tr3y4rch Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Hi inibuilds Team ! I've purchased EGSS scenery couple days ago, and I'm failing to install it into MSFS. Manually deleting the folder doesn't seem to coincide with the simulator neither does uninstalling via the inimanager. It shows the scenery in the content manager but only as "not installed" though it is. If there's a fix for that; that would be great :) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've not seen any comment yet from inibuilds officially, but you're not alone. It's a great airport, just v1.0.6 is a bit broken at the moment. Got the same issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christos Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 I have just joined this forum to post the exact same problem. I have de installed and re installed but EGSS wont show in sim. The content manager shows not installed, the Ini manager shows installed. Either way, the airport doesn't show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's a fix for that; that would be great 🙂 I've noticed that it's not actually loading the scenery into my game. Looking at dev mode there is no hook for the EGSS scenery to load from the community folder. It's there, installed via the inimanager but it's just not being loaded by the simulator. I've uninstalled and reinstalled three times via the inimanger with no luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted Account Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Yeah, for whatever reason the update didn't pull the correct layout.json file. It is supposed to be 431KB in size. Could you - or maybe did you already - try to uninstall and reinstall the scenery to see if it pulls the correct file? Alternatively you can regenerate a new layout.json file with this program here: https://github.com/HughesMDflyer4/MSFSLayoutGenerator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christos Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 Like bryer, i uninstalled/reinstalled 3 times with no luck. I'll try the 2nd method tomorrow. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bryer Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 I've run the ms layout generator. layout.json file is now 418kb, will test to see if scenery now loads up. There's some sort of issue with it pulling the correct one from the CDN and I'd inspect the files on the server, because surely the inimanger just pulls a directory to my PC and shoves it in the community folder?

Deleted Account Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 The file on the CDN is correct. When I download the scenery I get the correct file/size. It's a weird one, we are investigating though 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryer Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 It's working as expected now. Like I say it works with the layout.json at 418kb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Could you please press CTRL + I when having the manager open, switch to console in the top right corner, download the scenery again and afterwards copy&paste the output of the console here?

Jannes Ven Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 I reinstalled the airport, cleared scenery index en ran that GitHub file. Still does not show in msfs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G-AYMO Posted September 19, 2023 Share Posted September 19, 2023 Can I join in with exactly the same problem? Tried the GitHub file but I didn't understand it, dragging the Json file onto the downloaded executable did nothing but turn all my screens gray forcing a restart. I just want an automatic simple solution please, I'm a simmer not a computer programmer. 🙂 Thanks 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deleted Account Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Replace this layout file with the one on your drive and it should work. This only is confirmed to be working with all scenery configs enabled. As your file was smaller, I‘m guessing you turned some options off, could you tell me which those are? And thanks for providing the log, unfortunately there was nothing helpful in there… 😞 layout.json Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
