mfannee Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 Hi Espresso, I had this problem too when I mixed FTX Central 3 en ORBX Central for the reasons discussed hereabove. I solved the black textures problem too by re-installing with FTX Central only. That should do the trick till the ORBX Central hotfix is released :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espresso Posted December 2, 2019 Author Share Posted December 2, 2019 I am reverting to FTX Central 3 completely as we write here. Let's hope that hotfix gets rid of this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoseCFII Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 My P3D v4.5 HF2 is also plagued by these occasional night textures that appear in different locations, but are predictable. It can be attributed to Open OLC but sometimes payware aiports cause these night textures to appear during the day. I'd appreciate a fix before the new sim is released. Thanks!

Johan Pienaar Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I never had the night texture problem until I installed EGLC and Honolulu (the first time I used Central), got Honolulu fixed trying all the suggestions like verify files but other regions like Germany end England are still a problem.

espresso Posted December 2, 2019 Author Share Posted December 2, 2019 It seems to me that the more people start using ORBX Central more frequently and in larger extent the more these problems surface. I read several threads in several forums that describe similar problems and issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoastCanadian Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I updated to ORBX central and in New York City I got missing autogen in and around the city. I’ve tried everything to solve this it’s a real pain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do a complete fresh install of P3D and install everything ORBX related with FTX Central 3 2. Wait for the ORBX Central patch or hotfix they are working on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t we just uninstall ORBX Central and then reinstall FTX Central 3? My ORBX folders are still in the root folder so I didn’t change anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoastCanadian Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Well I just figured out something it seems that the autogen issue for me is only in the ORBX base areas. The regions all have autogen with no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Total and complete mess... Yeah all my regions are fine I just got no Global it’s beyond weird. I’ve followed every step to try and get Global installed. The sim is showing that it’s installed but I got no autogen. A mess is right, hope a fix comes out for this soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This does not promise an immediate solution but the problem is acknowledged. I would like to thank you both for the trouble you have gone to in this topic and in particular espresso for testing the theory and finding that it is valid. . Hello, any updates from the developers on fixing this issue? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Hello, no, not yet. Developers often do not share with the support staff how far they are down a development process and asking repeatedly has so far, in my experience, never elicited a useful response. I fear that we will need to wait for them, I am sure that we will be informed as soon as possible when the answer is found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastCoastCanadian Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 In all honesty I will go back to ORBX Central it’s just that it don’t seem like all the scenery is getting activated when you launch it. When I load FTX Central it says ORBX scenery activated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Hello, I posted this into another topic on the same subject. Quote Update. Hello, it seems that there is a problem with P3D v4 and autogen which has appeared since the release of version 4.4. If you are interested in the technical details, someone has studied it and come up with this post that makes interesting reading. https://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/threads/add-on-autogen-bug-in-p3d-4-4-and-4-5-workaround.446495/ Our developers are fully aware of this now and the problem with autogen is being actively investigated and a solution sought. While the problem can be reproduced, it is not apparently consistent. The other problem with landclass which is giving customers night textures during the day is also under investigation.

espresso Posted January 19, 2020 Author Share Posted January 19, 2020 Is there any update on this? The workaround with FTX Central is getting more and more inconvenient since the new products all rely on ORBX Central. In the meantime I have moved my P3D Installation to a completely new system since I sold the PC I had the problems on. This installation was done with ORBX Central right from the beginning and everything worked fine so far. I really hope a solution to this is will be found and provided to the users asap.

keenrw Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 I'm not sure if it's the same issue but i updated to the latest Orbx Central and just clicked on Verify files for Libraries, Base etc and now the missing autogen is back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
