RESOLVED Messed up object placement at KSFF with FTX Global and AI traffic

[corkery]

I made my first visit to KSFF after installing FTX Global with FTX central set to America.  I was parked halfway into a building on a designated parking slot at startup and was met with objects in the taxiways as below.

 

 

All was working with all current patches applied before i installed FTX Global

G'day Tony,

 

At first glance this looks like it may be a case of clashing APX files. A couple of quick questions to troubleshoot:

 

1. Do you have our NRM region installed or only Global/KSFF?

2. Do you have any other scenery packages that may cause a potential clash with KSFF? Aside from any Spokane area-specific add-ons, many payware AI packages include APX's that will cause clashes. 

 

Cheers,

Jarrad

I do have NRM installed and patched. It was working before FTX Global as I had:

 

Installed NRM

Installed KSFF

Patched NRM

Re-applied OrbxLibs

 

The only thing I have installed since the above is FTX Global and UTX USA. I don't believe the latter has anything to do with APX files?

[Wolter van der Spoel]

Did you install UTX after FTX Global ?

or the other way around, first UTX and then FTX Global ?

[corkery]

I installed UTX after FTX global

G'day Tony,

 

Can you try this and see if it solves the issue:

 

1. Set your FTX Central to North America

2. Re-run your NRM installer

3. Re-run the KSFF installer.

 

Let me know how this goes.

 

Cheers,

Jarrad

to add to Jarrad's post,

 

also install the latest library files last available at the support page => http://fullterrain.com/support.html

and consider this advice from Holger

if you own any of the Ultimate Terrain X add-ons you need to run their Setup tools, in the respective \Flight One Software\UT... folders, to have their custom terrain.cfg entries re-inserted. Simply starting each UTSetup.exe in turn (if you have more than one of their products) and then shutting them down again once the initial check-up messages have completed, will do the trick.

 

Cheers, Holger

Right, I have:

 

Re-installed NRM and patched

Re-installed KSFF

Installed latest OrbLib files

Re-run the UTX USA set-up utility

 

and.... I still get this

 

 

Orbx have inadvertently invented a new game of FSX Jenga )

[Wolter van der Spoel]

I am seeing two airfields competing for the same spot there ?

 

so you must have some other scenery calling for the same spot there only slightly out of wack and as you are very informative as to where I'm not going to guess at it

[corkery]

Finally found the issue! As part of the setup after FTX Global I made sure the FTX insertion point was low in the scenery list to avoid conflicts with UTX BUT, I set it below MyTraffic which must be the lowest in the list. Reset the insertion point above MyTraffic and Voila!

 

Please mark this as resolved.
