MrNelz Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Recently I have these textures starting to show through in all Orbx regions I own (All apart from FTX:Norway, Alaska and Canada/Pacific Fjords). I have FTX:Global, Vector and both NA and EU Open LCs. The images below were taken in the PNW region south of KSEA but this effect is repeated region wide.

Holger Sandmann Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Hi there, what you're seeing are forestry clearcuts, which retain bits of snow longer than the surrounding area (bare, cold soil) and thus stand out more in late winter/early spring. See http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/17718-this-part-of-flying-in-pnw-concerns-me/ Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrNelz Posted March 31, 2016 Author Share Posted March 31, 2016 Understood on the PNW front, Holger and thanks for taking the time to reply. However I also get these textures (Particularly the one in screenshot 2) in SoCal as well specifically around KNLC and west towards KMRY. I'll post some more Screenies once I'm back from work.

MrNelz Posted April 7, 2016 Author Share Posted April 7, 2016 Here is another example this time just outside KEGE and that definitely is not deforestation! lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted April 8, 2016 Share Posted April 8, 2016 Hi there, without coordinates (Shift-Z) I can't check the specific location. However, outside of the KEGE add-on coverage area you're looking at the default landclass file for North America and it is known to place fields and settlements in odd locations. I'd be interested in a couple of screenshots from SCA/KNLC though as there aren't any forestry clearcuts in that area. Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrNelz Posted April 8, 2016 Author Share Posted April 8, 2016 Apologies Holger I forgot to post the co-ordinates. Will pop to SCA later and take some more shots. These anomolies only seem to have happened since I installed FTX:NZ SI and NI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once, I forgot to apply the "Oceania" group before flying in New Zealand, and ran into very strange textures (such as orange mountains, if I recall correctly) there.

Captain Z Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Hey MrNelz, I've had a couple problems myself. One dealing with season textures, which is not related to this, and the other being a texture problem similar to yours. I haven't figured out the season problem yet, but I was able to fix my strange texture problem. Maybe it will work for you. I spent lots of time browsing through the support threads, trying to learn different fixes for things, etc., and came upon a post about a thing called Scenery Library Insertion Points. Apparently it was a feature of FTX central I knew nothing about, so I decided to have a look at it and see what it was all about. comparing to the pictures in the post, everything was in the right spot.......except the little blue OLC was above the orange FTX. They were both where they should be in the list, just switched. I'm not sure how, but sometime in the past month or so, when the problem suddenly appeared, Central switched them for some reason. I moved FTX back above OLC, and the texture problems were gone (mine were all over, including SCA, like you). So check out the post on Insertion Points, and see if your stuff is in order. Hopefully that's the problem, and it ends up being an easy fix for you. If not, I hope you figure things out and get things working right. http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/111777-scenery-library-insertion-point/#comment-1005214 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewart Hobson Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Captain Z, If you happened to have downloaded and installed OpenLC NA Canada/Alaska, that would account for your OLC entry being misplaced. Installation instructions advised the user to manually place the OLC entry in its correct location in FTX Central. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brkr Posted April 10, 2016 Share Posted April 10, 2016 I would like to add that I'm seeing this as well. This area is around KASE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
