Bram Stikkel Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Because I flew a lot from the default or ORBX free airports version of CYSE Squamish, I decided to buy the payware version. Strange effect however is, the commercial version clearly is positioned below the level of the surroundings. The freeware version did not have this issue. The difference is estimated only a ten feet, but it results in scrubs that soar 10 feet above the ground, a soilwall around the runway and platform and more issues. I tried to solve it by running the Vector Configurator ofcourse, but the problem remains. Then I have searched for other versions of CYSE that are activated, but exept from the ORBX freeware version, there are none. Then I deactivated the files from the ORBX freeware version, re-ran the Vector Configurator. Unfortunately this all did not solve the problem. Can you tell me how to solve it? Can it be a Global Ultimate Next Generation FTX caused problem? Thanks for the help. Bram Stikkel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc_Z Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Make sure your mesh is set to 5cm. In AEC, try disabling if it is enabled or vice-versa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bram Stikkel Posted November 26, 2018 Author Share Posted November 26, 2018 Thanks, Doug Sawatzky and Doc_Z. About AEC: it does not show up there, neither in the disabled nor the abled column. Should it ? I will also see, if the mesh value is the cause, did not think about that before you mentioned it. Doug, I will switch off the FS Global Ultimate Next Generation North America part and see what happens. I will let you know the results... Regards!

Bram Stikkel Posted November 30, 2018 Author Share Posted November 30, 2018 Hello Doug and Doc_Z, In the meantime I tested the possible solutions. Switching off FS Global Ultimate Next Gen FTX: no visible change concerning the problems I ran into with Squamish. The bushes keep soaring in the air along the runway and the airport keeps look sunken in the surrounding. Changing the mesh resolution from 2 meter to 5 meter: one sees differences in the surrounding area and the detailsize of the directly surrounding mesh, but still soaring scrubs. I experimented a bit more with various mesh values, but the problem stays. Strange thing is, that the grass objects seem to be at the correct level while the scrubs at the same position are about two meters in the air. Should the airport become visible in Vector AEC after installation? It does not. Thanks for the thinking help Bram Stikkel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 I think I remember this being discussed in the past, but I would need to wait until I get home later this afternoon to do a search on the forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bram Stikkel Posted December 1, 2018 Author Share Posted December 1, 2018 Hello Doug, if there would be a solution, that would be great. No hurry, ofcourse. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Hi Bram Apparently mesh product does have an affect and is the most likely culprit causing the issue as per the below topic. And no, it does not become visible in Vector AEC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Hi there, have a look at the screenshots on the product page, CYSE does have several levels because the airport is cut into a slope: https://orbxdirect.com/product/cyse The situation is a bit exaggerated due to the requirement of needing a flat ground surface but the real-world airport has those levels too: https://goo.gl/maps/14m1ewrPVzq Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bram Stikkel Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 Hi Holger and Doug, Thanks for your efforts to help me solve the problem. I really appreciate. It corssed my mind indeed, that maybe the surface is the way it belongs - with needed exaggeration - and that maybe the only problem is, the bushed in the air. I will have a look at the topic you pointed at, Doug and see, if this provides a solution. I will report back again. Thanks again! Bram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Bram I also have FS Global Ultimate Next Gen and can confirm that when I disable it in my scenery library the bushes return to the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bram Stikkel Posted December 2, 2018 Author Share Posted December 2, 2018 Doug, I will try again. What I did is, switching off the NA part of FSGlobalUltimate NG and then close the scenery library again. I realize now, I did not re-run the vector config tool after that. Did you, or did it work without rerunning AEC? If this is the solution indeed, it must be possible to switch off only the relevant *.bgl in the NA directory. Do you know how to find out, which one that should be? Thanks! Bram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Bram No, I did not run the Vector AEC, but I also switched off the local mesh as well as the NA. Sorry, I do not know how to isolate the .bgl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Hi there, Squamish lies within the sim's QMID7 grid cell 15x14 so a file with "1514" or "015014" in its name would probably be the one you're looking for. Here are some general tips how to find local QMID7 cell identifiers: https://orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/154017-double-bridge-san-mateo/?do=findComment&comment=1403913 Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bram Stikkel Posted December 3, 2018 Author Share Posted December 3, 2018 Doug and Holger, both thank you for the very practical information you provide. I am going to switch the correct mesh bgl OFF and see what happens. Thanks for the tutorial too ! I will report back to close this item. Greetings!

Bram Stikkel Posted February 23, 2019 Author Share Posted February 23, 2019 Admitted, I have not been very quick in reporting back at this issue. Actually, even with your helpfull information, I have not managed to find the correct mesh file and after that I left the case for a while. If you have more idears to find it...
