Major FSX problems!

Hi guys, thought I would try a post here, as I am staring down the barrel of a full FSX re-install, crammed with expensive add-ons, some not backed up after a slave HD failure 18 months ago.

I run FSX plus acceleration and fly mainly in the UK with full Horizon Gen-X scenery and UK2000 vol 1 and 2 plus freeware sceneries (some of them made by me).

All was fine until I purchased UK2000 Vol3 yesterday. I installed it and 'de-activated' via the menu any duplicate freeware from northern UK. I visited two or three and had no problems.

The large size of the install made me decide to uninstall (via control panel) some seldom used aircraft and sceneries, none from the UK though.

On my return, some (but not all) Vol 3 airfields will not load (the sim crashes at 80% at 'auto-gen' and at others, earlier in 'terrain') at all . I then found a great many airfields (anywhere in the WORLD) now do this and the sim will crash if you even fly into certain areas wher the problem is! Uninstalling does not help either.

Before I have to spend days trying to do a complete new FSX install, does anybody have any thoughts???
My Windows re-set has not worked for years either, so that is not an option!
 
You might try rearranging the scenery layers in your scenery library. I had a similar problem with the Ozx freeware when I installed it on FTX NA Blue. It seems that the priority of the scenery can make a big difference on how well they load.
 
As Smokey said, I've had this before where my scenery .cfg file got all mixed up. I simply edited by hand to get it sorted and was fine after that.

Thanks guys, I tried to re-organise the scenery layers and deleted everything (in the sim library) except Horizon, UK2000 and default sceneries, but that has not helped. Some airfields (or areas?) are fine to visit in all 3 Volumes of UK2000, but most kill FSX at 80% of loading (autogen). I have set autogen at '0', but that does not help.


As far as the scenery.cfg is concerned, I am not sure what it should look like (except in numerical order) when it is correct.

There are a lot of areas marked 'FALSE' in the REQUIRED listing, is that good? Here is a sample of the first 10 layers...

Required=FALSE just means that you can inhibit that area in Settings/Scenery Library.

What do the last few layers in your scenery.cfg look like?

This may have nothing to do with what has happened to you, BUT, lol. . .I have noticed that when I delete addons from the control panel. . .that what the icon is labeled is not always what is being deleted/uninstalled. I have, on several occasions wanted to uninstall say an aircraft that I know I manually deleted some time ago and when I click to uninstall, it will say "you are about to uninstall "Orbyx NA Blue", lol. . .that's just one fictional example, but you get my drift. If you don't really pay attention to what it says before it uninstalls, you could find some addons missing and not have any idea why they're gone.:salute:

I have seen the same thing on my Vista, Ed...I wonder why that happens and if there's a way to correct it?

Good luck with the FsX repairs Trevor.
 
I am beginning to think I have lost all my autogen! Maybe that is the problem???

This was always seen near Oxenhope (my version) but the scenery file is stored in the Horizon Gen-X folder (on a different HD to FSX) so it should still show up near (but not close) the UK2000 version now installed (one of the few airfields I can use) as it extended several miles around the field. Now I have nothing!

Maybe something like the payware sceneries I un-installed (and I fear I may have forgotten to remove from FSX first) has removed the trees and/or houses that it was using?

A full re-install is now looking likely, I guess 2 years of heavy modification has finally taken it's toll on FSX. Goodness knows if I will ever get it all back though!!

As far as I know, these should be active? All the default scenery should be live.

Here is the full .cfg....

Why are the UK2000 and Horizon products not listed here? They show up as the top layers of my scenery library and are outside 'add-on scenery' in the main FSX folder and another HD respectively?
​
 
Where is the scenery.cfg you are looking at located? As far as I know the FSX installer creates 3 copies - one in the FSX root folder, one in C:\Documents and Settings\your_name\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX and one in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX (assuming you are using XP). The last one C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX is the active one that FSX uses. If you haven't already, have a look at that one your Horizon VFR entries are probably in there.

Good luck!
 
Hi guys, I found the 'other' scenery .cfg (in the data application/ms/fsx folder) and it is a real mess! The numbers are all over the place, sometimes leaping over 100 in the order number. Should I try and re-order manually or will (like the FSX cfg file) the sim make a new one on starting up, if I delete it?

Here is the messy section....

Thanks Roger! I just edited all by hand, but that is a handy little tool!

It made no difference to my problem :crybaby:, I notice that the sim fails at 69% on default and 80 on Gen X VFR scenery and the MS report (which cannot be copied and pasted, thanks for nothing MS) says the problem lies in a terrain.dll.

I have looked into putting back what I un-installed and found that some were on a HD I lost about 18 months ago, trying to track purchases and getting new DL's may be more trouble than a re-install, and it may not cure the problem.
I guess, this thread may become..

What is the best way to re-install FSX without losing all your add-on goodies!
 
The problem is that the {Area.nnn}s should be consecutive. You have a gap before

Using the program from the link Roger posted should fix it.

Edit. In fact you have several gaps.

Well actually the FsX repair tool worked for me a year or two back funnily enough suggested by ananda (post above this one). It gave me a little work to do with backed up aircraft.cfgs but other than that it was fine. Insert Disk 1 and follow instructions to the letter.

Hi Roger, is this the 'un-install/repair option offered when you run disk 1 of FSX or another programme?

Thanks George, but as I said I did the re-listing by hand, what I posted was the messed up one. I'll run that prog anyway as it cannot make things worse.
