MattyChays Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Good Afternoon, I reformatted my PC and I am doing a clean install of P3D V2 and I am curious what order I should install the Orbx Products I own to capture the best results. I own: PNW England Ireland Global Thanks for the help! -Matthew Chase HC-130H Pilot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Goff Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Hi Matthew, Here's a quick guide on installation order: http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/31552-installation-instructions-for-orbx-regions/ It doesn't include more recent products so an abridged install guide would be: PNW + all available patches (a new installer is rolling out soon that will contain all previous patches) England + all available patches Ireland + all available patches Global + all available patches Then finally install the latest libraries available on the support page: http://www.fullterrain.com/support.html Regards, Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickinferno Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Hey Alex, If I have all the scenery from ORBX, would I start with Australia regions then go North America regions, then England, Ireland regions, then all the airports, then FTX Global, FTX Vectors finish off with Librairies?

Alex Goff Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Correct! That should do it, that reminds me to get around to updating the install guide... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cassis87 Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 and if I started by FSX->FTX Global->FTX Vector, then is it ok to continue with the regions ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickinferno Posted January 16, 2014 Share Posted January 16, 2014 Concerning HOLGERMESH, where does his priority go in FSX scenery? does it go on top of all ORBX scenery or under? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptnToni Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Concerning HOLGERMESH, where does his priority go in FSX scenery? does it go on top of all ORBX scenery or under? Leave it where the installer places it to. Its just fine on top of all other Orbx-Entries. My question is, if I have to switch to "Default" (FSX) or to a specific scenery (PNW) whenever I want to install the libraries? What I understood so far (and missed in the Howto's): Switch to Default: install scenery and library Switch to Scenery: install patches and specific airports for that scenery Am I right?

Maurizio Giorgi Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 and if I started by FSX->FTX Global->FTX Vector, then is it ok to continue with the regions ? Yes, it is, FTXG, Vector or 2010 FTX mesh can be installed at any moments. Leave it where the installer places it to. Its just fine on top of all other Orbx-Entries. My question is, if I have to switch to "Default" (FSX) or to a specific scenery (PNW) whenever I want to install the libraries? What I understood so far (and missed in the Howto's): Switch to Default: install scenery and library Switch to Scenery: install patches and specific airports for that scenery Am I right? You can install orbxlibs at any moments, it's not relevant how FTX central is set. To check which version of libs (or any other ORBX scenery) you have installed please use the tool inside FTX central Tool -> report Orbx product installed, so you can compare with the latest available orbxlibs and see if you have to upgrade.

CaptnToni Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Thank you Maurizio for the prompt reply! Very interesting, 'cause there are so many - quite different - hints out there in the forums..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickinferno Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 I just noticed that ORBX Vector is under my FS Global 2010 Mesh in my scenery settings that ok? Also have ORBX Vector_AEC under 0000Base ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurizio Giorgi Posted February 11, 2014 Share Posted February 11, 2014 Yes Rick, it's correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WR269 Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Question on this topic...do I have to set FTX Central to Oceania when installing an Aussie Airport, then Global when installing anything else? or can I leave Central in Global mode and install Aussie and American airports?

Maurizio Giorgi Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Hi WR, when you install a region, Vector or the 2010 mesh set FTX central on Global and when you install an airport you have to set the correct region to which the airport belongs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
