ahsmatt7 Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 I bought the NORCAL region today and I manually downloaded the file and then went ahead and installed in through FTX central. Once FTX central said the region was installed, I modified some things in the configuration option for performance tweaking. I fired up P3d v3.4 and loaded up KSFO. I looked around and it is still default scenery. I am downloading the FTX libraries as we speak. What did I do wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Harris Posted November 26, 2016 Share Posted November 26, 2016 Hi and welcome, You will need to have the Orbxlibs installed yes, as these contain most of the control files and all the custom objects, autogen and landclass systems for all of our products Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahsmatt7 Posted December 3, 2016 Author Share Posted December 3, 2016 Hello again, Ive been out flying for a few days. I installed the libraries and the scenery does indeed show up. I have another problem though. A big one in fact. The scenery will load unbelievably slow now. Not just ORBX but for all the default terrain around the world. It looks like a smudged crayon picture. Is there anyway to fix this? I have uninstalled the scenery package and had to reinstall P3d content and scenery to fix the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Lincoln Posted December 4, 2016 Share Posted December 4, 2016 Hello, Could you please attach an image with coordinates of the affected area, are you using a HDD or an SSD? I will leave a link below to attach a screenshot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahsmatt7 Posted December 5, 2016 Author Share Posted December 5, 2016 Hello, Could you please attach an image with coordinates of the affected area, are you using a HDD or an SSD? I will leave a link below to attach a screenshot. coordinates? its the whole entire scenery area as well as the entire world as far as the default terrain is concerned. The textures are clear for about 2 to 3 minutes until i fly over any other part of the scenery that the airplane wasnt originally over. This is also affecting all default terrain textures and scenery textures. Once i uninstalled the product, i had to do a clean content and scenery install to cure the problem of the default scenery textures.

Nick Cooper Posted December 6, 2016 Share Posted December 6, 2016 Thanks, that should display the scenery perfectly well. Do I correctly understand that installing Northern California also ruined the rest of the default scenery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do I correctly understand that installing Northern California also ruined the rest of the default scenery? yes that is whats happening. Also here's an update for you. I reinstalled the scenery and all is well for the most part. There are times where at 250 knots at 4000 ft, where the textures arent loading to full resolution and its a blurry mess. However, I now notice with the default terrain that individual tiles are showing up as complete squares. The default textures show up as really blocky in terms of boundaries between trees and desert. For example, where there is a large portion of trees (the default tree texture) up against a desert texture, instead of having a smooth transition, the tree texture outline is just blocks and squares. Also, the textures seem to change rapidly and sometimes ill see squares of textures that are extremely weird looking. I tried letting FTX central rebuild the terrain.cfg file as per the stickied post but to no avail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ahsmatt7 Posted December 15, 2016 Author Share Posted December 15, 2016 no response in a week? Im not to thrilled with the support. I had to do a complete reinstall of p3d. my exe.xml got messed up after this orbx install. My terrain got messed up after this orbx install. Long story short, im not touching anything from orbx. Sadly, this was my first product. Most assuredly my only product from orbx. $27 down the drain... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Hello, You might try refreshing your terrain.cfg file, as detailed in this topic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what lead me to doing a full reinstall of p3d v3.4. I mentioned this in my previous post with the pictures.Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahsmatt7 Posted January 9, 2017 Author Share Posted January 9, 2017 can anyone from orbx respond to this issue? ive been patient over the holidays but this is ridiculous. Is this how you treat your customers? Im not going away. Either i get support or I want a refund. I have not been able to use the product i purchased since I bought it.
