Today I downloaded a freeware airport to UBW/PAKU,   (Ugnu - Kuparuk ). This is on the North Slope of  Alaska

After noting that it only had one hangar and nothing else except a runway I decided to download a truck library (ford_transit_collection.zip) from AVSIM. I have done a fair amount of airport and aircraft addons but never a truck library.

    Well, I guess I am no good at that because now when I start my simulator I get  hit with 55 different dialog windows stating "Scenery.confg File Error.Local Scenery Directory (Orlando2008_LC\Scenery) in Scenery area .038 not found. Click ok to continue" when I click ok another one comes up for 55 different airports one after another  before I can start flying. 

 

   I have solved addon issues before but never on this scale and I don't know what to do.

Can someone tell me how to unsnarl this mess? I have Rubway  12 and Loneys EZ Scenery but have never experienced this typr of problem.

No disrespect intended, but you seem to have little or no understanding as to how scenery even works in FS2004. Simply downloading and installing libraries, be they trucks or the Runway12 or EZ libraries, won't add a thing you can actually see unless you also have scenery installed which makes use of those libraries.

 

Having noted that, I wonder whether you've installed any addon sceneries correctly. As you are describing your current problem, it sounds as if your scenery.cfg file has gotten corrupted (or even erased) somehow, and unless you deliberately delete the file, corrupting it shouldn't be an easy thing to do inadvertently. Unless, of course, you've either tried to manually edit the file or used the Scenery Library function within FS2004 to rearrange things to your liking as opposed to, say, the way the sim expects to find them.

 

Without more information, I doubt if anyone will be able to help much in working through this. How badly is the scenery,cfg file corrupted? That would be one question I would have. If most of it's still all right, you might get rid of any jumbled bits and begin reinstalling any addon sceneries in the FS2004 Scenery Library as they are supposed to be installed. Failing that, you may have no better alternative than to delete your entire FS2004 installation and reinstall the entire thing from scratch.

Easy Fix. …… After noticing that my Addon File  of 55 addon airports had somehow been sucked into the ADV file I removed it and placed it back in line on it’s own and instantly the 55 Scenery File Errors disappeared. All my airports and hangars and trucks etc are back in service. Thanks for the interest.
