Lost a lot of airports!

Featured Replies

I think this happened last night when installing scenery, probably Netherlands 2000 or maybe Aerosoft Manhattan. Anyway, I noticed that I started getting low hard disk space warnings from XP (~200 MB free on C:). Next time I fired up FS2004, instead of my default flight starting at Heathrow, it listed Latitude/Longitude. Can't find many of the standard airports, only one State (Western Australia) is shown etc.I've since cleaned up the disk and freed a few GB, but I can't get my airports back! Any suggestions apart from a complete reinstall of FS2004?

Sounds like your scenery.cfg is pretty messed up. Do you have a backup you can restore? That's just one of many possibilities--usually in cases like this it takes so long to reason out an answer that it's generally easier to reinstall.You can also save your fs9.cfg as it is, reinstall, then restore your saved fs9.cfg so you don't lose any sim settings in the process.-John

Hi,If it is your scenery.cfg file that is messed up I have an idea you can try. Look in your 'Flight Simulator 9' folder and see if you have a file named... OldScenery.CFG. If you do then you could try renaming your scenery.cfg to something like scenery.cfg.bad. Then rename OldScenery.CFG --> to --> scenery.cfg, start FS9 and see what happens.Good luck,Jim

EXCELLENT!!!! Scenery.cfg.NL2000_backup did the trick!Thanks for that one.:-beerchug

Your're welcome for the tip and I'm happy to hear it pointed you in the right direction and in the end helped you out. Woot! I just gave a little addition to John Ci's lead was all. Thanks John. :-waveJim
