Free Flight Corrupted

Post by DAVIDR » Sat Mar 18, 2023 4:34 pm

Hi
I have had the winter off and just come back to Condor. I decided to stick to the UK so I have downloaded the full uk landscape and it is in the landscape file. I deleted a couple other landscapes.

Now when I click FREEFLIGHT I get this:

Slovenia 2 landscape not installed/corrupted

There seems to be nothing I can do to change it.

What can I do?

Thanks

David

If you deleted Slovenia landscape - reinstal Condor

you should have licence key to put it to activate Condor

First action

"On first run you must register your copy of Condor by clicking REGISTRATION and entering your License Key. Keep your License Key safe in a secure place in case you should reinstall Condor later."

Where do I go to install and input the key?

Okay. Thanks.
I have emailed an administrator. I'm not sure it will help. I am not a gamer. I am a microlight pilot hoping to fly gliders.
This should be easy to resolve. Its not.
Thanks though.

Please follow the link I posted above. It has the instruction to download the full installer again. Just log in with the email you purchased Condor with

There's another way around this. There's a file somewhere which contains which FPL is loaded when condor loads. Just change the FPL name to one you have for a landscape you have installed job done.

I'm at my local A&E with a gammy knee (fun!) so can't check which file it is.

Found it. Not quite as I have described. Say you have UK landscape installed. Find an FPL file you know is for the UK. Rename this file to:

Flightplan.fpl

Place this file here:

Documents/Condor/Pilots/*Your Name*/

You'll have to overwrite the file in there.

Slovenia2 scenery (as issued with Condor 2) is available for download from Condor Club.

https://www.condor.club/viewscenery/242/?id=258

It is the default scenery so deleting it would cause your problem.

Just download and reinstall it. Better still use 'Condor Updater' software from Condor Club, available on this page;

Hi Guys

Paul I hope your leg is better! I may just try your route.
Andy - I have all the downloader stuff on PC that how I got UK and others when I used it last year.
Slovenia 2 is NOT on the list. I cannot download it because its not there.
Still hoping to come back to Condor but fading fast.

Open Documents\Condor\Pilots\Your Name\

Open the flightplan.fpl in an Editor

Replace the Landscape name with an existing landscape, f.x. United Kingdom

Save the flightplan.fpl

You will then be able to open Condor in freeflight and modify the flight plan

It is on the link Andy posted, but there is indeed nothing to download
The only solution is to reinstall Condor
I you have kept the CondorSetupV2XX.exe installer, install it again, then download the 2.1.8 patch and Hangar 23 from the download page (https://www.condorsoaring.com/downloads-2/) and install them.
If you don't have it follow the procedure described in the post linked to by wickid : viewtopic.php?f=29&t=20286

This will only work if Condor is properly installed (i.e. if the Slovenia2 landscape is present)
