Addon Scenery
Hi,
My problem is that my addon function, is not functioning. A few weeks ago everything was fine, now I can't use ADE or add any third party scenery [ Duxford from ACG ] I've upgraded FSUIPC to the latest version, deleted ADE and reinstalled a new download, I also reinstalled FSX Steam, but to no good purpose. I also downloaded a restore program from Steam Store, but that is just a bunch of folders with no instructions or any clue as to what's in them or what to do with them, I'm at my wits end and would be very grateful for any help, keeping in mind that you would dealing with tweedle dumb and tweedle dumber.
Thank you in advance
Geoff.

I would like to help but I am not sure what the problem is. You say you can't use ADE or add any third party scenery - can you give some more details about why you can't use ADE and why you can't add third party scenery? Can you not copy it into Addon Scenery\scenery or does it just not show up?

Jon, it's not ADE, that appears to working. The problem seems to be with the addon function in FSX. I have now managed to install Duxford, because I found an error ni the diretory line. it was missing '\scenery'. ADE complies the bgl but the addon scenery doesn't install or write it to the sim.

regards
Geoff.

Where are you compiling ADE to? which Folder? you need to tell it where to put the compiled files.. Also where is your Steam Installation? If it is in the default Program Files (x86) folder then User Access Control may stop you writing to the scenery folders. Try running ADE 'As Administrator'

everything is in the right place, and I've turned off the administrater. Any bgl that ADE has compiled, is in the addonscenery\scenery folder, and that's where it stops.

So you can't see your bgl files created by ADE in Addon Scenery\scenery? Or the airports do not show in FSX:SE?

We might find it easier to deal with this over on the ADE support forum at www.fsdeveloper.com There are a lot of good folks there who will also be able to help

I've just run ADEX Enviroment checker, and everything is fine, I still believe my problem is in the sim

It is most likely either that your airport bgl files are not being placed in an active scenery folder or the folder they are in is at a loading priority below the stock files or that you have a traffic program installed that is at a higher loading priority. This article explains about loading priority: https://scruffyduck.screenstepslive.com/s/help_docs/m/20268/l/199760-priority-matters
