nighthawk117 Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Having recently switched to OrbX Central, I can no longer find the runway elevation fix tool.. there doesnt seem to be a link to it on Central. Has this been retired now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Hello, please open the Vector product page in Orbx Central and click on Configure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

haroldeh Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I have Orbx Central v4.0.25. Just finished reloading all my ORBX products on a new computer last evening. I do not see a "runway elevation fix tool" on the Global VECTOR Configure page. I have an elevation issue with KRDD - the infields between runways and taxiways are steep slopped valleys about 10 feet deep (among other elevation issues on the airport). Wanted to try the elevation fix tool … but can't find it. Thanks, Harold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Hello Harold, we will have to guess which version of which simulator and the guess will be that it is not P3D v 4.5.13.32097. The Vector control panel is accessed via FTX Central or Orbx Central. In FTX Central, visit the Vector product page and click on Control Panel. In Orbx Central, visit the Vector product page and click on Configure. Here is what to do when you have found it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haroldeh Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Sorry, Nick. I'm running the latest version - P3D v4.5.13.32097. KRDD is in neither list - AEC IS ENABLED FOR or AEC IS DISABLED FOR. Harold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Thanks. If there are no Vector AEC files, even before this latest version of P3D, any elevation anomaly cannot be due to Vector. A new problem, introduced by P3D v4.5.13.32097, is that the airport elevation is now read from the highest version of that airport in the scenery library. Often, it seems, this is an entry from a program that updates the airport data. If you have such a thing installed, it can no longer be above the addon airports, or it can and does cause anomalies. Could that be the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haroldeh Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I've loaded none that I'm aware of. Can you give me an example of such a program? There are airports listed in both AEC columns, but KRDD is in neither. Harold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Here is a Google search result As KRDD is in neither column, it means that there are no files and Vector cannot therefore cause an elevation anomaly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haroldeh Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 The Google search does pullup results for NaviGraph which I use to update Airac cycles. My understanding is that it does not update native P3D airport data. I'll try uninstalling KRDD and re-installing. Harold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haroldeh Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 Reinstalled. Rebooted. Same valleys. I can live with it. Thanks for your response, Nick. Harold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
