Failure to pick up EGDP

[Tony Driver]

EGDP is in UK2000 vol 1 installed on my FSX. It shows correctly in FSX, but is not shown in Plan-G after database load. Same in Version 8.1 and 9.0

Hi Tony,

Have you set Plan-G's pointer to your Scenery.Cfg file?  It's under Options | Locations?

I'm a Vista 64 user and I didn't know until a few weeks ago that my correct Scenery.Cfg file is at C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX.  Until then I had selected the Scenery.Cfg file in my FSX root.

HTH,

Thanks for your response. I think I've found out what the problem is - my scenery.cfg shows UK2000 Volume 1 with a complete path, with the disk letter different from that used on the laptop sharing the disk.

Bypass is to use the database created by running Plan-G on the desktop - copy this to the laptop, and all is well.  :)
