tangocharlie123 Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Hi When installing Orbx products into a new main library, why are the now going to Addons in P3D V4.5 instead of scenery.

Doug Sawatzky Posted May 3, 2020 Share Posted May 3, 2020 Hi Peter This is normal now if you install to a library, because they are being installed outside of the simulator root folder via the .xml method, like all other addons installed in this manner they can be accessed from the P3D addons menu. Orbx Central will also give the traditional option to install to the simulator root folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangocharlie123 Posted May 9, 2020 Author Share Posted May 9, 2020 Thanks Doug When reinstalling airports back into the sim directory I am getting an error"this product cannot be installed anywhere. You may have to create a library in the Orbx Central settings" even though I only want my scenery in the one spot. also had this with the new terra flora V2 regards Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 Hi Peter Yes, there are a few products now that will only install to an outside the simulator library. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tangocharlie123 Posted May 10, 2020 Author Share Posted May 10, 2020 Thanks Doug Just a side note that is this now a requirement of P3D V5 as items like Alice Springs used to go into the P3D folder ok. I am only running V4 so is it your software. Not happy as it is no longer classed as scenery by Orbx. Regards Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These products did not have that option for P3Dv4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
