answered Stopping Orbx Scenery Verify

[BPCY22]

Hi,

 

 

I have been trying to run a verify on EU Germany North (I already had it) within Orbx Central and it is getting stuck on scan 41 of 68949.

 

I have waited hours, then I rebooted the PC several times but this automatically starts every time I start Orbx Central.

 

1) How can I stop the verify download?

 

2) Where can I go to get the EU Germany North files direct?

 

Thanks

Tony

I have over 1.6TB of space left on the HDD so that should not be an issue

 

settings/downloader TEMP is showing 0.

 

Thanks

Have you tried just uninstalling it and re DL the file and see if that works 

[BPCY22]

Hi Kwarazi,

 

Thanks for your reply.

 

Do you mean Uninstalling Orbx Central and reinstalling and downloading everything again?

 

I was hoping not to do that as I have loads of other LC, Regions and Airports and was hoping there was a way of doing this without having to reinstall everything.

 

Be nice if there was a script to do it.

 

Thanks

Tony

Try uninstalling GEN, then re-installing it, not Orbx Central.

Hi Stewart,

 

Sorry I'm not sure what you mean by unistalling GEN.

 

I don't have a program called GEN

 

Thanks

Hi, Tony.  You say you have EU Germany North?  FTX-GEN is what you're looking at.

[BPCY22]

Hi Stewart,

 

Thanks for telling me that.

 

Yes I have EU Germany North but whilst running the Verify of it the Uninstall button is not enable to click.

 

The state of Orbx Central is just hanging - I cannot click "Migrate to Library" as the Icon changes to a red halt icon. 

The Configure and Verify Files are "greyed out".

 

I can on the left select other Regions or Airports but the Downloader Icon is still showing a stalled state.

 

How can I stop it?

 

Thanks for your help

Every time I stop Orbx Central and reboot my  PC and restart Orbx Central the download of EU Germany North automatically starts again - which I don't want.

 

I need to fin out where the setting to download it is.

 

Thanks

Hi

So please go to settings\downloader and clear the temp location.

Then go to the location you designated for backups and delete the " gen " folder.

Then go to settings\help and run the sync simulator function.

[BPCY22]

Hi Doug,

 

The Settings\downloader Temp is 0 but I clicked clear anyway.

 

There is no "gen" folder in my backup area  c:\users\Tony\Appdata\Roaming\Orbx\Central\Backup

 

There is folders for eghi, eng, ftx-global-airport-pack, global-base, global-openlc-Europe, global-openlc-northamerica, global-trees, global-vector, irl, lib-objectflow, nir, orbxlibs, sco,wls   but no "gen".

 

Just running the settings/help Sync Simulator now.

 

Thanks

Hi Doug,

 

I clicked on the Sync Simulator but it is still trying download the EU Germany update so the "sync Scenery" button is just showing a spinning wheel icon.

 

The Download Queue is showing EU Germany North "Scanned 49 of 6949 files" but hangs then.

 

How do I prevent the Eu Germany North from starting up the download when restarting Orbx Central?

If I can do this I can uninstall Germany North and reinstall again.

 

Thanks

Tony

Please close Orbx Central, ensure your sim is not running, then go to your Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Orbx\Central folder and delete the “Cache” folder and retry.

[BPCY22]

Hi Doug,

 

Thanks for your help.

 

I removed the C:\Users\Tony\AppData\Roaming\Orbx\Central\Cache folder and rebooted the PC but upon starting Orbx Central the Download Queue started downloading EU Germany North and got stuck again at "Scanned 42 of 68949".

 

 

What I would like to do is stop the Download Queue completely from starting and then hopefully I can click uninstall EU Germany North button and then reinstall.

 

Any idea on how to stop the Download Queue from restarting after PC reboot and Orbx Central startup?

 

Thanks

Tony

Let's ask @Mitchell Williamson

Hi @BPCY22,

 

The download queue job cache that Orbx Central will use is found at %temp%/Orbx /job-cache.json. To forcefully clear the download queue upon restart:

• Delete the %temp%/Orbx /job-cache.json file.
• Completely restart Orbx Central.

Be aware that if you have auto-updates enabled, these will trigger shortly after launching Orbx Central. You may want to disable this in the settings before performing the above.
