I'm locking up. Every time I approach St. Nazaire, CFS2 freezes. The only way out is Ctl-Alt-Del. I can see the scenery just fine. It looks great, but it won't let me fly over it. Does this sound nuts? I've never had it do this before, with any new scenery. I tried Free Flight 2 times and when that crapped out, then I went into MB and set up a fly over mission. Same thing. Different AC, but same result.

Worthless,

Did you read carefully the part about replacing the original La Rochelle building.dp files? I had to correct a couple of the .dp files in order to get the scenery to work. I fixed the .dp files and re-uploaded the La Rochelle package on June 15th, 2013. If you did not update those files, CFS2 is locking up because those .dp files are flawed and are not generating the .cdp files.

You need to overwrite the original .dp files for the La Rochelle scenery with the updated ones in the package, and make sure to delete your filelist.dat and .cdp files, allowing them to regenerate. That should fix your issues, my friend.
 
Yep. That was it. Did I read carefully? Boy am I a stup. Misread it is more like it. I've been at the coast for a few days and while I could keep up with SOH via my laptop, I couldn't install it til now. I just got back in town and I was in such a hurry to install it that didn't do what your instructions clearly say. Never mind......works like a charm now. Great work Rami and Tobob. Beautiful scenery.
