Tobus Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Hi, I bought the OpenLC EU textures (Transaction ID: 59084952977b7) but textures look decidedly bad, with stuff running through eachother and large swaths of out of place textures. See attached screenshots. As far as I can see texture cfg's and position of folders in scenery lib are correct in my FSX:SE setup. Any pointers how to fix?

Nick Cooper Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 Hello and welcome to the forums. What other FTX products do you have installed please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobus Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 Hello Nick, see screenshot of my account. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Thanks. Please try setting your FTX and OLC entries in the insertion point tool that you will find on the settings page of FTX Central. The FTX icon should be below the lowest of any other addon scenery you may have and the OLC icon below the FTX one. Don't forget to click on save. There are other things to try if this doesn't work.

Tobus Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 Looks like they are already Nick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Thanks, that does indeed look fine. Next, please try the Force Migration, also on the settings page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobus Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 done, looking worse now. blocks of textures now also flicking to something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Thanks again. Please now try the terrain.cfg repair that you will find here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobus Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 Done, same result as previous post. I've deselected the all OLC entries in my scenery lib to check results. Same thing. Makes me think not OLC but Germany North maybe is the culprit? I'm disabling that too to see results this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobus Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 Ok further testing: OLC and Germany North on --> crap OLC and Germany North off --> ok OLC off and Germany North on --> crap OLC on and Germany North off --> ok OLC and Germany North on (again) --> crap (again) So it seems Germany North is my problem and not OLC Europe. Don't know if this helps any? Looking forward to more tips to get this sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Hello,Perhaps you can try re-installing Germany North? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobus Posted May 5, 2017 Author Share Posted May 5, 2017 I was thinking about that too. Can I do uninstall and reinstall via ftxcentral? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Yes, if you select uninstall and then install again, that should do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tobus Posted May 6, 2017 Author Share Posted May 6, 2017 uninstalled and reinstalled via ftxcentral: still crap. I'm at a loss now.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Hello, This seems to be being a bit of a challenge. Could you try unticking all your FTX scenery library entries and see if the problem is apparent still? Ideally, try somewhere where there are no FTX products. South Africa perhaps. Another slight possibility could be your Orbx libraries. Try deleting ORBX\User Documents\Versions\FTX_AA_ORBXLIBS.txt. Run FTX Central and you should be able to re-install the libraries.

Tobus Posted May 6, 2017 Author Share Posted May 6, 2017 I have no problems outside of the German area. Only disabling Germany North entries in the library "solves" the weird texturing in that area. Disabling other FTX stuff has no effect: no problems with texturing with them either enabled or disabled. I did as you asked with the orbxlibs.txt and let ftxcentral reinstall the libs: no result.

Nick Cooper Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Thanks. Perhaps the re-installation did not go well. Can you uninstall Germany North in FTX Central but before you install it again, go to ORBX\FTX_EU and delete the four FTX_EU_GEN folders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobus Posted May 6, 2017 Author Share Posted May 6, 2017 I uninstalled and made sure the GEN folders are indeed gone. Restarted FSX and looked at area around Berlin and Munchen. Both ok. Closed FSX:SE and reinstalling GEN via ftx central (too bad it's sooo sloooooww). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Plenty of time for me to keep my fingers crossed then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobus Posted May 6, 2017 Author Share Posted May 6, 2017 Re-install yielded the same botched up stuff. So I went looking for other stuff in Germany. I have Most German Airfields from Aerosoft, as well as German Landmarks, also from Aerosoft. Both have landclass files incorporated. I have switched them all off and seem to have better textures now. See pics below. I'll go and tinker some more with these installations, enabling and disabling to view results. Are any clashes known between Germany North and Aerosofts's German Airfields and/or German Landmarks? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Hello, that does looks very much better. Essentially, two landclass products will never work together. There is a whole topic here that might help. Should I mark this as resolved, since you seem to have finally found the problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobus Posted May 6, 2017 Author Share Posted May 6, 2017 Hi Nick, yea I think you can. I just have to find what exactly bites with Germany North (and maybe OLC Europe), but nothing seems wrong with only orbx stuff activated. Thanks for all the help!

Nick Cooper Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 You're welcome, I am pleased that there is eventually an answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobus Posted May 6, 2017 Author Share Posted May 6, 2017 Sorry for taking up your time, I should have found this myself on the forum. But ... further testing on my part reveals the landclass files in German Landmarks package are the culprit, not the ones coming with German Airfields. You might want to link this bit to the general page on compatibility index, as it isn't shown here yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
