Surfzup101 Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 GB South was working great- beautifull!!!. Next day does not. It can't find files which I confirmed are in the folder. Attached. GB Central is fine. Reinstalled. Nothing. Followed the advice above, although some differs. Order of scenery, attached, Convert file and get the same. Again, files are definitely in the file that is referenced. Help! I love the product. THX! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Hello, welcome to the forums. I have moved this to its own topic. It is quite possible to use an area that has not properly installed without seeing the errors until the area of the product that contains the missing texture calls is reached. I expect that this is what happened to you. The usual reason for a partial installation is a lack of disk free space, either on the disk where the installation is to take place or on the disk on which the files are to be installed.

Jon Clarke Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I need you to attach your scenery_packs.ini rather than a pic of it. The layering is incorrect and I can rearrange it. Regarding the error message you are receiving. It is difficult to understand how it was working fine one day and not the next because that message indicates an incomplete conversion process during installation. I need you first off to open the TEGB South/orthos/texture folder and in the little search box enter .jpg (dot jpg) If it finds some jpg files it means that the conversion from jpg to dds format images is not complete due mainly to predicted lack of Disk space. So advise me of the amount of Disk space you have left on the disk to which you are installing TEGB South. Do the 2 requested actions and then we will see what can be done.

Surfzup101 Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 No JPEGs in search. Scenery_packs is attached. Yes disk space in down to 56gb. I need to move the scenery over to a storage drive, but the description online for a symbolic link is daunting. Many, many thanks for the quick response. I am dying to be back over Britain.

Jon Clarke Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 I have rearranged your scenery_packs.ini. The one glaring absence in your scenery packs is there is no reference to OrbxLibsXP which is essential for Orbx addons to work properly. Open Orbx central and go to Global and download the Libraries as in the attached pic: When you have downloaded and installed the Orbx Library, run XP and then exit XP. Open your scenery_packs.ini and move the line SCENERY_PACK Custom Scenery/Orbx_OrbxlibsXP/ to the bottom of the scenery_packs.ini and Save. I also attach a programme for you to drop into your TEGB South/Orthos/texture folder. When you have placed in the folder click on it and it will run a dos programme to convert any non converted files, although there shouldn't be any according to your statement about no jpg files. If all this fails then run the Verify Files option for TEGB South. If the problem still persists then you need to install TEGB South to another Disk with at least I would say 175 GB free space, scenery_packs.ini Convert.cmd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfzup101 Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 I don't see a screen like the one you sent. See attached. No choice for Orbx libs. So, I am running the .ini you sent in XP first, then changing it as instructed, correct? STT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Hello, can you have a read of this topic and change to Orbx Central please? Then you will see a screen like Jon's and be able to install the libraries and your product. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However there is a clear message in blue telling you there is an update to Obx Librairies and to "click here" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surfzup101 Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share Posted December 18, 2019 Many thanks. Solved. Sorry, but I thought the "central" I was looking at was the one you spoke of. Looks alike. I did a complete reinstall and placed the main library on another drive. FYI: Installation kept freezing as shown in the attached, so I finally did a manual install and it works fine. I love the product and am buying more from you today. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
