rockliffe Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Hi Zoran, while you're waiting for some help from one of the support team, perhaps I could offer some advice. First, if you have done a Win update without any intervention then it is likely to have updated your video driver and in doing so possibly damaged/changed the registry. If you ever do an update never let the update change drivers, always do this manually and separately. As for this issue I would suggest a system restore. I know some guys don't like doing this, but in all the years I have used this method, it has never been a problem. As for the original issue with the cliffs, I would say two things, first install the latest libraries as it could be a problem and second, most likely it is a conflict with your FS Genesis Mesh. I'm afraid when using third party mesh, this is something that will cause issues at some airports I'm afraid. The only way round it is to change the elevation of the airprort using a programme such as Airport Design Editor or switch off the mesh. As I say, one of the gurus may endorse my advice or may well have some alternative suggestions. I hope you get it sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venturi Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 Thanks Howard, but something really odd happened when I went to check on jackson hole and it wasn't there either and the region was set to NA. All of this happened after updating patches all morning Then after a restart it started crashing. The fact that jackson hole was suddenly missing leads me to beleive its not fs genesis as I never had problems with it before. Already did a systems restore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockliffe Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Have you tried switching FTX central to default and then back to US? I think one of the gurus will have to help out as other than my original suggestions I'm unsure how to proceed. BTW is KJAC in the scenery library? If not, have you tried adding it manually?

Wolter van der Spoel Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 Hi there,sorry to hear of your woes, if the issues started after you installed all updates and patches from MS, then probably it would be better to a system restore to the situation before those patches where applied,also and please don't get me wrong, make it a habit that when you update the OS to never ever run something else and after the thing is finished to do a cold reboot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howard you legend, default did the trick! I never would have thought of that Wolter, I meant patching ORBX as I bought a lot of DVD's last week. It was after patching ORBX that it started crashing. Its still crashing but only when its switched to US Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolter van der Spoel Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 ok, just to make sure, what is not working correctly ? make it a rule of thumb before installing FTX addons / updates to a region set FTX Central to that region and hit Apply, when installing outside a region set FTX Central to FTX Global un-tick all 3 checkboxes and hit apply make sure your fsX install is exempt from your AV program as those really can create havoc by deleting files and not even mentioning it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venturi Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 I screwed up there Wolter, after 7 days of non stop downloading to re install FSX I was on Auto pilot when applying orbx patches and didnt set the switches to default. After I realised this I re patched again setting the correct regions but now only FTX default will boot FSX. I dont understand this "make sure your fsX install is exempt from your AV program" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolter van der Spoel Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 sorry, let me rephrase that, make sure that your fsX install is excluded from being constantly scanned by your Anti Virus scanner / program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venturi Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 A bit late for that its all done now , I have Avira payware and I reckon even the devs at orbx would struggle with trying to set up exclusion on that one apart from this minor glitch performance is stunning! will I need to reinstall ORBX? FTX central is buggy and not working out of default Its not a big deal as I have all of ORBX downloads saved, but still I would rather find an easy fix if there is one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolter van der Spoel Posted August 15, 2013 Share Posted August 15, 2013 no worries the PAKT elevation issue seems like not active bgl file, please have a look in your ....\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Scenery\World\Scenery folder and check when FTX Central is set to NA that all files that are named: ADE_FTX_CRM_XXX_elevation_adjustment ADE_FTX_NRM_XXX_elevation_adjustment ADE_FTX_PFJ_XXX_elevation_adjustment ADE_FTX_PNW_XXX_elevation_adjustment ADE_FTX_SAK_XXX_elevation_adjustment have a .BGL extension, if not, then rightclick and rename them, if by any chance you have installed the RTMM files for PAKT if my memory serves me correct there was also a file that needed to be added to work correctly with PAKT from the RTMM guys. please make darned sure that you don't have double files with both the .OFF extension and .BGL extension, if that's the case then delete all the ones with the same prefix that have the .OFF extension, careful to NOT delete any other files than the ones I mentioned previously if the FTX Central install is flunked then please let me know what the exact error message is so I can advise accordingly what to be the next steps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venturi Posted August 15, 2013 Author Share Posted August 15, 2013 All files are BGL and no double ups and no RTMM. FTX central works BUT FSX crashes when FTX is NOT in the default postion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
