Title: Help! Please! I might have made a mistake...
Post by: Briskf16 on February 27, 2019, 07:05:13 am
I was having random CTD issues at various times and pin-pointed it to numerous issues, GSX being one of them. I uninstalled GSX AND the add-on manager thinking when I re-install GSX, it would include the add-on manager. However, now when I go to ANY FSDT scenery EXCEPT PHNL, non of the terminals/buildings, etc show up. It's very frustrating....I have run the live update....anyone have any ideas? THANK YOU for your time.

Be sure you only install the latest versions of everything, GSX and all the sceneries.

I will make sure, thank you...confirm the latest versions are downloaded from the products page off the fsdt website?

Yes, there are no other places you are supposed to download from.

I've downloaded only from the website and still nothing...the terminal buildings don't show up on any scenery other than PHNL...thoughts?

Do you have BOTH the Couatl menu and the Addon Manager menu ? Have you installed GSX as well ? All our recent sceneries requires it, they won't work without.

Is the Addon Manager reporting the scenery to be installed ?
Title: Re: Help! Please! I might have made a mistake...
Post by: Briskf16 on February 28, 2019, 02:42:42 pm
Yes, the addon manager said the scenery is installed and active. GSX says only active.

I added a screen shot to hopefully aid in the trouble-shooting...thank you.

I'm sorry, but if:

- the Addon Manager says the scenery is installed

- the scenery is the latest version available on our site.

- GSX is installed too and it's working.

The scenery MUST work. Check all the above.

Here you go...

You posted a screen from the Windows Control Panel, which said you installed the scenery. That's not what I asked. I asked if the Addon Manager is reporting the scenery to be installed in the Scenery Library.

Acquired GSX level2, good job, but there were a few problems that I can not cope.
1. The fuel truck began to drive up on the contrary though everything was normal earlier.
2. All the time the minibus pulls up and is only 1 passenger, placed in different Parking lots, one and the same. The slider in the settings of passengers put on a maximum.
Explain how to fix this. Thanks.

1. The fuel truck began to drive up on the contrary though everything was normal earlier.

Why you think this is a problem ? That's the correct position for a fuel truck. More precisely, it's the correct position for the Fuel Hydrant, which will come in the next update, so as soon that will be out, the Hydrant will drive that way, and the tanker (which will be used when there's no jetway), will go back to the old position from the back.

Please read the manual, especially the part about the "Estimate Passenger number" option and what it does.

Umberto, is there still time to suggest that the fuel hydrant/fuel truck appearance should be governed by a checkbox on the gate / airport properties? Just like the "parking has a jetway" option. "Parking has a fuel connection" like message.
Some remote parking positions (i.e., without gates) have a hole on the floor for the fuel lines and the fuel hydrant is the correct vehicle to be displayed in those cases...

Obviously yes.

By DEFAULT, the Hydrant will be used on a Gate, and the Tanker on a Parking in the open but, of course, there will be a new customization option called "Underground Fuel", so you can customize the choice for each parking.

Great news! Really counting the days to the next update.
I hope everything goes well with the beta. Cheers!

Do the sceneries work meanwhile? Sometimes I had a similar issue: Non working FSDT sceneries after installing them in the correct way. Reinstalling the newest version of the standalone addon manager AFTER all the other addons solved the problem for me (of course with AntiVir turned off).

Of course they do.

That's likely because another addon has mistakenly set some wrong compatibility flags over the simulator .exe (because they are not fully compliant with Windows UAC rules, a common mistake), and our installer reset such flags to their correct value, that's why it seems to "fix" problems caused by others.
