jlsaghaa Posted June 21, 2020 Share Posted June 21, 2020 Hello I have just installed TE North California and my California airfields. First flight and I notice that I have a lack of autogen for the buildings (see the screen below). I'm in V5HF1, my cursors are almost all on the right .. I have synchronized again and no change ..., installation in P3DV5 (old method). I checked on Washington and it's the same thing whereas before the installation of TE North California everything was good ... Same with Great Britain : a great lack of autogen ! images taken north of San Carlos towards Frisco My scenery config : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlsaghaa Posted June 22, 2020 Author Share Posted June 22, 2020 Good evening A helping hand or a debugging method to restore a good situation? What can I do to fix this problem? Apart from using Orbx Central I don't know what to do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted June 23, 2020 Share Posted June 23, 2020 Hello, there are some other developer's products that can cause this. Your fellow customer Carlos has posted this: Please rule them out first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlsaghaa Posted June 23, 2020 Author Share Posted June 23, 2020 Hello, Nick. Thank you for your response. I thought about this option because I use France VFR (and didn't install the other addons mentioned here). I use Autogen's multiple definition (via autogen.cfg) and the last installation (via central Orbx) is for TE North California. I checked the latest autogen definitions for Orbx and they are the right ones .... In fact, as soon as you launch the installation of an Orbx product via Central, it will overwrite the contents of the Autogen folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlsaghaa Posted June 23, 2020 Author Share Posted June 23, 2020 A great mystery I can't solve! just in case, here is the content of my Autogen folder (I'm now in V5 HF2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosqr Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Hi Jlsaghaa There is a user that has advised that the auto configurator merger doesn't work in P3D v5 I don't know if Autogen's multiple definition you mention is the same as the ACM but it might not work either on P3D v5 if you are having this problem Regards, Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosqr Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 I read again the his post and he says the ACM does work in P3D v5 but he's trying a procedure recommended by LM, sorry Can you see if your P3D has an entry in the add-ons section for the Autogen's multiple definition program you use? Every time you run Cental the autogen definitions will be overwritten to Orbx ones so you need to ensure the program you use ro merge them is active and doing the job for products to display correctly If you are having problems something is not installed correctly, I would start by checking the VFR France you mentioned If you disable it, close the sim, run Central, close it and then open the sim, does it fix the problem? It could be other product too causing this Cheers Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlsaghaa Posted June 24, 2020 Author Share Posted June 24, 2020 Hello, Carlos. Thank you for taking an interest in my problem. I am not using ACM which, indeed, is not working properly. The multiple definition of autogen is based on the use of the Autogen.cfg file which is located in the LM folder in ProgramData. You define all the autogen you use (ex autogen by default of the V5, autogen Orbx, autogen FranceVFR, ... ). Autogen that you declare in as many folders as you need. This process works perfectly in V4.5, so I can go from the north of France (France VFR) to England (TE Orbx) without any manipulation with full autogen on both countries. It also worked perfectly in V5 before the update I just did to add TE NC. After this update I simply note (see screen above) that central did not update the autogen file and I think the problem is with the autogen file. But why no update because as you say every time you run Orbx Central it has to overwrite the autogen folder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlosqr Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Hi Thank you for the explanation I was not aware of that feature, this multiple definition of autogen, but I suspect is the one Michael ( PMB) was referring to in his post I'll follow this post as I don't have yet v5 either and to know about the solution interests me Regards, Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlsaghaa Posted June 24, 2020 Author Share Posted June 24, 2020 Problem solved! A friend suggested me to remove the Orbx library via Central and reinstall it. This caused the autogen to be updated ... This is now ok for both Orbx and France VFR scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Merowinger Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Good morning Carlos, could you be so kind giving a link to the thread with "multiple definition of autogen" or maybe you can explain what to do you here and does it have the same benefit like using the ACM-tool? I understand that sceneries with an autogen-Folder, in which they declare their own autogen via an own default.xml or some spb-files can set an entry in the autogen.cfg. But how does it work if more than one scenery putting their entries in this config-file? Will only the first entry be active, or the others too, like ACM does?

carlosqr Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Hello Kai Sorry for my late reply, just saw this I don't have this "multiple definition of autogen" it seems is within P3D....but I'm not familiar to it. "The multiple definition of autogen is based on the use of the Autogen.cfg file which is located in the LM folder in ProgramData. " As mentioned by Jlsagha above What I use is the ACM too as you do Cheers Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Merowinger Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Right you are, it works fine. Kai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
