Hi everyone,yes it's the silly old man again. Could someone help me please with this problem? When I start FSX I get this message every time:Scenery.CFG file error. Invalid Remote scenery path in scenery Area.121Please be gentle if you reply to this please. Computers and me do not mix. That's a fact, honestly. I'll follow simple fixes but more difficult, I can't.Thanks in advance,britpol

It indicates you removed a scenery that was located in Area 121 in your scenery.cfg and it is no longer there. Here's a recent post here at AVSIM regarding this error: http://forum.avsim.net/topic/348758-scenerycfg-file-error-area-126/.Best regards,Jim

Thank you very much Jim for the info. Trouble is I really haven't knowingly deleted anything.britpol (les)

Hi again Jim,I noted the fix was for Vista 32 system. Where can I get the one for Windows 7 64 bit?And if I get the fix, do I just 'paste' it into the mentioned folder?Sorry to trouble everyone again,britpol (Les)

The utility in that link I provided will NOT work for Windows 7 64 bit or FSX. The easiest method for me is to edit the scenery.cfg. Open up the scenery.cfg which is located in the C:/Program Data/Microsoft/FSX folder. Once open, look for Area.121 and delete it. Renumber the Areas next down so that everything will be in numerical sequence (hopefully Area.121 will be the last one in the scenery.cfg). Area/Layers should be the same for each scenery. Save the scenery.cfg and restart FSX. Problem gone.Best regards,Jim

Hi JimThank you so much for the help. I've checked the scenery.cfg file and there is no Area.121. Area.120 is the last. I've also checked if there is a break in continuity of the numbers. There is none.Do you think I should do a reinstall? I hope not because I had so many problems installing.Thank you,Les

<p>Hi again everyone,</p><p>Maybe it would help to post my 'scenery.cfg' file for perusal so here it is.</p><p>I really can't thank everyone who has offered advice

Hi JimThank you so much for the help. I've checked the scenery.cfg file and there is no Area.121. Area.120 is the last. I've also checked if there is a break in continuity of the numbers. There is none.Do you think I should do a reinstall? I hope not because I had so many problems installing.Thank you,Les

Are you sure you are looking at the 'working' scenery.cfg? There is a scenery.cfg in the same folder as where fsx.cfg is located but it does nothing, absolutely nothing but sit there. However, I've been told not to delete it. The scenery.cfg you posted above appears to be the non-working scenery.cfg. The working scenery.cfg is located in the C:/Program Data/Microsoft/FSX folder as I mentioned above. There HAS to be at least an Area.121 otherwise it would have been impossible to get the error in the OP. Best regards,Jim

Hi Jim,well I think I have beaten this this at last. I had many 'scenery.cfg' files to check. In the end I decided to choose which one I thought was one of the last created, not sure though, and moved the rest to a new folder. Then I made sure that Area.121 had been removed. Started FSX and bang no problem.Jim you are a star my friend and I really thank you.Merry Xmas and a wonderful New Year.Les

Hi Les,Glad you got it finally fixed. For your information, I just saw on the front page of AVSIM a program called SceneryConfigEditor v1.1.0 which will check your scenery.cfg and fix it if there are problems. You might want to download it from the AVSIM Library for the future.Best regards,Jim

Hi Jim,This will be the last time I bother you my friend.I downloaded the configering tool and I was able to edit one area. It was clear to see when compared to the others. However, when I selcted the 'list' view.... bad news. I have 220 areas but 190 have errors. Tried to read the manual but it's not clear for me as a person who is completely computer illiterate. As a result, many, many errors I can't fix with or without the program. It's way over my head. Therefore, I think it's time to uninstall and give up. I was hoping to get into it now I've retired but it's not to be. Obviously FSX has to be running correctly to work properly and it is not. I really do not know what to do now. I've bought a lot of stuff too. Best not to ask who much in front of my wife. But I refuse to keep on bothering folk. That's not me.So thanks Jim for all your help my friend.Best wishes,Les

SceneryConfigEditor is a nice program, though I think it might declare "errors" that are more strict than really needed. There's another util, FSTScenery.exe, that can re-write your scenery.cfg into an ordered list (so layer number and scenery area are equal and ordered) and I think that probably clears up some of the errors SceneryConfigEditor reports.scott s..

SceneryConfigEditor will also fix all the area/layer errors. It is a very powerful application if you learn all the tools it includes.

Hi Scott and BAW303,Thanks for the contact and advice. I've tried to use both programs you suggested but without success. There is absolutely nothing changed at all and I have looked carefully. Trouble is too that I am older and as such, I have problems with programs and things. I can't even find a list of jobs to do in a plan so I can set up my Cyborge f.l.y. 5 joystick. Do you know of a list of button/key assignments?But back to the other problem... I really don't know what to do to solve things. I can't put the list of faults on here because they can't be copied unless I do a screen print. I asked the Polish people on their sim forum for help. No go there. Not even a guy who lives in the next block of flats would come and look. And I offered to pay too. Typical Poles. I can say that because I've lived here 14 years. Hopefully we're off to Costa Rica next year. My wife teachs English and a university wants her.Is the a private message thing here. Maybe I could give my mail address on it so as to send the list for someone to look at.So thanks guys,Helpful you are,Les

Les,Check your PM's.
