Leslie 2 Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 In the P3Dv4.3 scenery library I notice that Simwings Malaga Airport professional is the only airport that is showing the enable box in grey and itv cannot be moved or edited. I have ORBX and checked for LEMG files in the FTX Global and found none. Is there an explanation for this and how it can be rectified. Thanks in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no way of modifying the position within the scenery library of such and add-on. You can enable and disable it through the "Options | Add-ons,,," menu.

Leslie 2 Posted July 8, 2018 Author Share Posted July 8, 2018 Hi Tom, Thanks for finding time to answer. OK but is there any other method to register other than through the "addon.xml", as perhaps such method could have an impact on other simulator addons? regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs Tom A320 4915 Posted July 8, 2018 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted July 8, 2018 This is the way Lockheed Martin wants add-ons to get registered into their simulator. Add-ons that require a certain position in relation to other add-ons are currently still bound to the former "scenery.cfg" method. Add-ons that use the new method do not require a certain position in relation to other add-ons and can be safely used without any worries at all.
