I already bought the scenery and registered it and I am using fsx/sp2, not acceleration.

I repeat again, just to be sure:

- The installer didn't issued any error message. Yes or No ?

- The installer didn't put the scenery in the scenery library, even if it didn't issued any error message ?

- If you added Zurich in the Library, did it start updating the library with the progress bar that says "Updating scenery files" ? If yes, you should restart FSX. If no, it means you haven't correctly set the folder.  To set the folder, you need SELECT with a single click the Zurich folder, do NOT double click to show up the Zurich\scenery subfolder, click the Zurich folder and press OK.

- The Addon Manager works, you see Zurich, and it says it's "Active" ?

But, evev if it wasn't active, you should at least see the scenery in Trial for 5 minutes, not simply not showing anything. So, it's not an Addon Manager problem, and it's not an activation problem, otherwise the scenery would have worked in Trial mode.

- O'Hare and JFK both work ?


Sorry, but if all of this is true, the only explanation can be:

a) You are not adding the scenery to the library correctly

b) you don't have the latest version of Zurich

1. The installer did not issue any error message.
2. True, the installer did not put the scenery in the scenery library.
3. After I manually added ZurichX to the scenery library the progreess bar did show up and I did restart fsx.
4. The addon manager does show that ZurichX is active.
5. The only problem might be that the trail mode did not show up before I activated Zurich.
6. O'hare is activated and works well and JFK works well in Trail Mode and when I load it says trail mode has started at the top of the screen.
7. I downloaded the ZurichX installer a few hours ago so I assume it's the latest and I did add the scenery correctly to the scenery library by only clicking on the ZurichX folder once and seeing the progress bar.

Yes!!!

Zurich now works. I open fsx and choose Zurich as my location and click FLY NOW! and the buildings showed up!

Maybe I forgot to exit fsx after I added Zurich into the scenery library.
