Ozflyer Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Since I can't get FTX Blue to work I wish to uninstall and then reload. The mode button doesn't work (one of the problems) so I plan to disable in FSX then shut down and restart before deleting the scenery areas, is that ok ? Also I have an area FTX 05 ROADS which you don't mention in your uninstall procedure, I assume I delete this also ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Venema Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Also I have an area FTX 05 ROADS which you don't mention in your uninstall procedure, I assume I delete this also ?? Correct, anything with FTX in front of it. In fact, if you are doing a complete re-install of FTX after removing all the scenery library entries, just delete the entire ORBX folder.

Ozflyer Posted November 20, 2008 Author Share Posted November 20, 2008 I have completed a re installation but still have the problems I outlined in my Forum request for help - "Missing roads and can't turn off FTX Blue" - made on 6 Nov. I have had no help on my request, what do you suggest I try next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skulleader Posted October 26, 2009 Share Posted October 26, 2009 Hell John, A great thank's for your explanations and your help. In your post you talk only of Au Gold, Au Green, Au Blue but you do not explain entries for Au Red.... If it's possible you could give us entries for To Au Red ? A great thank's for all and best regards. Olivier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RonL Posted December 24, 2009 Share Posted December 24, 2009 John, I have removed FTX per your instructions. As you can see from the GPS, I should be over water when in fact it appears I am over the desert. The blocky sand textures are something I don't expererience either. I have no inland water at all now. This shot is leaving San Diego, Californina as I have moved back to flying in the USA. I have tried everything with no results. Can you help? Thank you in advance.

Holger Sandmann Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Hi Ron, if you're using Ultimate Terrain USA run its configuration tool (just opening and then closing it again should do) and that should return the water bodies. If you have several UTX packages repeat the same with the others. Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RonL Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Thank you very much Holger. That did the trick. I am forever grateful and cheers to you Sir. Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Breez Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Hello everyone, This is my first time here. I need to uninstall FTX SP3, nothing wrong with it, I am just trying to tune FSX :'( I cannot see Orbx/FTX in the add/remove programe list and no information in instructions slip that came with the disc. Would someone be kind enough to post instructions please. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Mason Posted December 29, 2009 Share Posted December 29, 2009 Breez, The instructions listed here are not done in the add/remove programs control panel, they are referring to the FSX scenery folders inside FSX and in your computers root folders, to find the folders you should be able to click "computer" from your start menu then go to whatever your primary drive is, for me it's in c:\program files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator X, thats where you will find the Orbx root files to remove not in your add/remove programs.

PFS Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 MY problem with FTX/FSX started when I installed the PATCH for YCDR that was recently released. After installing the patch, FSX would not boot up at all. I moved my whole ORBX folder to my desktop, and then I can get FSX to start, yet it notifies me that ORBX stuff can't be found. So, I can't "uninstall" per the instructions at the top of this thread, since I can't get FSX to boot up if the ORBX folder is present within the main Flight Simulator folder. I'll continue to work on the problem, but... Has anyone else had a problem with this patch? Regards, PFS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFS Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 "FTX Mode" Hmmm... I don't have an "FTX Mode/green" icon on my desktop, nor do I have one under the Start button. Or anything called "Mode" under any Orbx menu. I have "FTX Central" and an "FTX Aero" icons... Where does one find an Orbx icon or menu item that includes the word "Mode"?

peterd Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 When trying to start the program FTX Central, I get a message... "Unhandled Exception has occurred..... C:\Prgram Files\Microsoft Games\Microsift Flight Simulator\X\ORBX\Scripts\FTXCentral\Work\Images\btnPDF_Off.png. John I am unable to open FTX central to even start the un-install process. Any ideas?

peterd Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 John after removing the ORBX folder from the FSX root folder, do we remove every FTX file in the FTX root file? for example files such as... 'fx_Orbx_light_Yellow.fx' Thanks Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
