1. Reinstalled JFK2.5 on 04:00PM ET today, ran LiveUpdate and I see buildings only, no jetways, no excludes (hence I see a bunch of holes), blurry textures or lack of textures.
2. The Add-One menu is visible from P3D upper menu but it's not accessible.
3. Also, EZDOK camera stopped working in JFK and it says that it's looking for Simconnect. Amazingly, EZDOK works perfectly fine in other airports even those made by FSDT.
Looks like Simconnect issue to me, but I have never experienced them before. All three simconnects have been installed.
P3Dv4.3, Win7 Pro is here. All AV exclusions are set properly
All the other FSDT sceneries works ok.

I read this topic.
1. I have never customized GSX file and moreover I don't have KJFK file in the ...VIRTUALi/GSX folder
2. I just installed JFK and ran the LU. ADE/AFCAD file is the one that was provided with the installer. No other files as checked with the Airport Scanner.

You said you do have buildings (FSDT buildings) by not jetways and no ground textures ?

Yes

And other FSDT airports are working normally ?

Yes. JFK only

As I already mentioned, EZDOK does not work at JFK as well - it seeks for Simconnect and cannot find it. It has a tool to test all 3 installed simconnects and none of them tend to communicate with EZDOK. I have been using EZDOK with no problems for many years until last week when new GSX installer was put into P3D
-
What if you disable Ezdok ? If Simconnect was REALLY missing, you wouldn't see *anything* from *any* FSDT scenery, no GSX menu, no Couatl menu, nothing.
So, clearly, Simconnect must be working but, if Ezdok says there's a problem with it, perhaps Ezdok itself is part of the problem.

I doubt it, but I will test this scenario. As I said, EZDOK and GSX had co-existed peacefully for 7 years until last week. The most recent EZDOK update was installed in February.

We don't make any changes to Simconnect (we just start the official installer you have in the P3D4\redist folder but, it won't do anything and will just skip if the Simconnect is already installed in the system.

I disabled EZDOK from launching, reinstalled GSX and the module started P3D, loaded JFK and now I lost everything including buildings.

Are the other FSDT sceneries still working ?

I uninstalled all of them...I'm going to add KLAX in 5 minutes and let you know. For JFK, I cannot access Add-one Menu while it's still visible
-
KLAX works perfectly, the Add-One menu is accessible, even EZDOK works (I enabled it again)
-
Both coautl and EZDOK rely on Simconnect when I load the sim in JFK. I don't understand why it's JFK and not, let's say KLAX or FB KSFO (just tested it)
-
spent 5 hours installing, reinstalling, disabling, checking AV exclusions, repairing Simconnects...no luck. FSDT JFKv2.5 isn't not showing up in the sim. Period
-
Just did the final test with FSLabs and FSSpotlight both disabled (FSLabs is activated/de-activated via Add-One method) and once I loaded a scenario at KJFK, the sim crashed immediately with coautl.exe as a faulting module. Also. I have tested some other airports, such as MK LPPT and SW LEBL and also got P3D crashed with couatl as a module to blame for. On the other hand, FT CYYZ and FSDT new KLAX works flawlessly. It seems like FSLabs/Spotlight somehow allowed me to overpass the error, but eventually I still ran into the issue from a different direction.
Now, it appears that my couatl.exe is damaged, I'm wondering what should I do in order to fix it.
Thanks

More Updates - seems like it's major Simconnect issue. In specific locations, such as JFK, LEBL, LPPT all the add-ones that rely on Simconnect (FSDT, AS2016, PMDG, EZDOK) stop working. I will be trying to reinstall Client and COntent one-by-one

PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!!
Please read the topic, this is exactly the same problem i ran into. Deletion of the file in question and its eventual regeneration solved the problem with Simconnect. It seems like random issue caused by LM and not by any other add-one. Should be sticky or added to the knowledge base
