Version 31.10.2

[seeckt 0]

Hi,

I have a new machine. WIN11, 16GB Ram and a graphics card with 8GB.

Now when I open PSXT I get the message: 150:No FSX install path detected, autoscan not possible, set lfolder and afolder parameters (Manual 4.1 and 5.1)

But that doesn't help me. I edited the xml file in the same way as version 29.

I ask for help.

 

Best regards

Ulrich

Switch off automatic scan liveries and addon airports.

[seeckt 0]

Is off. Error still remains.

The problem seems to be the missing FSX install path. I don't have any idea how to do.

I got a bit further. Now this: 49: Set parameters to your add-on airports first

<parameter name="ADDON_AIRPORTS_FOLDER" value="G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\FSX\Addon Scenery" />

That's the wrong parameter, you must use afolder0 

See Manual 5.1

<parameter name="afolder0" value="G:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\FSX\Addon Scenery" />

42: parameter afolder0 points to stock airports ...

5.1 didn't help me.

The log times seem to be not correct. Should be about 16:00

No, log time is in utc.

PSXT could not find FSX. That's my fault because it assumes you are running it from MS and not from Steam. I will correct that when I am back from vacation.  However, this has always be the case sofar. So  it should also work with the lfolder0 and afolder0 parameters like you probably have done at your previous computer.

I don't understand why you have set LIVERIES_FOLDER, STOCK_AIRPORTS_FOLDER  and ADDON_AIRPORTS_FOLDER... 

They are only used in networked settings, chapter 12. Please delete all 3 from your parameters.xml.

The lfolder0  parameter should point to the top folder of your ai liveries package, not to the top of FSX.

The afolder0 parameter looks good.

Delete your addon_airports folder and then try again.

 

 

[kiek 1,212]

Extra: although your afolder0  parameter is correct, you run into the problem it thinks it points to the stock airports because it ends at Scenery, and there is no FSX install path found.

Change the afolder0  parameter such that it points one level deeper. If you have more addon airports use more afolderx parameters. Maybe you can set a parameter per brand/manufacturer,  Aerosoft, Simmarket, etc..
