Any Idea how to fix this?
« on: May 30, 2021, 12:44:15 PM »
So... I'm running P3D V3. I have Orbix Global vector and landclass. Pacific Fiords and Southern AK. I just installed Tongass X (the non installer version for P3d I got here. I used to own a copy of Tongass when I ran FSX) and I have Tongass' scenery entries above Orbix global but below my scenery entried for the Orbix regions.

You have to manually put in the 40 Tongass terrain entries into the P3D terrain.cfg file for use in any version P3D version.

Okay.... Still as clear as mud...

Is there a text file I can copy and paste to make this work somewhere?

 I didn't use the installer version available here so I have no cfg entries for Tongass. Just my Orbx stuff.

  Yes, editing the "terrain.cfg" file to add the 40 TFX entries is a mandatory step.  Also, correct placement of the higher and lower folders in the scenery library.  After that, setting the insertion point in Orbx Central to keep things in place are necessary for it to show correctly.   ;)

Still no joy...

No ocean, all 40 entries in. Restarts of the sim between edits. Only thing that might be an issue is I have Tongass in my addon scenery folder instead of FS Addon.
