Try without anything in the community folder.

Search for the content.xml and delete it.

Try again.

ok so u mean clear the community folder and just include the nss folder?

also where do i find the content.xml - is this in the nss folder or is there one of these somewhere in my community folder?

note also i have the simmarket version and just dropped the unzipped folder into my community - assume this is correct?

C:\Users\*your name*\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache   (If on Store version, not sure if its the same for Steam).

 

Thanks to this thread I just realized orbx was not the only option for this airport.

I bought this one when it first came out so I never looked into the Orbx one.

If you do a search in your computer for content.xml it should come up. Right click and open folder location.

Do you have rolling cache enabled?

I’m curious which one is considered better?

Delete the rolling cache and disable it forever.

Restart the sim and try to see if the airport load.

Every time an update is issued by ASOBO, get into the habit of checking to see if the cache was re-enabled. Rolling cache causes all kinds of problems.

Did you see that the ORBX version is on sale for $4.82?

That's affordable.

interesting - have always run with rolling enabled (thought it was meant to improve performance!) 

but will try and run it without to see if it helps......

I have the Orbx Ketchikan by Russ White for quite awhile and like it. It's cheaper even when not on sale, so probably not as good. The same guy Russ White had one in FSX, sold by ORBX too.
