pmcoz Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 I apologise for this question. I did peruse the FAQ (especially http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/31552-installation-instructions-for-orbx-regions/)and even the 'definitive guide', but couldn't find a complete answer... I need to reinstall all my FTX stuff (regions, airports, cityscapes, patches). I remain unclear about the appropriate FTX Central region setting that should be applied before each installation. I gather that regions should generally be installed from 'Default', whereas airports and cityscapes should be installed from the region to which they apply. Is this correct? And what about the patches and libraries? I'm a bit paranoid about this, because I've had it wrong before and totally destroyed my FSX installation. Thanks for any advice!

pmcoz Posted March 3, 2015 Author Share Posted March 3, 2015 Thanks—but I'm not sure that answers the question! So FTX Central should be on default for every installation? That would appear to contradict http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/31552-installation-instructions-for-orbx-regions/. Some installations seem to need non-default region settings, but the references are incomplete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolter van der Spoel Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 basically when installing an airfield FTX Central should be set to that region, installing, Global, Vector, OLC_EU, FTX Central should be set to default Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
