vLSO Beta release

Ok, is that 'FSX in the P3D folder' trick documented/recommended somewhere?

The FSX scenery.cfg file list ORBIX and Megascenery plus a bunch of other addon scenery, that is why it list so many.
I discovered something just now. I had put all of the FCLP scenery into FSX just to see if I could get them to work in FSX in the beginning of September, and they did.
It was at that point they begin to work in P3D, I just fired up FSX and and deactivated Choctaw in the scenery library. It would not work in P3D. Only when I activated Choctaw again in FSX would it work in P3D.
It appears the EXE.XML had nothing to do with it.
Seems vLSO is looking for some very specific locations and files.
Thanks for your information.

It has been brought up numerous times especially during some addon installations that don't have a P3D version and hunt for the FSX directory. I just change the registry to point it to the P3D directory that has the FSX. exe in it.

Sure, the EXE.XML has nothing to do with sceneries and vLSO looks for the SCENERY.CFG file, then reads it and gets all the necessary information on FCLP locations, if any.

If I do a SCENERY.CFG in FSX that is P3D specific it should work?
Making sure it points to the proper directories.
