Author Topic: KORD elevation issues SOLVED (Read 2934 times)

I am seeing elevation issues with the FSDreamteam KORD airport in MSFS from NE Ramp 10 parking to the approach end of Rwy 27C. I have eliminated any issues with addons in my community folder. Is anyone else seeing this issue and is there a fix? Thank you. I will add that this airport was purchased through the marketplace and says it is up to date. I have even uninstalled and reinstalled the airport but no change in the issue.

Have you uninstalled the default Asobo KORD? Other things to try are deleting your cache, the SceneryIndexes .dat files and the content.xml file.

I am not able to uninstall the default asobo kord. When I uninstall the FSDreamteam version and reboot the Asobo KORD does not show up as not installed or installed. But the folder is in the Official folder. I don't like deleting the files you suggested as I do not understand the implications of doing so.

I am trying something. I found the content.xml file and changed the line
<Package name="asobo-airport-kord-chicago-ohare" active="true"/>
to
<Package name="asobo-airport-kord-chicago-ohare" active="false"/>
I restarting MSFS to see the result.

Well that change fixed the issue but I'm curious as to why it was there to begin with. I would have thought after uninstalling KORD by FSDreamTeam it would have restored the original Asobo KORD but it didn't. Anyway the issue is resolved and I have made a text document outlining what I did to resolve the issue for future reference.

Aparently the reason I cannot uninstall the Asobo KORD airport is it is part of either the Deluxe Upgrade or the Premium Upgrade that I purchased when I purchased the Premium Deluxe edition.

You can uninstall the default hand crafted airports, in content manager you need to click on the 3 dots/lines to the right of Deluxe, that will open up all of the contents. Search for KORD and then uninstall it.

Thank you for that information. I will try that.
Update: That worked. Thank you very much. I learned something new. Thanks again. Interesting that when you uninstall the airport the files are still showing in the official folder.

No problem, it's advisable to uninstall any Asobo handcrafted airport if you intend to use a 3rd party version.
