GSX unable to display menu at freeware EETN

[Ray Proudfoot]

Hi Umberto,

This is a new problem for me. I have installed a freeware Tallinn (EETN) from AvSim Library. It also includes an AFCAD file. Because I also have MyTraffic Pro I've removed the EETN AFCAD in the MyTraffic folder as I want GSX to use the one supplied with the scenery.

But when I press the button to display the GSX menu all I get is an error message (in a green banner at the top of the screen) stating:-

System error whilst accessing file "C;\MyTrafficProfessional\MyTraffic\scenery\BR2_EETN.bgl. CreateFile: The system cannot find the file specified.

I thought when you launched FSX GSX automatically updated its database of airports. But instead of using the AFCAD supplied in the freeware EETN it's still trying to read a moved file. Why?

I'm attaching the freeware EETN AFCAD for reference.

Yes, changing or adding/removing a new scenery should have triggered a cache regeneration on the next FSX restart. You can force it by removing the following folders (when FSX is NOT running):

C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX\SceneryIndexes
C:\ProgramData\Virtuali\Couatl

Thanks Umberto. I shall try that - probably tomorrow now.
