Title: Unsuccessful Tongass Fjords install revisited
Post by: don235 on November 15, 2017, 07:49:23 PM
Hello guys and dolls,

Just want to say thanks to everyone for their help and insight, however all was unsuccessful, I cannot get Tongass Fjords X to work. It's ashame I really enjoyed Misty Moorings. Maybe some enterprising person will rework an installer for p3d some day hell I would even pay for it. I have had Tongass for years so I got my money's worth. After removing everything all sceneries are back to Orbx standards and FTX Central3 is working again. I still have my old FSX machine so I can still go there when I want. Anyway thanks to all and I will be departing the fix.
Best Regards,
Don235

I had one heck of a time installing TFX in P3D V4 also. I was finally able to get it to work. The only issue I have now is Sitka and Wrangell crashing and I suspect it is due to a few corrupt AI files I read about once but can not find at the moment. The next issue is the convoluted RTMM files. I did this foray once already and it resulted in a complete wipe and reinstall of P3D V4 because of crashes and errors. Again, I suspect traffic files but I am not sure. P3D is the future so I would hope someone somewhere will make a proper installer for all. Sure would be nice to just buy RTMM, install and be done. In the mean time I have been flying AKA instead until I can figure this out. I put Tongass at the top of my library to get it to work with my global, vector, NA LC, and regional sceneries. I backed up all of the folders I added to just in case I had problems again. What exactly happened with your install? Did you follow Poppets guide?

Beaverpilot74: Rod Jackson's AI model replacements for Tongass will stop those CTD in P3dv4x.

Thanks, I found the answer in RTMM just modified a few file names and added a new prop texture on the few that were causing problems. Bell flies out of Sitka now.
