Gents,
After about 3-4 days of installing, tweaking and fine tuning my latest FSX SE install, I actually had it to looking great with Orbx regions, REX, FS Global 2010 FTX edition, Orbx Vector and Land Class. I even had My Traffic 6 Pro up and running. That's when I got a bit cocky and decided to add some of the military airports on Flyawaysimulations.com, ACG and SDB. I did test the first few and while they may not have been complete transformations, the artists did a great job of making them feel much more immersive and military looking, in my opinion. McChord Field now looked much more akin to McChord, NAS Miramar looked fantastic so then I chose to try MAIW. I think the field was Mountain Home. I installed the folder into a desktop folder, knowing many of the MAIW files are FS9 and began cut and pasting the entries into their appropriate FSX SE folders. I then started FSX SE which still is defaulted to fly over Friday Harbor in the glider and where there was once Puget Sound, it now resembled the usual PNW Rain forest......tree's everywhere.
I then used Holger's technique of using the back up terrain.cfg file into the FSX directory. It worked before when I saw tree's but it failed this time.
I truly hate to re-install all again and I'm just curious if I can root through the scenery library, deleting the various addon scenery files to then try adding each one back on again? Will this eliminate the problem or perhaps it's just a scenery folder hierarchy order that I may have missed somewhere. Anyway, I know I've seen other posts in here regarding this, including mine, but the library only goes back a few years worth of threads or perhaps I need to try another search of tree's in water to see what other's have tried to fix the mess I have.
Thanks for taking time to read and more thanks for any forthcoming tips.
