Hi, Im the user mentioned by @IncreaseVS on the initial post.
And for clarification: The video and screenshot I made (and @IncreaseVS used here) were taken without any ORBX product installed since at the time I did not own any yet.
The vertical wave thing is (for me at least) caused when the "Water Detail" slider is at High or Ultra (I cant remember) but I used to have them at airports like TNCM aswell so I believe this isnt ORBX related. (I have my slider at Medium and they dont appear).
I havent experienced the grass on runway thing so idk about that but the "slam to ground" effect during flare seems to be a p3d native bug that happens to larger aircraft (I have only experienced it on the pmdg 777/747 and qualitywings 787) that approach sharp terrain edges (hence why its "fixed" with a texture res of >19m).
On a forum thread I created half a year ago and that is still ongoing (http://www.prepar3d.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6314&t=131079&e=1&view=unread#unread) @IncreaseVS submitted the following observations:
- default sim + large aircraft = slam bug
- orbx global + vector + NA OpenLC + large aircraft = flawless
- orbx global + vector + NA OpenLC + large aircraft + NORCAL = slam bug
In his words "Perhaps one of the Orbx products fixes it, it just so happens that NorCal over-rides it back to default when enabled. " Could this be a thing?
Please bare in mind that on my end at least this bug has plagued me for a year now and in the meantime I have changed PCs, wiped hard drives etc etc.. and the bug still follows me so I very much doubt its due to a simply remnant AFCAD file lying around somewhere or something simple like that.
Regards,
Tristan
