bmaack Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 I have been fighting with this for a while...I have also gone through the forum to see if anyone else is experiencing what I am, but could not fine any. I have noticed that both the taxiway & runway textures do not show for these two airports... I currently have installed the following region specific ORBX products: Southern Cal. Vector Global L70 Other 3rd Party productas: FSDT - KLAX Latinvfr - Orange County Sim720 - KSBA LongBeach - Freeware Ontario - Freeware Pilot's FS Global 2010 FTX There may be other airports where this problem exists, but these are the ones I utilize a lot.

Penzoil3 Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 1. Install the latest library files. 2. Open FTX Central and apply a region as active. 3. set your mesh in FSX to 5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmaack Posted March 25, 2016 Author Share Posted March 25, 2016 I did what you suggested, but the outcome is the same. I reduced my terrain resolution from 1m to 5m, with no change in appearance. Any other suggesttions? Attached are my scenery settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Hi there, this type of issue typically happens if another add-on for that airport uses a different reference altitude but has higher display priority than our version. If you don't know which add-on that might be run a Windows Explorer search of your entire FSX directory for all .bgl files that include the airport's ICAO as part of their names -- e.g., search term *KVNY*.bgl -- and post a list or screenshot of the results with full file and folder names. An example of that approach is Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmaack Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 Did a search of my c:\ drive... here are the findings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Hi there, well, those are exactly the files that should be active for those two airports given your combination of add-ons so I'm not sure why the taxiway/runway textures are AWOL. Does the road tunnel at KVNY with its portal embedded at either side of the airport show correctly? Check your scenery library order against the post below. If that looks OK then I'd suggest temporarily deactivating any add-on folders above the Orbx FTX block to check whether they have anything to do with the issue.

bmaack Posted March 26, 2016 Author Share Posted March 26, 2016 I believe the road tunnel is there, in addition, ORBX sceneries have a higher priority than all the other addons...see attached screen shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewart Hobson Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Somebody can correct me on this, but all your addon airports and sceneries should be placed above the Orbx stuff. Use FTX Central to adjust your insertion point so that the Orbx label/entry is placed below your addons. You can see from Voyager's post above that this should be the case.

Holger Sandmann Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 Hi there, whether the third-party airports need to be above the Orbx/FTX block or not depends on whether there's any spatial overlap. If that isn't the case then the order isn't important. The presence of the tunnel portals means that the flattens are correct. I really don't know what might cause taxiways and runways to disappear in this manner. Try deactivating the FTXAA_AIRPORTS entry. Both KVNY and KSMO were previously released as Global freeware airports. The SCA installer is meant to remove any duplicates (and your file search didn't show any either) but who knows...

bmaack Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 I tried that...same result. Today I decided to do a VFR flight from Agua Dulce (L70) to view the greater LA landscape, after disabling a file from FSDreamteam's LAXv2 (TERRENOFSX.bgl)...hoping that that was part of the problem. What I uncovered while flying is a number of airports without runway textures visible...here is a list of some of them...KSZP(Santa Paula), KCMA(Camarillo), KOXR(Oxnard), Point Mugu NAS. In addition, I noticed that no autogen is visible around Agua Dulce even with it at maximum settings. I think at this pointiii it is better for me to do a complete rebuild of my scenery folder...there is a corrupt file in here and I not sure what it is at this point....

bmaack Posted October 15, 2016 Author Share Posted October 15, 2016 After a long break from flightsimming, every ORBX scenery was reinstalled, and KVNY & KSMO are now looking good... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
