Nick Cooper Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 Hello Giorgio, unfortunately, there was no need to reinstall anything but that advice is now too late. Running delete generated files deletes your add-ons.cfg file among many other things. After you have reinstalled everything, if you run P3D, all the deleted cfg files will be regenerated, but in default form. Opening Orbx Central at its Settings\Help page will allow you to run Sycn Simulator. This will write back all of the Orbx configurations and make it all work again.

speake Posted April 19, 2020 Share Posted April 19, 2020 Hello I have the identical problem after running "Delete Generated Files" (I had to run this after installing a FlyTampa scenery that caused P3D to crash and even re-installing P3Dv5 didn't resolve the issue. Running Delete Generated Files did fix it, but now my Orbx scenery, while all installed and showing as primary scenery within P3D, still they do not load when opening a location in P3D). I did have Orbx and P3D v5 working properly prior to running "Delete Generated Files". I have tried everything I can think of, and I did the Sync indicated above but it hasn't made any difference. I have the Orbx scenery on a separate drive and used mklink to create a link within the P3D directory (as indicated this setup itself worked prior to running Delete Generated Files). I can't understand why P3D won't load my Orbx scenery when it is listed in the Scenery library and everything seems right. Any help would be appreciated!

akstirling Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Add another one to the list of those stuck with the default scenery...... tried the resync a couple of times to no avail ..... attached find the logfile and scenery cfg, one of which hopefully might hold the key ...... central.log scenery.cfg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Hello, this line from your log suggests that the scenery.cfg file is in fact complete. Quote [SUCCESS] Saved C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5\scenery.cfg Is that the file that you have attached? The attachments in post 6 are working fine by the way.

Thanks for the tip Nick. Installed v5 yesterday, followed all the steps to migrate my files to v5 but for some reason Orbx was not showing up. Ran the sync simulator as you suggested and voila, problem solved. Thank you. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Hello, you should not expect there to be anything in the Documents folder for Orbx products. They do not use it. Can you attach a copy of your C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5\add-ons.cfg file and your C:\Users\your name\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5\add-ons.cfg file please?

speake Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Sorry to bother you again, Nick, but as I said in my original message I did try running the Sync Simulator in Orbx Central and it didn't work. I still get the stock scenery loading in P3D even though all of the Orbx Scenery is all showing up in the Scenery Library starting at Priority 1.

Nick Cooper Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Hello, would you take a look here and make the comparison with yours please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speake Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Thanks for the quick reply Nick. I am very familiar with the (excellent!) look of Orbx Scenery so I know I'm not seeing it, but I get that you have to deal with people with multiple levels of sim experience. (Just so you know that on my sim I have 3 - i7 computers and running an NVidia GForce GTX 1080Ti with 11GB of video RAM on the main computer on my sim, so it's not a hardware or lack of knowledge issue ). But I understand you deal with a wide variety of sim enthusiasts! I will attach a photo landing near Manchester (I can only load 1 because of file size, but I could send more) and one of my Scenery Library in P3D v5 which I just took as screenshots.

Nick Cooper Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Hello, apologies. The problem with having four customers in the same topic is that sometimes I answer one with the other's answer. Could I ask you to disable the speed trees and take another shot with coordinates please? Then I can set my copy of P3D v5 up as yours is and make a comparison. Thanks.
