Issue with Aerosoft Oslo v2 after update 1.03

[virtuali]

- went to check the log files under %appdata%\Virtuali but to my surprise no new log files had been created

Maybe you also removed that folder, which contains the GSX preferences and by default, GSX doesn't create a Log file, you will have to go again in the GSX Settings and be sure Logging is enabled.

[WebMaximus]

No, I didn't remove the folder or any other config files but you were still correct logging was not enabled anymore and I guess this happened when I reinstalled GSX a while ago.

So I now did the test once again and below is the log file. Doesn't really say much about the Alpha_Flatten.bgl file as you can see but on the other hand I don't find this an issue anymore since a fix has been made available from Aerosoft.

Another thing I noticed in the log is the entry that says

Airport cache regeneration completed with success in 1 seconds

That's great news so it looks like I was wrong that the automatic airport cache doesn't work, only that it happened so fast so I never noticed it in FSX. What I've been looking for is the message in FSX saying the airport cache is re-generated but if it only takes 1 second maybe that message doesn't even appear or I simply missed it.

Anyways, here's the log which also shows GSX seems to have some trouble updating the airport cache for the Mallorca X scenery. However I guess all is still good considering the airport cache regeneration success message mentioned above which appear after the warnings for the Mallorca X scenery.

That's great news so it looks like I was wrong that the automatic airport cache doesn't work, only that it happened so fast so I never noticed it in FSX. What I've been looking for is the message in FSX saying the airport cache is re-generated but if it only takes 1 second maybe that message doesn't even appear or I simply missed it.

That's normal, if the update time is so short, GSX won't even generate the progress text.

Anyways, here's the log which also shows GSX seems to have some trouble updating the airport cache for the Mallorca X scenery

That error in the log looks like an out of memory error or a disk space exhausted error. Are you short on space on any of your drives (check the C:\ drive too) ?

If no, and you are sure there's enough space available, it might simply mean that AFCAD is corrupted, and its tricking GSX into allocating memory that it shouldn't, because it has a bad pointer inside, so the OS replies with that error code.

[WebMaximus]

Ok, great to know about the short cache update time. So I guess that means the automatic update has been working just fine all the time only I didn't realize that because the update was so quick.

I'm positive I have enough diskspace left on all my drives so must be a corrupt afcad like you suggest or something else that triggers this error message. The scenery itself works just fine though and so does GSX at this airport (LEPA) despite the error messages in the log.

Did spot another GSX issue though at LEPA but I guess that is a DX10 issue, the baggage loaders and the bags were all black as seen here

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/94801887/GSX%20black%20bags%20and%20baggage%20loaders%20using%20DX10%20at%20LEPA.JPG

However when I'm at Oslo for example everything looks normal as seen in this next screenshot so I guess the baggage loader models and the bags are different depending on what company provides the service.

GSX is 100% DX10 compatible, a black vehicles usually means a missing texture for an operator. I've tried at default LEPA, the operator was Iberia, and the baggage loaders and bags are fine. Try to update just the vehicles (download one of the vehicles installers), to be sure you have the latest version of all the liveries.

[WebMaximus]

Thanks, I'll try that.

[WebMaximus]

Had another look and found out that Iberia works just fine as you say, the problem is when handling is provided by Air Europa.

Did some searching for vehicles installers as you suggested but found it a bit hard to know what exactly to download and what would be the latest version? Would be great if there was a package containing all handlers and the latest versions. Maybe there is such a download only I missed it?

Or...is there any way I could simply disable Air Europa?

Had another look and found out that Iberia works just fine as you say, the problem is when handling is provided by Air Europa.

Air Europa works fine here, as you can see in my screenshot so, if you don't have it, it means you haven't installed the latest vehicles.

Did some searching for vehicles installers as you suggested but found it a bit hard to know what exactly to download and what would be the latest version? Would be great if there was a package containing all handlers and the latest versions. Maybe there is such a download only I missed it?

As you can see, the vehicles installers download links have a release date. They contain everything released after that date so, unless you GSX full installer dates earlier than a specific date, you can download the smallest installer and it contains everything. If your GSX full installer is older, you should download/install the next larger (older) vehicle installer, which also contains everything from its own date up to today.

Since Air Europa has been added very recently, the smallest ( the 3rd update ) one surely contains it.

[WebMaximus]

Many thanks Umberto!

Was looking for the vehicles update installers here on the forum and didn't realize they were to be found on the GSX product page. Just downloaded and installed the Feb 2012 package just to be on the safe side and now Air Europa works just fine 

One question though for the future - I thought all updates for GSX were automatically installed when you're accepting the updates offered inside FSX where you every now and then are prompted there's an update available? Or do I need to keep downloading and installing these vehicles updates manually the way I did now?

One question though for the future - I thought all updates for GSX were automatically installed when you're accepting the updates offered inside FSX where you every now and then are prompted there's an update available? Or do I need to keep downloading and installing these vehicles updates manually the way I did now?

Only the GSX program *code* is updated automatically, but not vehicles and their liveries, because they can be hundreds of new files and folders, which are very inefficient to be downloaded "live", and are better suited to be released in a compressed installer.

Ok, good to know.

Thanks!
