Hi everyone, I just released the conversion of KMEM yesterday and there seem to be a lot problems that people are having, so I thought we might open this into a discussion/help thread. People have mentioned the following problems up to this point to me. I will probably only get around to looking into this properly this weekend, so I hope that some of you guys out there can help out here.

known problems

-FedEx Loader is there but not running
-Forest exclusion zone needs to be set
-objects are missing (open scenery x)

who is running this on V8 or V9, are other plugins causing the problem ?

ok first problem seems solved

if the FedEx Loader is not running, remove the Airport Navigator plugin, thanks Dave

On the Fedex loader issue, I've just discovered that disabling the Airport Navigator plugin(should you have that installed) fixes the animation. [V9]

I don't have anything to do with the plugin side of FedEx Loader I ran the scenery on V8 at work and all worked fine for me although I did download the new placement folder for OpensceneryX 1.8 first just to make sure maybe if yours is not 1.8 version them you should re-zip with this new placement files but as for my object file they all seemed to be working fine... there maybe a clash with the hotkeys on Airport Nav plugin you maybe able to change these in the Init file of dataref4 but Sandy Barbour should be able to answer this.

I'm getting a lot of people PM'ing me about them not getting any scenery or not seeing anything. Please be a bit more precise about this so we can help a bit better. First tip is that if you are not seeing anything is that you just don't have the Open Scenery X installed in the right place. After downloading the Open Scenery X installer, let it run. either it will downlaod a whole new package or update the old one you already have. This OpenSceneryX should then be placed in your Custom Scenery folder.

I will get exclusion zone for forets in the next update.

I run 8.64 on a dual Mac, Airport nav I took out. My Open scenery X is the latest dated may 10th. and I see the bottom conveyor roller working, also flags moving, but no conveyor boxes or man moving. Open scenery is working. Other than that it looks like a fantastic translation. The idea of the aviation museum was a great idea. thank you for all your good work.

I think we established that it's likely to be some kind of plugin conflict. Try disabling other plugins and adding them back in one by one until you identify the offender.

-Forest exclusion zone needs to be set

If users are having issues with trees appearing where they shouldn't then you have to place forest exclusions as you have realised. Also bear in mind that there is a third party US Forests package out there and if people have it installed, the interfering trees may be placed by that rather than the default scenery. If this is so, you will also have to advise users to make sure that your Memphis package is alphabetically before the US Forestry package in the Custom Scenery folder by renaming one or the other if required, otherwise your forest exclusions will not have the desired effect.

Problem solved. One of the two plugins required to make it work had not unzipped. Now it works fine. Fantastic Airport lots to see.
