fsx-ms Valid Scenery issue

[N1125Y 22]

Hello all,

 

out of the blue I get this message

 

"Flight Simulator CANOT run without a valid SCNERY.CFG, please, uninstall & reinstall Flight Simulator,. Click ABORT Flight Simulator"

 

I checked, and I can see scenery.cfg in the AppData Roaming, and it seems like okay, am I messing something ????

 

Thanks in advance

Do you have Scenery.cfg in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX?

[Jim Young 2,356]

If your scenery.cfg is missing, it should rebuild when you restart FSX.  The scenery.cfg in your appdata/roaming file is not the working scenery.cfg and should never be deleted or changed as it is the default and used to rebuild the scenery.cfg should the working one be accidently deleted.

..okay, I checked and the Scenery.cfg is under the FSX root directory,  what next ???

[Jim Young 2,356]

It should not be located under the FSX root directory.  It should be located where Troy above stated it should be located (it's a hidden folder).

 

If you do not have a scenery.cfg in the folder where your fsx.cfg is located, then you should run a repair installation.  Insert your fsx disks and select repair when asked.  You will also have to conduct a repair of SP1 and SP2 OR Acceleration too.

okay. I find 3 Scenery.cfg

 

A. Under user/appData/Roaming/FSX/

B. FSX Root directory which is the D:/ Drive

C. C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX​

 

It's all there, how do I take it from here ????

 

Reg. 

 

BTW

 

Not sure if it's matter but:

 

FTX Global Vector and FSGneisses installed, nothing else   

[Jim Young 2,356]

Delete the one in C:\Program Data\Microsoft\FSX (or move the config to a temporary folder).  A new one will be rebuilt and wa la! your config will be valid again.

..perfect ... tnx you so much ...

 

now. before I let you go Jim, I'm lunching FTX Central 2 and a red message pops up telling me that

"The terrain.cfg file doesn't contain [Landclasses] section, Please make sure you have the latest Orbx Libraries install" which I have  ?

I do not know the reason for this error.  I recommend you post the question in the Orbx/FTX Support Forum here at AVSIM or at their website.
