediately below your other addons, including any UK 2000 airports. Orbx Global open LC should be placed below Orbx Airports and Regions.

Charlie McEwan Posted November 5, 2019 Author Share Posted November 5, 2019 Good Morning Nick, Since our recent discussions within the messages I am now getting the following error message each time I open P3DV4.5 and select an A/C and location to commence a flight, the error in a box says "This WX is locked C\prepar3DV42\simobjectsairplanes\Carenado\b350i_king_air_b350i.air" I am not sure what this means or if related to our previous conversations would you have any ideas. Thanks Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Hello Charlie, it looks as if it related to the addon aircraft. If you have saved a flight including it, try choosing a different default flight perhaps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie McEwan Posted November 5, 2019 Author Share Posted November 5, 2019 OK Thanks Nick, ummmm don't recall saving this as a default flight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie McEwan Posted November 15, 2019 Author Share Posted November 15, 2019 Morning Nick, Sorry to bother you yet again, but..............EGNX when selected for any A/C is only showing "small" stands for parking previously there was a selection ie Medium /Large /Cargo stands etc, also EGTE is the same any ideas?
