CoastPilot Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 Hello! When I first bought the Oregon scenery I was tickled to notice the fancy refurbished Tillamook Creamery was represented. I recently updated to the latest scenery and happened to notice the creamery building has reverted to it's earlier state. Truly something only a coast guy would care about, but thought I'd pass it along. 1
Rob Ainscough Posted October 3, 2019 Posted October 3, 2019 Interesting, I was at Tillamook Creamery about 2-3 weeks ago with my wife and mother-in-law ... I'll have to check this out ... the buildings in the 1st picture are accurate, but it suffers a purple shift. The 2nd image has no purple shift, but is missing the actual POI. Perhaps this is how Orbx addressed the "purple haze" and had to revert back to a different imagery base? Cheers, Rob.
Bibimbap Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 I'm having trouble with the order of my scenery packs. I own TrueEarth Oregon (SD) and just updated to version 1.1.0. I also have some Ortho4XP files installed (but none for Oregon - only other states). Upon the installation of 1.1.0, it seems the scenery_packs file order got mixed up and I can't seem to resolve it. Right now, some of the custom Orbx models are displaying properly, while others are not. For example, I can see Autzen Stadium in Eugene, but the Tillamook Air Museum building is just a generic warehouse-looking block, rather than the custom model. Can I please get some assistance reordering these correctly? Thank you.

Doug Sawatzky Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 Hi, welcome to the forums Could you please attach a copy of your scenery_packs.ini file and I am sure our resident expert @Jon Clarke will be happy to help. 1

Bibimbap Posted October 10, 2019 Posted October 10, 2019 Thanks for your response. That doesn't seem to have obviously changed anything. I'm still missing the Tillamook Air Museum. That's the only unique building I'm aware of that's missing, but I haven't had time to go looking for others. I ran "verify files" in Orbx and that also doesn't seem to have changed anything. I'm still apparently missing some custom buildings.
Jon Clarke Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 What is indicating that you are missing some custom buildings? What is the source of the info you have that for example Tillamook Air Museum is missing? @Tony Wroblewski Tony can you advise if there is a list of POI/custom buildings in Oregon SD. The OP says for example that some custom buildings are missing like Tillamook Air Museum, but I don't know if that building is actually modelled in Oregon SD. My assumption is that if you run Verify Files then any missing files like some custom buildings, would have been downloaded and installed. @BibimbapWhat is the size of your Oregon SD install folders? My copy reads: Custom= 2.02GB 2187 files, 48 folders Overlay= 1.53GB 6282 files 91 folders Orthos=54.8GB 50041 files, 5folders

Could you be referring to the "Tillamook Air Museum" that was once a "Tillamook Creamery"? If its missing it should indicate that in your " log.txt" file. Edited October 11, 2019 by Sentry11

Are you actually seeing any landmarks, e.g. In Portland are there any custom buildings at all?

Nick Cooper Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Hello, I find that I am completely unable to make the building disappear. I wonder if you might have something else installed that is inhibiting it?
Sentry11 Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 For what its worth, here is what get for KTMK.....Similar to Google Earth's view
Jon Clarke Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 There is definitely some anomaly here. I see the rust coloured building with "Museum" written on it, BUT it appears to be sat on top of the white building that @Sentry11shows in his pic. My scenery_packs.ini is correctly layered. I then ran Verify Files for TE Oregon SD and got what you see in picture number 2. No rust coloured building but the default one with trees growing in it ! What buildings do you see @Nick Cooper or @Tony Wroblewski
Nick Cooper Posted October 11, 2019 Posted October 11, 2019 Hello Jon, just the museum building on its own. Apologies, the same as you.

Jon Clarke Posted October 12, 2019 Posted October 12, 2019 @Tony Wroblewski Is it a TE Oregon issue or an Orbx Central problem? Initially I have the rust coloured building with Museum written on it in view but sitting on top of a default building, and then after Verifying Files I end up with just the default building?
Tony Wroblewski Posted October 13, 2019 Posted October 13, 2019 I'm currently travelling home and I'll check when I get back later today. It seems like an install problem, but if it was corrupt, there would have been a popup error message.

Jon Clarke Posted November 19, 2019 Posted November 19, 2019 @Nick Cooper Please label this as BUG Report TE Oregon, as it is not resolved. The museum does not appear but can do randomly but sitting on top of the white building as shown in numerous pics in above posts.
rinkerbuck Posted November 20, 2019 Posted November 20, 2019 I'm gonna check if I have this. I'm missing the blimp hangar currently.
mauricecohen Posted November 20, 2019 Posted November 20, 2019 For those who have the problem of the white rectangular building embedded in the Orbx Tillamook Museum, the issue is that it is a facade in the default KTMK and that the Orbx exclusions cannot suppress it because Orbx_A_US_Oregon_TE_Custom is installed below Global Airports (as per @Jon Clarke's rearrangement of the ini file). Moving Global Airports below Orbx_A_US_Oregon_TE_Custom might solve the problem (I have not tried it) but might create new ones. I have downloaded and modified the default KTMK by deleting the facade, saving it and placing it with other airports above the Global Airports; it works: For anyone not able to use WED to do the same and would like to use the fix, here it - just unzip and place in Custom Scenery above Global Airports.

rinkerbuck Posted November 20, 2019 Posted November 20, 2019 Okay I'll have to try this ^^, having the same issue.

rinkerbuck Posted November 21, 2019 Posted November 21, 2019 Well I tried the zip, no effect. Moving global airports right below SCENERY_PACK Custom Scenery/Orbx_A_US_Oregon_TE_Custom/ SCENERY_PACK Custom Scenery/Orbx_B_US_Oregon_TE_Overlay/ SCENERY_PACK Custom Scenery/Orbx_C_US_Oregon_TE_Orthos/ Just gives me the flat texture of the Hangar, as well. Also a few other buildings seem to be missing from the airport now too. I tried just moving global airports first, then adding the modified KTMK on top, both just gave me the flat version of the hangar with no building.
Rob Ainscough Posted November 21, 2019 Posted November 21, 2019 Confirmed it's gone also. Cheers, Rob.

My misunderstanding. I was aware that you only removed the white building but your pic indicated it would then leave a space for the Orbx Museum to appear. I also meant for you to zip your installed KTMK file to see if it differed any way from the original zip you offered. Thanks for your efforts in trying to overcome this annoying anomaly. Let's hope the Devs get working on a fix having acknowledged the anomaly.

Is that with the initial attached zip, extracted and put into Custom Scenery above Global Airports? Because i did that and only got the rust coloured ground with an imprint of Museum written on it. What is your scenery_packs layering with this added?
Jon Clarke Posted November 21, 2019 Posted November 21, 2019 The visual accuracy is totally random. If you look at the early posts on this, I attached a pic which showed the museum but it was sat on the default white building. Ever since I then Verified Files i have not got the museum back at all only the white building. The new mod has removed the white building but not in my case, added the Museum as you are showing in your pic. It is an installation error I believe. It may rectify itself by uninstalling and reinstalling but I am not personally inclined towards reinstalling. I am on the SD version. If the mod works for some then I am glad but the problem needs to be fixed for all. To date we have 4 different outcomes. 1. White building only with trees in it. 2. White building with Museum sitting on top. 3. No white building, with the mod, but a ground imprint of the museum, 4. A fix like you have.
Nick Cooper Posted November 21, 2019 Posted November 21, 2019 Mine is the SD version Jon. Maurice's fix at the top of the ini file. It does look a bit like a lottery.
mauricecohen Posted November 21, 2019 Posted November 21, 2019 1 hour ago, Nick Cooper said: Mine is the SD version Jon FYI, mine is the HD. There are two separate issues here: the seemingly random appearance of the Orbx custom museum; and, the embedded (or standalone if the custom object is AWOL) facade from the default airport. I think these kinds of problems will occur if Orbx relies on the XP default airports (meaning Global Airports is higher) but also places custom objects at these airports. If the default airport has an exclusion around its object/facade, the Orbx custom will be missing (this actually could explain why some people do not see the museum: their default KTMK somehow has an exclusion there), and if it does not have an exclusion, it will have an embedded default object/facade. I believe that if Orbx wishes to place a custom object at an airport, it should provide it in a “custom airport” to be placed above the global ones.
mauricecohen Posted November 21, 2019 Posted November 21, 2019 (edited) I believe I found the source of the randomness of the custom museum appearing or not. Take a look at this snipshot of WED with the default KTMK (with the facade removed) there is an exclusion zone (actually several stacked, each for a different category) that covers part of the museum footprint; the insertion point of the Orbx custom object must be right at the edge of the exclusion zone and since there is not an absolutely exact placement by XP of scenery elements when it loads, the exclusion can or not suppress the custom museum. It would not serve any purpose for me to remove or modify the exclusion zone in my fix, as it would still be there in Global Airports which lies between my fix and the custom Orbx. The only sure fix is for the developers to modify the insertion point of the custom museum to be far enough away from the default exclusion zone to eliminate the probability that it would be suppressed by XP's "fuzziness" in placement. The above struck-out text is wrong, I will modify the fix and re-post in a few minutes after removing the exclusion, which should work because it will SUPPRESS the default, including the exclusion.

mauricecohen Posted November 21, 2019 Posted November 21, 2019 Jon and rinkerbuck, please try the following - unzipped and above Global Airports Link removed on the instructions of the developer
mauricecohen Posted November 21, 2019 Posted November 21, 2019 I need to reactivate the forest exclusion because now trees intrude on the custom object. Here it is again with only the object and facade exclusions removed; please try and let me know. Link removed on the instructions of the developer EDIT - Looking back at my screenshot of the museum, the intruding trees were already there, so this is not effective to remove the trees.
