My runway elevation is off at CZST Stewart
« on: November 04, 2018, 08:50:54 PM »
 My runway elevation appears off at CZST Stewart as my plane is "submerged." I have run the FTX Global Vector Config Tool and checked my mesh settings (5m). I do NOT have ORBX CZST installed. Is this a scenery order issue or does it require some other adjustment file for this airport?  Brian

Do you have Orbx NA Pacific Fjords/PFJ installed (which is required) ?
With this software installed you will get the elevation correction/adjustment file "ADE_FTX_PFJ_CZST_elevation_adjustment.BGL"

I do have ORBX PFJ, but not that file was not in P3D folders.  ORBX says my files are installed and up to date. I did find a copy on my old FSX PC and transferred that over and that fixed the problem. Any reason I shouldn't move all elevation adjustment files over to P3D? Thanks for the solution!  Brian

You might run "Verify Files" situated in the corresponding Orbx software folder.
This function will check the completeness of the respective installed software.

I didn't see a VERIFY FILES executable related to ORBX but I decided to try and fix another airport I was having issues with... so I copied the PANT elevation adjustment file from my old FSX install to P3D and it fixed that airport too.  Brian

"""I didn't see a VERIFY FILES executable related to ORBX"

Open FTXCentral3 - choose your flight simulator - switch to "North America" - click on icon "NA Pacific Fjords" - then you should see different blue buttons with white letters amongst them "Verify Files". (Check all files are valid ...)
That procedure  is same for other Orbx software.
