GEX - FTX Question

Featured Replies

Greetings to all!  Glad to be back after some 4 or 5 yrs of being away from FSX.  (I even forgot my old AVSIM user-id/pwd so I created this new one).

 

With a newer rig, I recently decided to Re-Install FSX, go through ALL my old add-on collections, the tweaking, etc... and downloaded some newer add-ons from FTX - terrain and airports.

 

My question:  

During the installation, I installed FTX NA Blue first, BEFORE UTX/GEX-US-CAN. Needless to say, the GEX/UTX had over-written the FTX textures of the same area.  I noticed it   the moment I flew over an area covered by both GEX/FTX.  Now, Is there a way I could bring back the FTX textures without having to Re-Install it?  I like the FTX textures better than GEX.  I tried using the FTX Central to "Apply" the FTX North America but this didn't seem to bring back FTX textures.  Need your advice please.

 

Many thanks in advance.

 

 

 

 

Try to install FTX NA again. This should work. Otherwise I would askfor help in the the orbx forum.

Thanks Harry.   Done the FTX re-install and I got the textures back.  

You ALWAYS have to turn off FTX in the FTC Central before installing other scenery! Always! But you know that by now, I guess. ;)
