johnlattanzio Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Hi All I have this problem when I try to use FTX central. I get this message about terrain.cfg has no landclass section. It means that FSX crashes (when at 69% loaded, as far as I can tell). Can someone help me? John L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnlattanzio Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 Sorry - it is in the subjec, The entire message is: terrain.cfg has no landlclass section When I looked, the terrain file was empty! Now I cannot start FSX at all (!) it ays that there is no scenery.cfg file and I should uninstall and reinstal FSX.... There is in fact a scenery.cfg file In desperation to avoid a reinstall I copied a terrain.cfg and scenery.cfg from another installation. I get the same " no scenery.cfg" message. I am thinking I have to do a reinstall ( But I have *hundreds* of addoins ( ( JL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Harris Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Hi John, not sure if the issue is the Scenery.cfg or Terrain.cfg The active Scenery.cfg is in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX, there should be a couple of backed-up version there you can try, otherwise you can delete it, and it will rebuild (cycle FTXcentral to re-add your Orbx products automatically) The active Terrain.cfg is located within your main FSX folder, I attached a default copy of the Terrain.cfg below you can try... cycle FTXcentral after replacing terrain.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnlattanzio Posted September 30, 2013 Author Share Posted September 30, 2013 Hi John, not sure if the issue is the Scenery.cfg or Terrain.cfg Hi Tim it used to object to terrain.cfg and loading stopped at 69% with a crash. NOw it does not even start loading and says FSX cannot run without a scenery,cfg file. But...ther eis one in the top FSX directory! The active Scenery.cfg is in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX, there should be a couple of backed-up version there you can try, otherwise you can delete it, and it will rebuild (cycle FTXcentral to re-add your Orbx products automatically) OK I will try that! Thanks! The active Terrain.cfg is located within your main FSX folder, I attached a default copy of the Terrain.cfg below you can try... cycle FTXcentral after replacing Thanks again! I will try this ) JL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Neave Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 I just had the same issue. Replacing the Terrain.cfg file with the one provided fixed my Landclass issue and I no longer get the error message 'Terrain had no [LandClasses] section' Thanks Tim!

raymar99 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Thanks Tim, It did not fix mine but I have no way of knowing how different our terrain.cfg files are. Can you send me a link for a download for a replacement terrain.cfg file? Regards, Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Hi Ray, the link in Tim's post above is still working but there's also a backup of the FSX original in the \ORBX\Scripts\FTXCentral\Work folder. After replacing the corrupt copy you need to cycle FTX Central at least once between regions (doesn't matter which) to re-insert the FTX custom entries. Also, if you own other add-ons that require custom entries, like Ultimate Terrain or FSAddon, you'll need to run their setup tools or repair options as well.
