Senery.cfg error

Postby michaleen » Sat Apr 05, 2014 8:40 pm

Hi All, I have been trying to add scenery to FSX. Two problems 1. Cant seem to add scenery to FSX when selecting Add Area. I know windows 7 is different in accomplishing this but cant for the life of me remember how.
2. I now have a cookie coming up every time I fire up FSX. Scenery.CFG file error. Invalid Remote scenery path in scenery Area.119. Click OK to continue.
Any help with this is, as always, most appreciated.

A quick reply to the "add scenery" problem...

..after you have selected the new scenery folder in the box, immediately click on a "blank space" in the box in front of you!

It should then accept your selection.

..a funny little quirk of Windows. You have to do it every time!

Paul...another funny little quirk.... :mrgreen: ...!

Fozzer is quite right. This little video explains it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8kO1IsJMuE

Thanks guys, All good. On the second problem found blank area in Scenery library/area and deleted, however have now a second warning giving a different scenery area ( .118) which does not come up in scenery library. These warnings dont seem to effect the game however. Will keep trying.
