GroovyMotion Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Have the same issue with CYXC and since my reinstall, everytime I would add a scenery and then install the libs I would get this message: It also gives me this message when I try to switch regions in FTX Central Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Harris Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Hi Jean, Means you have a duplicate file Browse to F:\FSX\Scenery\World\Scenery Look for a file called: ADE_FTX_NZSI_NZAS_elevation_adjustment.BGL Rename it to ADE_FTX_NZSI_NZAS_elevation_adjustment.OFF (Or vice-versa) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a boatload of NZSI and PNW that have the .OFF...should I delete all the .OFF? Sorry for the dupe thread, I thought since the other one was resolved that it didn't go through. But I do have the elevation issue at Cranbrook as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Harris Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Which postiion is FTXcentral in? The elevation adjustment files are meant to be .BGLs when in a region mode like [North America], [Oceania] or [Global with hybrid mode], and .OFFs when in [Default/Global] If a region servicepatch is installed when not set to the correct region, it can sometimes cause this issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroovyMotion Posted January 4, 2014 Author Share Posted January 4, 2014 Central is in the North America position but sometimes it switches to default when installing another region or service pack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than scrap FSX and restart from scratch I renamed the ADE_FTX_NZSI_NZAS_elevation_adjustment.BGL to .BAK because I already had an ADE_FTX_NZSI_NZAS_elevation_adjustment.BGL.OFF but then after that it moves to another file that has the same issue...and so on! So I am basically screwed now? Disregard, I just deleted the whole Orbx folder and will reinstall everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Harris Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Hi mate, sorry about that, I have lots of family and mothers/step-mothers roaming around the house on holidays........ Just reinstalling my own regions so I can give you firsthand directions, but I see you have reinstalled To prevent this happening again, always check you are set to the correct region before installing any region servicepacks, I understand Ed is adding a feature in the new installers that forces FTXcentral to the correct setting, more on that later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
