Ned Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 I bought Pacific North West and as far as I can see it works fine, except for KSEA. I have looked at a number of other airports and they seem ok. As was suggested to KPV922 I made sure that FTX Central is set to North America and in the scenery library I do have four checked entries for PNW. Also when I bought PNW a week ago, I downloaded Orbxlibs. The attached screen shot may help in seeing my problem. Tuke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted June 20, 2015 Share Posted June 20, 2015 Hi there, it's a bit difficult to see from the small image but it looks like your have a third-party file active for KSEA; see http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/99383-orbx-pnw-for-fsxse-not-displaying/?p=898897 I'd suggest running a Windows search of your entire FSX folder tree (including any external scenery locations you may have) for .bgl files that include KSEA as part of their names. The result should bring up those that are part of PNW: ADE_FTX_PNW_KSEA_Seattle-Tacoma_Intl.BGL ADE_FTX_PNW_KSEA_Seattle-Tacoma_Intl_CVX.bgl FTX_PNW_objects_KSEA_PLC.bgl FTX_PNW_objects_KSEA_BCN_PLC.bgl but anything else that comes up would be a potential culprit. If you're not sure post a screenshot or list of the search result with full file names and folder paths and we can help with further diagnosis.

Ned Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 Holger, Thank you for your reply. I am not very computer literate. To do the search, what would I type in? Would it be something like: *KSEA*.bgl? Also if some other file besides the ones you mention show up, would I delete them? Thank you, Tuke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 Hi Tuke, yes, *KSEA*.bgl will do the trick. Don't delete any files though. Post the names and paths of any files found that aren't the four files I listed and we'll take it from there. Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 Holger, I did the search that you suggested and see three files in addition to the four that you say should be there. They are: ABP_KSEA.bgl AEC_KSEA.bgl APT_KSEA.bgl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 Holger, Here is what I hope is a more visible screen shot of the search. Tuke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Posted June 22, 2015 Author Share Posted June 22, 2015 Holger, In case the screen shots are to small to read the paths. This is the path of all those files, the four that should be there and also the three others: C\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steammapps\Common\FS...

Nick Cooper Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 You should have another file, ABP_KSEA_Default.bgl which, if you searched the whole ORBX folder should be in ORBX\FTX_VECTOR\FTX_VECTOR_APT\scenery. I think that you may have installed Vector with the updates which had a problem, now resolved. Ideally, you should go to your FSS account and download Vector version 1.20. Then go to the ORBX folder and delete the whole FTX_VECTOR folder. When you have done this, install Vector again and when you have, run the Vector Configurator and disable AEC for KSEA. To check, set FTX Central to North America and a new search of the ORBX folder for KSEA should produce this result. By the way, I can't read either of your screen shots, I hope you can read this one.

Ned Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 Nick, Many thanks for your response and your help. I live 200 miles into the East African bush on the edge of the Serengeti and have a very slow cell phone based connection to the internet. I will be going to the main town of Arusha in a couple of weeks where there is a fast connection available and will then follow your instructions to solve the problem. Thank you again for your answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Posted June 26, 2015 Author Share Posted June 26, 2015 Nick, I have found ABP_KSEA_Default.bgl which is in ORBX\FTX_VECTOR\FTX_VECTOR_APT\scenery It is an inactive file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 That's excellent news. All you need to do then is run the Vector Configurator and add KSEA to the list of AEC Disabled airports on the right. Don't forget to click on Apply. Sounds like a wonderful place to live.
