Ariel Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 I've hit a problem with textures in a particular area in GES. I have not seen this before with earlier versions of P3Dv4, so it might be something new in the latest version only... I have just installed a clean full version of the latest v4.5.1. I have reinstalled all my ORBX stuff including Vector, Global, EU Landclass, and GES plus other regions. That and a few aircraft, Traffic Global and some third-party airfields airfields. All seems well except for a problem I've stumbled on, along the south border of GES. See these images - one high level and one lower down:- The problem is with GES - de-activate GES and the black textures go too. I have deleted and re-installed GES with a new download, but no change. Is there anyone there using GES in v4.5.1 who can take a look to confirm the problem or otherwise? The rest of the GES area seems fine. The problem is in an area from roughly 11 deg E to 12 deg 50' E in a band about 20 miles wide running along the GES boundary in the Alps. They are north of the Inn valley, but flying to Innsbruck from Munich will take you across some of the problem. My scenery layers are all fine and ordered as they should be.

Doug Sawatzky Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Hi Ariel First please check the FTXC3 control panel settings for your GES and LOWI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariel Posted May 30, 2019 Author Share Posted May 30, 2019 Ah, ok Doug. Nothing seen relevant in the GES options, but I have turned on GES compatibility in LOWI (I'd long forgotten that one). I'll test this now but it takes time to load! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariel Posted May 30, 2019 Author Share Posted May 30, 2019 Nothing doing Doug. However, I cannot make the radio-button selection in the LOWI options "stick". I select the button on for compatibility with GES installed, and exit. Next time I check the light is missing again. (There's no light in the alternative Global-only button, either). I can't help doubting if this would affect textures over such a large area, and LOWI itself looks fine. I will try de-activatng LOWI just to make sure and see if anything changes.

Doug Sawatzky Posted May 30, 2019 Share Posted May 30, 2019 Sounds good, and uninstalling and reinstalling the product usually fixes the control panel issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariel Posted May 30, 2019 Author Share Posted May 30, 2019 Bingo. De-activating LOWI seems to have worked! (Fingers crossed). I did do a files verify just before this, but I will now delete it and re-download LOWI again. Wish I had time to fly! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ariel Posted May 30, 2019 Author Share Posted May 30, 2019 And all still seems good... I've reinstalled LOWI and will now unfreeze my test aircraft and divert there to check it out. Many thanks Doug. Two heads are definitely a lot better than one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
