fisheye Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Small glitch on my computer using FTX Pago Pago. See screenshot showing Ocean flowing up the side of hill. Follow Rwy 8 straight out to tip of island. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fisheye Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 While exploring my new Pago Pago scenery package I went to the FAQ Airport and found more ocean climbing up the side of the hill next to the airport. It actually at first looked like the breakers splashing against the rocks but then I realized that it wasn't really intended to be there.

Nick Cooper Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Hello, It should look like this Do you have any other scenery installed that might be conflicting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Harris Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Hi Fisheye, Do you by any chance have 'Pilots FS Global Ultimate' terrain mesh installed? if so please read here: Otherwise if not we'll investigate further, as it looks like the installation may not have fully completed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick; I have all addon sceneries turned off in the library except for FTX. I also have no addon mesh files in the Scenery\World\Scenery folder. I was wondering if maybe it is in a FTX folder possibly like Papua New Guinea which I have not unchecked yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have the same water effect up the hillside even with all addon scenery unchecked in the Library and no added mesh in the Scenery\World\Scenery folder. I am out of ideas except for the thought of it being in a FTX folder. None of those are unchecked. I will try by unchecking Papa New Guinea folder.

Tim Harris Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Hi Fisheye, Something is conflicting on your system as the entire Samoan island chain was removed, then completely re-built from scratch for this project Can you try moving the FTX_AA_NSTU folder in the scenery library up to the top (number 1) as a test? And also if you use FTX Vector, run the Auto-AEC function Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also if you use FTX Vector, run the Auto-AEC function Tim; I will try this next however I just spent the last four hours trying everything I know to fix this including unchecking everything in the scenery library including all of the FTX folders except NSTU and still have the same effects. I mean everything, other than required files. I then unchecked NSTU and went back to the stock scenery and no water problems, went back to FTX and they are back again. There is nothing more I know how to do to fix this. Norm Tim; I just tried moving NSTU to the very top of the Library to No. 1 and still have the issue. I also use Vector AEC every time I make any changes. Just so you know I have been into MSFS for over 20 years since before BAO sold to Microsoft. I am not a programmer but know FS files very well. Thanks, Norm Tim; I think I forgot to mention that I don't have the Pilots Global Mesh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Harris Posted January 13, 2016 Share Posted January 13, 2016 Hi Norm, Been through a bunch of tests to try and replicate the issue seen in your screenshot, and I think I found it, setting my mesh to 19/38m produced the same rising water issue Please go into your FSX settings and ensure your mesh and texture settings are as shown in the picture below, most importantly the terrain mesh slider needs to be set to 5m for all Orbx products Cheers!

fisheye Posted January 21, 2016 Author Share Posted January 21, 2016 Tim; The one thing I didn't think to check and it worked, thanks for your support. I had set these sliders trying to get the Orbx Friday Harbor airport to not give me OOM"s and forgot to reset them for Pago Pago. My mind is not as sharp as it used to be.
