Help with adding FS Global THe Ultimate Americas to my Scenery.cfg

Featured Replies

Hey guys!I bought this amazing Mesh package. THe problem is that I tried using Prepar3d, and then I lost the scenery.cfg with the correct directions to the FS Global Scenery Folders. I can't find any of my installed addons inside both scenery.cfg files from FSX folder and the User/App/etc folder. I feel stupid, where can I find those? And can anyone with this Mesh installed PLEASE show me your scenery.cfg so that I can use mine without the need of the over 3 hour installation with 6 DVDs that it takes.Thank you guys!

Try reinstalling FSGUA and take note of the default directory (then quit the installer). That's likely where the files ended up.Cheers,- jahman.

I know where they are, I just don't know what;s the correct order to add them to the Scenery Library.I don't understand why before I unistalled my FSX I couldn't find them in the scenery.cfg.

Well, that's what I had recommended:

Try reinstalling FSGUA and take note of the default directory (then quit the installer). That's likely where the files ended up.

I thought something was wrong with your setup because your local mesh part was on the bottom of the Global Ultimate layers, instead of the top.However in FSX higher Priority is lower Priority numbers.In the csx.cfg higher Priority is in higher Layer numbers.So you had it right, although it will be upsdie down in the FSX scenery library window, and the local mesh part will be on the top of Global Ultimate layers, which is correct in order to see the local mesh.

Can someone help..

Does FS Ultimate local meshes have to be higher than Americas LM..

Because if both Local meshes and Americad LM are active, AES says I have a conflict and will disable the one with lowest prilority ????

Chris,

 

Have a look at my Scenery.CFG, it may help.

I don't know what you mean by Americas LM.  Can you post a screenshot of the section or your Scenery.CFG with a notation beside the entry you are referring?

AES from Aerosoft says if both 101 and 105 is enabled it will be a conflict, and I have to disable the one with lowest priority

My meshes are above the continental regions in the scenery.cfg.  It looks like Area 101 and 105 are being called from the same location on your hard drive, that does not look right.
