Vector Configurator won't recognise any airports and FTX Norway always goes on top on scenery

Featured Replies

[Also posted on ORBX Forum]

Hi! I just moved to P3DV4.1, from FSX. I installed P3DV4 on my D drive(Not C: drive where my FSX is), and later I moved it to my own map D:/P3DV4 inside the D drive.

But now if I download ORBX products I have to manually drag the from D: to D:/P3DV4 folder.

When I run Vector Configurator, it can't find any airports in cfg, so when I start a flight I have ex. both ENGM payware scenery and FTX Norway scenery showing. The only thing I can do to fix it, is go to scenery library and move Aerosoft Oslo over FTX Norway(And that's so unnecessary, every time).

Because every time I start P3DV4, FTX Norway, Vector and Global goes on top, over all my installed airports. What to do? 

 

My ORBX products:

Global

Vector

FTX Norway

Trees

 

I have a lot of addon scenery, for example; Airports of Norway, but Vector configurator can't detect any of the airports. 

 

As attached, this is my D drive. Here I tried to manually disable one of the airports in Norway, but this is what happened. The files went to D:/ drive, not D:/ P3DV4. Is there something with the directory where P3D is? So FTX Central thinks its on D:/ But its actually in D:/P3DV4 folder??

Screenshot who shows what I mean: https://imgur.com/a/menYY (could not post it here for some reason)

Also, in the VECTOR Configurator, when I ex search for ENGM(Oslo), it's not showing up, but its not disabled by the Configurator. 

 

 

Hope you guys can help me!

I am now having the same issue.  Did you find a solution to this problem?

Did you update ORBX Central to version 4, and/or  migrated Regions using XML method?

If yes this could be the problem.

Vector does not read XML sceneries. You have to do it manually. I go into the vector folders and disable an airport I am flying to. You can always find them with the ICAO code. Just replace the letters bgl with off.

Download and install the Make Runways tool on Pete Dowson's site then rerun the Vector Configuration Tool and it should be able to see all the XML airports.
