i appreciate the feedback. i've really never had any trouble installing scenery since FS9, but i think you're right that with the way P3Dv4 handles installs, it would be worth it to learn more about it. i honestly thought that i did have a good idea of add on scenery installation, but clearly i have holes in my knowledge! :)

unfortunately, i have downloaded it several times and even reached out to them. they cannot figure it out either

i have done that. its been in the list and checked. ive run the installer in admin mode several times too. anti virus was disabled and all as well. im in the process of uninstalling and reinstalling all my add on sceneries so hopefully something there will make it work again.

that file was not in that folder. the only files in that folder were add-on.xml.orig and add-on.xml.PSSCBAK. i found the two files but they were different when i opened them. the first file was blank when i opened, and the second had a FSDT entry and a FSUIPC entry

Thanks, I will give a try a report back!

ive been experimenting all afternoon...i think the problem is the imaginesim scenery is not showing up in the add on xml list. ive used P3D Addon Organizer and scenery config editor. no luck.

Fscommander is just a flight sim planner and map app. It is not the problem, as the KATL doesn't work even when fscommander is not running. Im not sure what caused it stop working. It was working, because I have flown into the katl since during the last month. I have not gotten simple airport scanner because I'm on the road for work, but I can when I get home tomorrow. Thanks again.

I should also mention that this happened only recently, as if the file got corrupted suddenly, because it used to work just fine. That is why I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and all the different things I could think of.

Hi guys. Sorry for the delayed response. I'm on the road for work. To answer the questions y'all asked, I tried several different ways to install the scenery. I tried installing to a different folder than the installer would do on its own. I also tried installing it without changing the scenery path during the installation. I tried changing the scenery priority through the sim's scenery library, as well as through two other third party software and can confirm that the scenery was at the top of the list with the other add on sceneries I have. The reason I know it's installed correctly is that the rest of the airport scenery is displaying as it should. Also, inaginesim KATL is the only third party KATL that is installed. As to how I determined the ade bgl that is being read, I have FSCommander 9 and there is a feature that allows me to pull up information on an airport in the sim (such as ils frequencies, runway lengths, runway type, etc) and one of the things it lists is which file is being read for that airport. I haven't tried recompiling the ade bgl yet, but I will when I get home. That wouldn't fix tho the fact that I've tried with four different ade files (hispec, lospec, original imaginesim ade, and p3dv3 ade) and still it doesn't read it. However, thank you guys for trying to help me so far. I very much appreciate it.

Hey Dan, thanks for your reply. i completely get it that the scenery loads fine but seems something is wrong with the airport bgl file, but not sure how to fix it. ive downloaded and tried the airport BGL's from the Lospec, Hispec, and p3dv3 versions, with not luck. i can open it in ADE as well.

Hello all, im hoping someone can help with a problem i am having. i am trying to use Imaginesim's KATL with P3Dv4. my problem is that even though the scenery loads properly, the airport KATL_ADEX_ADE.bgl file does not load. when i look into which ADE file the sim is reading, its APX25500 which is the default atlanta scenery. when i attempt to load a flight and start at imaginesim's KATL, the only options i have for the initial parking spot are "Active Runway" and "Tower Controller". if i choose active runway, the sim loads right in the middle between terminals. i have tried uninstalling, reinstalling and all that several times. i am making sure that i am using the version for P3Dv4. i also contacted the developer who attempted to help me but in the end could not figure out why my sim is loading the default KATL.bgl and the imaginesim buildings. if anyone as any ideas, please help me. thanks everyone.

i was wondering if that was the case. with pmdg there is a specified paint kit, but i didnt know if there was here. im up for the challenge though (famous last words right). thanks, guys, for the response.

Hi everyone, im trying to do my own repaint of the Aero Commander Shrike, but haven't been able to find it. i have found other repaints but not the actual paint kit. does anyone know where i can find it? or know how i can do it? thanks in advance?

Hi, first of all, i am sorry if the solution to my problem is stated elsewhere, but i cant seem to locate it. in every aircraft i have, i assign the landing gear to a saitek throttle quadrant. i set a range for the gear to be down and when it exits that range the gear goes up. this is not working with the FSX PMDG 737 NGX. the gear will go up, but when the lever (on my throttle) is pulled down, the on screen gear lever begins to pulse in and out and the gear doesnt go down. . i am using windows 7, fresh fsuipc.ini and registered FSUIPC. any help will be appreciated.

just did fresh install of fsx with acceleration. on my previous install, i had all my saitek yoke/rudder/throttle settings assigned through registered copy of fsuipc. only thing that was assigned through FSX was the hat switch to allow for panning the view. now, however, as i attempt to do the same thing, every time i start FSX the default settings return through FSX. i have checked my permissions and access stuff in the folder properties. all is well there. i really dont want to assign the pan view to fsuipc because its not as smooth. im just not sure why it worked before and now it wont. i have searched the fsuipc forums and google and no one can seem to find an answer for these problems. if anyone has any advice, it would be greatly appreciated.
