Philippe Damerval Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Hello, Two airports I have purchased for FSX steam show no buildings of any kind at the airport. They are 2W3 (transaction ID#5e93f76953f19) and KTVL (transaction ID#5eaa5341ea4b3). They do not correspond the the screenshots shown on the buy page. Here are things I have tried: * uninstall and reinstall airport sceneries in the Orbx tool * deactivate them and reactivate them in FSX steam with a rebuild of scenery cache in between * move them to the top of the scenery order , rebuild scenery cache Help would be appreciated, barring that, a refund. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosqr Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Hi welcome to the forum Do you have third party products? Such as KOS Lukla Chania Skiathos? Also Please check you have your libraries and Object flow updated and only one Object flow entry in your sim. Cheers Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Hello, welcome to the forums. Asking for a refund before the installation is complete is a little premature. Please go to steamapps\common\FSX\Orbx\FTX_AU\FTXAA_ORBXLIBS\Scenery and run ModuleInstaller.exe The next time you start FSX, it should ask you to let it run objectflow, answer Yes.

Philippe Damerval Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 Hello, and thank for the welcome. "Asking for a refund before the installation is complete is a little premature." - I did ask for help first, a refund barring that. "Please go to steamapps\common\FSX\Orbx\FTX_AU\FTXAA_ORBXLIBS\Scenery and run ModuleInstaller.exe" - I did this, with the results attached. "The next time you start FSX, it should ask you to let it run objectflow, answer Yes." It did not, and there is no change as evidenced by the new screenshot. As a note, I bought many other airport sceneries from Orbx (All my 3rd party sceneries are Orbx) like KHAF, KSTS, 2S1, CYBD and more and they work perfectly.

Philippe Damerval Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 In reply to Carlosqr, with thanks for his response: - I have no other sceneries besides Orbx products. Of those I have: BASE pack, Buildings HD, Trees HD, VECTOR, openLC north america, Iceland Demo, Airprot Pack, Libraries, Northern California, Pacific Fjords, Pacific Northwest, Southern Alaska, Portland, and a number of airports. Only 2W3 and KTBL are quite broken at this time. - The Orbx libraries are the latest according to Orbx Central and since they don't come with any manual I do not know how to check whether there is only one objectflow entry. Uninstalling and reinstalling them did not change anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosqr Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Thanks Philippe Nick will continue assisting you from here on as my knowledge and mainly in this sim ( FX Stream edition) is more than limited Thanks and good luck Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Hello, can you give me the version number of the copy of FSX-SE that you are using please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Damerval Posted May 3, 2020 Author Share Posted May 3, 2020 Certainly, it's a recent install so it *should* be the latest - 10.0.62615.0. Is it logical that some airports would work fine and others not? I'm trying to figure out what direction to search for answers in. I'm also curious to know if there is difference between installing via Orbx central or installing manually - there is an option to do so in Orbx central and I am wondering why.

Philippe Damerval Posted May 8, 2020 Author Share Posted May 8, 2020 Can I have a status? I'm willing to wait but it's harder if I have no clue how long we are talking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Hello, both airports rely heavily on objectflow to display all their features. It seems clear that something is preventing objectflow from working on your system. You cannot install objectflow into either FSX or FSX-SE, it is installed when the Orbx Libraries are and activated using the Module Installer. These images are for the same version of FSX-SE that you have. Objectflow active Objectflow disabled Objectflow active Objectflow disabled Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Damerval Posted May 8, 2020 Author Share Posted May 8, 2020 Okay... I'm not hearing either a recommendation for something I need to do to fix the problem, or the announcement of a refund. I'm assuming you don't intend of leaving me out without some sort of answer? In particular, which airports rely heavily on objectflow and which don't? For instance, does the Catilina airport rely heavily on objectflow? Looking at 2S1, it must not do because it looks just like the screenshots. CYBD also. Those are very good looking airports, is there nothing further about this or anything at all I could try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Hello, we would need to explore why your copy of objectflow does not work, despite the two FSX-SE versions apparently being the same. We could check first if it is being activated by you visiting your fsx_se.cfg file and deleing the line in the [Trusted] section that contains the word objectflow. I cannot give you the exact text because that varies from installation to installation. If it is installed correctly, the next time you start FSX-SE, you should be asked to accept the module as trusted. You must accept the module as trusted. I cannot give you the exact text because that varies from installation to installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Hi Philippe Do you or did you have more than one version of FSX installed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philippe Damerval Posted May 9, 2020 Author Share Posted May 9, 2020 Nick Cooper, understood - I will find the .cfg file and make the requested change, then verify that I am prompted to authorize objectflow. Should I reinstall Orbx libraries manually, would that help? Doug - yes, I had FSX installed. I uninstalled it entirely using a guide I found online allowing me to remove "all" (what I know as all but if you have additional info please let me know) traces of it before installing FSX-SE and reinstalling all Orbx components.

Doug Sawatzky Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Thanks And just for good measure it might be a good idea to follow the below process. Please use the FSX Registry Utility found at this link https://www.tweakfs.com/store/free_tools.php and use the "Set Path" option and point it to your FSXSE installation.
