I just added some scenery to my library, the seasons of my vero Fs photoscenery, and on closing the library got an error message referring to an " invalid remote scenery path in area 152" . Can anyone say what this is and or how to rectify? cheers, Mark

Helloopen your scenery.cfg and see what is at area 152, then correct the path to that scenery.Path to the correct scenery.cfg is (assuming you are on W7)C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX\Here is an example of Aerosoft SION , notice the Local= line is the path on disk relative to your flightsim folder.Just point that Local= line to the correct location[Area.120]Title=FlyLogic_APT_Sion_LSGSActive=TRUELayer=120Required=FALSELocal=Addon Scenery\FlyLogic_KFP\APT_Sion_LSGS

Hi Mad dog, I am having trouble getting to that path - in my old vista install, the scenery .cfg file was in the same place as the FSX .cfg file, ( Mark/app data/roaming/microsoft/fsx) but I cant see it there on win7, my new system. Despite having turned off UAC, the path you describe , I cannot get to, as the application data is a shortcut and it wont let me click it..... Do you know a way to get round this?Cheers, Mark

You can search for it - being sure you have invoked the "search hidden files and folders" option.Applicata data (or however it is named) - is a hidden folder.

In Microsoft's ever-changing game of "find the cfg", it's now placed in "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX" in Windows 7. Try looking for it there.

Mark, all...Scenery is for All Users or just the installing user depending on how it was installed...When you install for "all" the scenery goes here:C:\Users\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX\Scenery.CFGI presume if you install just for yourself then it would be...C:\Users\<username>\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX\Scenery.CFGMark, get this new system together... you've been fighting it a long time now.Loyd
