MD_Flier Posted November 24, 2016 Share Posted November 24, 2016 Happy Thanksgiving, Dan. Sorry you are having problems. I was just looking at your screen shots, and I don't think there is a 'problem' with how you software is installed. It looks to me like a simple settings issue causing the wrong elevations in your photos. The rest seems fine. Is that an accurate assessment? If so, I have 2 suggestions that I think you should try before doing anything else with the installation. Go into the FSX settings and look at your mesh slider settings. Make sure that mesh resolution is set to 5m or less. I'm not sure if the mesh complexity slider matters, but mine is set to 100%. If you have FTX Vector installed, run the Vector control panel app in FTX Central and run the elevation correction routine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirDan Posted November 24, 2016 Author Share Posted November 24, 2016 Happy Thanksgiving to you , MD-Filer These problems have been a learning experience. Sorry but I have already reinstalled Steam , FSX:steam and atm I am going to redown load orbx. I will after this double check the mesh slider settings and will run FXT Vector elevation correction routine again. I had done this all once before and will repeat the process this time. Cheers and thanks for the post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at the screenshot I would have to agree , but for some reason I remember more buildings at this airport before this all started. Having NA Southern Alaska / NA Pacific Northwest among the few , really thought it added more to the airport could be wrong in this case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
