A forum search helps
because English is my 3rd or 4th language I would not have guessed the word 'bleeding' in a million years ... but now that I know it makes perfect sense.
I've read the posts and it seems the long and the short of the story is that Orbx doesn't know how to fix it.

... is there anybody out there?

It seems EGHI has a seam problem in and around the airport.

Maybe Orbx could have a look what might be the trigger and eliminate it.
... and maybe it is the same reason why the lights are floating over Innsbruck - it is such a passion killer to fly into this wonderful airport at night. And I don't have any Manual Cache for LOWI.

Out of curiosity where would one find said scenery cache sir?
The Manual Scenery Cache is found under OPSIONS, and DATA, and at the bottom. Don't confuse it with Rolling Cache. There are excellent videos on YouTube how to use Manual Scenery Cache. What it basically does, is to enable you to download specific areas of the world onto your PC and therefore no need to 'stream' it when flying there.

I accidently stumbled upon a post that suggested to delete any manual scenery cache that was created for a specific region when installing new scenery over it and voilà ... light problem SOLVED. well, so it seems. Just did a quick low-pass over the city and although it was very late it was not as apparent as earlier the night. Will check and recheck again later today.
Quite a handy tip to remember when installing scenery where msc was created.

Cape Town is also known for the impressive and famous 'Lions Head' used for it's hiking trails to the summit and interestingly it's slopes act as a launch site for paragliders.
Don't know if you know but there's a Lion's Head on flightsim.to and it blends in nice with the new Orbx scenery. Hopefully Orbx will update CPT and bring this iconic 'beacon' to life.

A HUGE thank you for Cape Town Landscape ... we've waited 25 years for someone to bring this beautiful city to our flightsim community. Seeing that it's my hometown and being a pilot myself, it is such a joy to fly around and around the city and beaches in all the splendour that Cape Town has to offer.
It is, however, a shame to discover that at night the lights over the city are floating in the air ... it doesn't do it with default scenery. Any possibility for a fix in order to see your new lighting for the city in all its glory?

Just a side-note about Caernarfon (EGCK) and a question about the 'real' airport ... who on Earth will build TWO enormous wind turbines between two runways and only meters away from the longest runway? REALLY? It's like having a fuel storage in a tunnel or a permanent oil rig at a harbour entrance.
Give those engineers the Nobel Price for Idiocy.

try "5112_OBJ_ExtrusionBridges_Primary.bgl", in the same folder as mentioned above.
This could have a ripple effect to a lot of third party scenery like Boston (FlyTampa + Aerosoft City) and KJFK + KSEA (Drzewiecki) to just name a few that jump to mind.

Instead, you could re-activate the checkbox(es) and then just manually deactivate Vector's bridges file for the San Francisco area, named "1518_OBJ_ExtrusionBridges_Highway.bgl", located in "\ORBX\FTX_VECTOR\FTX_VECTOR_OBJ\scenery". Renaming its .bgl extension to .OFF should do the trick.
Oh GREAT! The answer I was hoping for. Thank you ... will painstakingly make sure the correct one is *off
Thank you.

@Nick Cooper - your suggestion fixed the problem. Over and above (literally) switching off bridges, will it have any other influence on any other openLC scenery or will it just be a road across a river?

Is the extra bridge still there if you disable bridges in the Vector control panel?
Aaaah very good point ... will check and report back.

Do you have Vector?

please don't waste your time, one transaction number is enough and I have added it to your profile.
Thanks Nick,
now what about those double bridges?
NCA is disabled at the moment in order to fly FlightBeam's KSFO and have Aerosoft's SF City scenery enabled.

I will sit later today and add all ± 50 transaction codes to my signature ...

Is there a reason why there will be a double San Mateo bridge in San Francisco? First I thought it is the Aerosoft SanFran_City scenery but after disabled it was still there. Then I thought it is the FlightBeam KSFO scenery, and after that was disabled it was still there. The only thing left is ORBX OpenLC_US
Any help?

Boryspil (UKBB) ILS
in Microsoft Flight Simulator Support Forum
Posted
Just to let you know that the ILS for Boryspil (UKBB) is so far OFF that with the low visibility I've ended up crashing in a field somewhere between Jupiter and Mars.
What is it with MSFS's ILS systems that it's so untrustworthy ...?
PS: NO, I'm not using Navigraph NavData because MSFS is confused as it is. No reason to complicate things even further.
