Hi Guys

I had a quick look at Agadir airport in Morrocco and I found I have no airport there ! The planes are on the ground sitting and moving on sand ! So I thought I would look at Tunis/Tunisia and found the same. I also have airports in Algiers, Gambia, Liberia,Namibia,Niger,Nigeria missing. I am running FS9 and have tried copying my Africa file from my back up FS9/scenery/Afri to my FS9 on local disc but its still the same. I suspect its an Afcad issue as there are no airport buildings/Runways and the problem is only in some African countries. Any ideas Guys/Gals ?

No I haven't disabled any scenery but tried to add an Agadir scenery from http://www.freewarescenery.com/fs2004.html which I have done many times. When I re started FS9 it said an area number was missing and then continued to load, but I never made a note of the a missing number before it loaded or I could have got it from my back up HD. I just wondered if there was an file in FS9/scenery that covered North Africa eg: Afri

Either that, or your loading priority is off. I would hate to say this, but a re-install might be required.

Is it possible to just copy Africa scenery from install disc or from another PC?

Agadir is in \scenery\Afri\scenery\AP945210.BGL

Can you post up your scenery.cfg file? Actually, might be better to add it as an attachment due to the size.

Hey Joe....I found the problem I think. I read on an Avsim or Flight Sim forum where someone had a similar problem and someone suggested un ticking all the red ticks in the Addon Scenery and then add them back one at a time. After un ticking all the addon scenery, I had North African airports back, so after re red ticking the addon scenery boxes one at a time and restarting I narrowed it down to Dubrovnik airport addon ! I have now deleted it....Pity as it was quite good scenery. Hmmmmm maybe I could still have it and then simply un tick it when I do an Agadir or Marrakech flight

Glad to hear you have it working, Alan.

That's an option, just leave it disabled until you want to fly there.
