ACTIVE Where does the terrain.dll for FTX Central

[JoseCFII]

I was having an issue with ASN and my L-39 and had to do reset.

 

Now every time I apply the new ftx central I lose my vector lights.

 

I have the original backed up and I now have to use it to replace the main FSX terrain.dll.

 

Which is the terrain.dll that is being used by central when I apply Global & Hybrid mode?

 

That's the one that is disabling my vector lights.

 

Thanks.

Hi Jose,

 

I believe you're referring to the terrain.cfg file. It's what contains the custom entries for vector lights and other features and the active version resides in the main FSX folder.

Hi Holger,

 

I have a back up of that terrain file and I'm able to replace it.

 

But, when I apply the FTX Global region my vector lights do not show up.

 

I can't get the vector lights back on unless I apply my backup to the main fsx folder.

 

I'm trying to find out why is this happening?

Hi Jose,

 

probably an obvious point but I assume you've ticked the "Use vector road lights" checkbox in the Settings > Scenery tab? If so perhaps the issue is related to this one here -- http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/96101-ftx-lights-with-ftx-central-v2/-- except yours are "stuck" in the deactivated state.

What can I do to keep them on?

I fixed my problem by reinstalling FTXORBXLIBS_150215. I applied FTX Global & vector lights. Checked the sim and everything looked good.

 

Then I opened FTX Central 2 and I let the ap download and install the updates. It works perfectly now.

 

I'm so glad that I kept backups of the old Libs.
