deleted addon scenery area in scenery library - FSX

Recommended Posts

Help! I was flying over Dallas(in FSX) and everything was good when I rememberedsomething that someone on here suggested...I opened scenery library and edited the addon scenery area to point toa directory in FS9 (citiesDallas). It looked good but I didn't wantto damage anything so I tried to undo what I just did and I could not.You cannot select the Addon scenery directory in FSX. It won't let you.I ended up deleting the addon scenery area in scenery library (thinkingthat then I could reselect it but I couldn't). I can't reactivate my addon scenery directory. I don't really need it (yet)but I would like to have things like they were b4 I eff'd with it.Please help :-zhelp

Hello -Can anyone help? Please?I don't know why MS made it impossible to select the addon scenery directory but they seem to have done just that.If anyone knows any way to get back where I was without reinstalling FSXthen I would greatly appreciate it.I've looked at scenery.cfg files and I've looked at the registry. I don'tsee anything --- but there must be something.And WARNING! - DO NOT delete the addon scenery area. The game won't evenhesitate to oblige but then you are stuck. Its a trap door.

Hi Dave,how about using the FSX repair option? I've had to use it a couple of times myself and it worked well. Of course, if you have made major changes to your FSX setup then you may just want to copy the missing files directly from the DVDs.Cheers, Holger

Hi Holger -Thanks for replying. FSX repair didn't work but I found something that did.Did you know there are two scenery.cfg files?
