Scaber Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Starting a fllight at EGHA I am experiencing elevations issues as shown in the attached screen shots. I'm running : EU England TrueEarth Great Britain South Global Airports All the global range apart from Open LC Mesh South America I've run the migration tool and Vector Config to reset airport elevations - but checking on the list EGHA doesn't seem to be present on either the enabled side, or the disabled side. Any suggestions would be good. This is a fresh install of P3D v4.4.16.27077 on a new computer. I haven't found any problems with other airports (as yet!)

Nick Cooper Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Hello, as a starting point, please take a look in scenery\world\scenery for EGHA and remove or disable any files that you might find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Nick, I should have remembered that technique - maybe increasing old age is making its effects known . . . . I renamed 000_EGHA_FTX_Exclude_Alt.BGL to 000_EGHA_FTX_Exclude_Alt.BGL.old and that has fixed the elevation issues. There only remains a minor problem with two sets of runway numbers on the threshold. One from the photoreal, and the other from the added airport autogen stuff.

Nick Cooper Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 The brown default strip should not be there at all. The developers have set the runway width at 0 feet and it should look like this: You should check your scenery library order and for any other versions of EGHA that might be hiding somewhere. I notice that the spurious runway does not even line up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaber Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 Well, no luck so far. There are some EGHA entries in FTX_EU and FTX_Vector but disableing these in the Scenery Library has no effect on what I'm seeing. I've also renamed some of the files, as shown below, in the World/scenery folder and THe Orbx vector forder as well as some in Orbx/FTX_AU - not sure why EGHA is appearing there? I've also: deactivated all my add-on non Orbx scenery unbinstalled the global airports pack checked that the FTX entries are below my last add-on scenery Checked that OpenLC entries are below the FTX entry Checked that TE GB south entries are above the FTX_EU_ENG entries I'm now confused as to where this default brown strip is coming from. It's not really a major worry for me but in the back of my mind is the thought that maybe there is a more serious fault somewhere else!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce e Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 There is an issue here! To replicate Gregs problem I unticked EGHA in the Sc Lib (as he does not have the payware EGHA) & I get exactly the same elevation issues as he showed in Picture #1 of his post. I then followed Nick's advice & isolated the "000_EGHA_FTX_Exclude_Alt.BGL" & got exactly the same doubled up runway as shown in Gregs picture It would be very interesting ti see if anyone else could replicate this. The mystery is still to be solved! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scaber Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 Interesting Bruce. Thanks for checking up on this. Interestingly, I did consider getting the payware EGHA to see if that solved the problem! It seems that it would have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce e Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 Can someone, preferably who doesn’t have EGHA payware, but who is using TEGB S in P3D check for elevation issue as per pics in post. It would be good to pass this back to the makers if indeed it is a fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Hello, if you have only the TEGB version of EGHA, remove 000_EGHA_FTX_Exclude_Alt.BGL and place the attached file into ORBX\FTX_EU\FTX_EU_!GBS_05_SCENERY\scenery, letting it overwrite, this will remove the second set of numbers, ADE_FTX_GBS_EGHA.bgl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
