ACTIVE Several FTX Global / FTX Central / Scenery problems

ea.wouters · March 2, 2015

Hi

I'm a proud owner of FTX Global , FTX Global Vector, FTX OLC. This week I downloaded and installed all patches and freeware ORBX files (in the right order, at least I think). As a result there are 3 problems to solve:

Problem 1.

When starting FTX Central I receive the message 'Custom Files Validation Report'

Custom file does not exist.
D:\FSX10\ORBX\Scripts\Custom.gb_base\BLDA3.BMP

Custom file does not exist.
D:\FSX10\ORBX\Scripts\Custom.gb_base\BLDA3LM.BMP

Custom file does not exist.
D:\FSX10\ORBX\Scripts\Custom.gb_base\BLDB2.dds

Custom file does not exist.
D:\FSX10\ORBX\Scripts\Custom.gb_base\BLDB2LM.dds

Custom file does not exist.
D:\FSX10\ORBX\Scripts\Custom.gb_base\BLDB3.BMP

Custom file does not exist.

........

Yes the BMP files etc. aren't in the directory so the message is correct. Those files are in the folder 'custom.gb_hybrid'.

Problem 2:

Looking at the scenery files there are a lot of autogen objects missing, instead you get a black kind of crosses/boxes.

Problem 3:

Selecting in FTX Central the 'Hybrid mode' results in a crash with the error message below, selecting 'Continue' will close FTX Central. :

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Hi, Welcome!

First, Please add your product order numbers to your signature as per forum rules.

http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/1157-important-notice-please-add-your-order-to-your-sig-for-support/

Then download and install the latest libs that you will find at the bottom of the support links page.

https://www.fullterrain.com/support

Hopefully that will clear up a few of your above problems to start.

Cheers

Doug

ea.wouters · March 3, 2015

Hi Doug, thanks, I hope this will do, couldn't find the product code and I still have to find out where I bought OLC. I will start again/check the downloads (already downloaded them), any order to follow when installing the updates?

ea.wouters · March 3, 2015

Hi Doug, thanks, I hope this will do, couldn't find the product code and I still have to find out where I bought OLC. I will start again/check the downloads (already downloaded them), any order to follow when installing the updates?

Checked have them all downloads installed

ea.wouters · March 4, 2015

Stil have me problems, should I re-install everything?

Doug Sawatzky · March 5, 2015

Hi

No, reinstalling will probably not solve your issues. Providing tons more info would be very helpful tho.... Did you read the product manuals?

Which flight sim are you using? FSX?

Do you have a Vector icon on your desktop?

Does FTX Central open after all the errors? If so, could you check and please post a screenshot of the product installed report by clicking on "Tools/Reports/FTX Products Installed"

Does your flight sim start and run?

Did you have a good running flight sim before you installed the Orbx products?

Is your Windows fully up to date?

Here is a link that shows how to post a screenshot:

Cheers

ea.wouters · March 5, 2015

Hi Doug

I uninstalled ORBX, 1 problem is solved (black boxes / autogen) by placing the backupfiles back (Texture/scenery) I will re-install the products while using the manuals/forum advise and we will see what happens. (Problems remain/solved)

Which flight sim are you using? FSX?

- FSX

Do you have a Vector icon on your desktop?

- Have to check this one

Does FTX Central open after all the errors? If so, could you check and please post a screenshot of the product installed report by clicking on "Tools/Reports/FTX Products Installed"

- FTX opens first (wih message missing files), errors appear later,

Does your flight sim start and run?

- Yes

Did you have a good running flight sim before you installed the Orbx products?

- Yes and afterwards also, it happend when using the patches

Is your Windows fully up to date?

- Yes 100%

Hi Eric

Not sure what you mean by your words that are in brackets at the end of this sentence that I put in bold? "I uninstalled ORBX, 1 problem is solved (black boxes / autogen) by placing the backupfiles back (Texture/scenery) I will re-install the products while using the manuals/forum advise and we will see what happens. (Problems remain/solved)"??

Do you have the DX10 box checked in your FSX? If so uncheck it (this would cause your black boxes and crashing issue)...using DX10 mode is a whole different animal and requires the use of "Steves Fixer"

FTX Global base is at version 1.30 and the new download does not require any patches.

FTX Vector is at version 1.20 and the new download does not require any patches.

Also, I hope you have seen this:

ea.wouters · March 5, 2015

^{Hi Doug,}

^{I meant going back to the basic FSX and start all over, I wanted to rule out other possibilities.}
^{- DX10 is unchecked}
^{- Downloaded and installed latest version 1.30}
^{- Reading the manual, didn't knew that this existed. Before I posted I did a forum search but didn't find a solution}
^{- I removed all ORBX files and restored the default FSX ones via a Backup}
^{- Tested FSX and my problem (see picture) was gone, installed FTX Global 1.30 and it was back again, didn't installed FTX Vector I would like to solve this problem (black objects) first}

^{Best regards}

Doug Sawatzky · March 6, 2015

Hi Eric

Is your FSX with SP2 or Acceleration? and did you reinstall the latest libs after installing Global?

Doug

Doug Sawatzky · March 6, 2015

Hey Eric

Check this out:

http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/93700-ftx-central-error/#entry851640

ea.wouters · March 6, 2015

Hi Doug,

I have installed lib. ORBXlibs_150215 and downloaded the latent global version. Installed it, no change. Installed The workfiles in the script folder, no change. Then I noticed the following. I had FSX Acceleration but the splashscreen was Ã default one. I repaired this by using THE FSX Acceleration setup repair option.

I guess I have to reinstall ORBX again, then the libaryupdate an possibly the workfiles again?

Best regards and tanks for all help

Eric

ea.wouters · March 6, 2015

Do i have to use a separate installer? If do where van i find it? I hope that the correct installer is within the latest download.

Doug Sawatzky · March 6, 2015

The latest FTX Global download will have the correct installers. Does your FSX splash screen now show as Acceleration?

ea.wouters · March 6, 2015

No my spashscreen is the same, not the acceleration one.

Doug Sawatzky · March 6, 2015

Sounds like there is something wrong with your FSX install then, FSX with SP2 or Acceleration is a minimum requirement. I would highly recommend using the procedure in this attached link and reinstall FSX, and do not install it in the default location but rather a newly created folder called FSX.

http://support.precisionmanuals.com/kb/a87/how-to-uninstall-and-reinstall-fsx.aspx

Also, here is a ton of info that might be helpful for you....it sure was for me lol )

http://www.simforums.com/forums/the-fsx-computer-system-the-bible-by-nickn_topic46211.html

ea.wouters · March 7, 2015

Hi Doug yes and no. Yes something is wrong. No I Will nor re-install FSX again. I recent have done this step. I would like to knew the cause of all this. Else I'm in a loop and Will never fly. After i uninstalled an reinstalled only acceleration the problem of misging objects in FTXG where gone. As a happy man I installed VECTOR and the problem is back but now back. I mean hearby misging objects in a line.

FSX installed in a different folder on the root of the SSD drive. I Will post a new image later and perhaps a new error I had after installing VECTOR

I'm no rookie and already read tons of info. )

Doug Sawatzky · March 7, 2015

Hi Eric

Ok..sorry I am not very helpful, I wish you good luck, and surely someone far more knowledgable than me will join in....)

Cheers

Doug

ea.wouters · March 7, 2015

Hi Doug,

sorry if I have been hurting your feelings, didnt ment to (my Englisch writing could also use an update). You have been quite helpfull, like directing me to other leeds. I really appreciatie it. I have been collecting knowledge and best practices and translate them to an personal guide. You can' read experiance from a face.

I have made an full Back-up I can use as a new starterspoint, Acceleration should werk fine. Perhaps the problem lies in Microsoft .net feamework? By the way I keep a knowledgebase of all errors that occurs whith the solution regarding my dedicated flightsim pc. I hope I can figure this one out and add it as a solution.

Thanks for you're help. (By the way a friend of me lives a few 100 km from you in Mission DC. you live in a wunderfull country.)

Doug Sawatzky · March 7, 2015

Hi Eric

Lol! No worries and no hurt feelings ....I am sure it will all work out.

Yes, Mission B.C is a beautiful place.

Cheers

Doug

ea.wouters · March 10, 2015

Hi Doug,

I took a deep breath a started from scratch. Win7 installed (clean with all updates) Then FSX and FSX Acceleration (after each installation I run FSX) . then FTX Global (no problem) then FTX Vector (problem, error below). Any idea? (Text contains a little bit Dutch)

Update:

The solution is 2 create 2 folders (FTX_VECTOR_AEC and FTX_VECTOR_APT) within the 'FTX_Vector' folder before you install the product. Then everything works fine, at least I head no error messages. My question: both folders are empty, is this normal?

Best regards Eric

Hi Eric

I do not know the answer to your question, but here is what my Vector Folder looks like, and the folders are full of files.

And just as an FYI, maybe you would prefer posting in the Dutch section of the forum, although I think your English is great ) I am very surprised that no one else has any ideas on your issue lol

Hi,

The final solution to get the Vector work right is: either procedure - is a pain I know, but it must be done!

you go on the support: https//fullterrain.com/support

and download these two patch - the Vector v1.5 and v2.0 - must to apply the two "patches"! ;

or

you download and install the new Vector brand v1.20 that is in your account in FSS!

Cheers,

Hi the problem occurs when installing the new Vector brand v1.20 that i downloaded from FSS!

Voyager · March 12, 2015

Hi again,

Then follow the first hypothesis, it was with it that we get rid of this issue.

Install the patches on top of what is already installed!

As I said is suffering, but information coming from the staff responsible for Vector are confusing. :banghead:

Good luck mate!

Cheers,

PS: And, please, don't forget to click on FTX GLOBAL Vector Configuration Tool, "AEC" "run auto-configuration" tab, for it to proceed the airports registration.

ea.wouters · March 13, 2015

Hi Voyager,

Thans, maby it is solved, using THE patch 1.5 like stated in The Dutch forum Doug pointed me to. I have files in Boch folders. Hoe many Should there be in each folder?

Thans for all support all.
