Sammy H Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Good day all. I decided to stop through KSAN this evening and look around. It has been quite some time since flying in this area. I immediately noticed a few things out of sorts. - Had double carriers in port for the Midway Museum -All kinds of double buildings throughout the city -Very bad textures near airport on a couple of buildings Went in and looked through the control panel, I did not see anything out of the norm. After a few test runs I decided to uninstall KSAN and Reinstall it. No change in scenery and all of the above mentioned remained in place. Tried searching the Orbx folder, seems all files related to San Diego are disabled with the following ending "disabled-by-KSAN" I tried switching the control panel back and forth between SCA and Global but the same remained for both selected. For the midway museum I tried using Nick's fix in another post of renaming the POI file to .off and that fixed the ship issue. What was weird about that is, that file also had the same ending as before mentioned "disabled-by-KSAN". Just looking for any assistance to find what is causing the blurred/crappy textures on a couple buildings and the double buildings through the city. I have attached a few photos to reference. The first three photos are in FTX mode. You can see the pretty ugly textures in the first photo, the other two photos were just showing some of the double buildings.

Sammy H Posted March 18, 2020 Author Share Posted March 18, 2020 Here are three more additional photos taken in SCA mode, as you can see does not change much. Main concern is the double buildings. In first photo, again just another view of those bad textures, also a few random trees in buildings which can also be seen in the first photo. Thank you all for any help you can give.

medx421 Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 There was this post from awhile back regarding the double carriers. Not sure if it will fix your texture issue though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy H Posted March 23, 2020 Author Share Posted March 23, 2020 Yes, so the carrier issue is resolved, however the double buildings still remain as does the texture issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You look to have a lot of default scenery poking through. I would have to assume this might be a scenery layering issue, but I am not an expert on this. @Nick Cooper or @Doug Sawatzky may have better insight.

Doug Sawatzky Posted March 24, 2020 Share Posted March 24, 2020 Hi Sammy Could you please try a full uninstall and reinstall of the airport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Doug, I'm experiencing the precise same issues at KSAN as is @Sammy H In my scenery library KSAN is placed in position 5 which indicates it's not a layering issue. Having said that, I really wanted to avoid uninstalling/reinstalling KSAN due to the fact I have GSX and have spent many hours getting KSAN airport to where I need it to be in terms of Jetways, Parking systems etc and ergo, I don't want to risk further complications/issues by removing and reinstalling KSAN and the possible adverse implications that may cause to my GSX work. I've noticed these duplicates extend not only to CBD buildings and aircraft carrier museum, but also the hotels on Harbor Island. Are there any bgl's that can be disabled in order to resolve the issue? That would definitely be my preferred method of resolving this issue. Much appreciated.

Sammy H Posted March 25, 2020 Author Share Posted March 25, 2020 Good day all, @Doug Sawatzky in my original post I did put that I uninstalled and reinstalled the scenery. In fact I actually did it twice with the same result both times. I too do not think it is a layering issue as it was not an issue before. I do not use any other San Diego products, nor have I ever so the only layering issue would have been within Orbx itself. Again, not sure what else to look at outside of the steps I already outlined in my original post. Good thing I do not fly into KSAN that often but when I do I would prefer it looks the way it is supposed to. Hope Matteo can shed some light on the cause.

Matteo Veneziani Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 Hi, the problem of double buildings and objects is due to the fact you have to set the correct compatibility mode inside KSAN control panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope Matteo can shed some light on the cause. @Sammy H Just to let you know (in the event you still haven't been able to resolve this issue), I went into Orbx central again and checked that I had SCA ticked. And as I already knew, it was selected. However, I unticked it and then ticked it again and pressed save. This solved the issue of duplicate buildings. Having said that, I still have the dupliacte Aircraft Carrier museum. I'll deal with that separately. Why on earth Orbx central displayed duplicate buildings despite the fact I already had SCA ticked is beyond the scope of my knowledge and experience. 18 hours ago, XCLTM3 said: Hi, it's set to SCA as I have KSAN & SCA. @Matteo Veneziani I already had SCA ticked in Orbx Central.

Hi, thanks for your good wishes. Anyway, it is weird with the correct option selected in the cp you still have double buildings, this may occur if you have manually modified some files inside SCA folder. To solve the issue, i suggest to go inside sca folder and check if these files are set to .off ADE_FTX_SCA_KSAN.BGL.OFF ADE_FTX_SCA_KSAN_CVX.BGL.OFF FTX_SCA_objects_KSAN_PLC.BGL.OFF FTX_SCA_POI_library_SanDiego_29Palms.BGL.OFF FTX_SCA_POI_objects_SanDiego_CBD.BGL.OFF FTX_SCA_POI_objects_SanDiego_CBD-df.BGL.OFF FTX_SCA_POI_objects_bridge_Coronado.BGL.OFF FTX_SCA_PR_objects_SanDiego.BGL.OFF 2_orthoimage_CA_USGS2012_SanDiego-Center_LOD4-16.BGL.OFF 2_orthoimage_CA_USGS2012_SanDiego-North_LOD4-16.BGL.OFF 2_orthoimage_CA_USGS2012_SanDiego-South_LOD4-16.BGL.OFF if one/all of these are not set to .off manually write .OFF after BGL.

Sammy H Posted March 27, 2020 Author Share Posted March 27, 2020 I am happy to report that all the double building issues have been resolved. A bit weird, all the files named above by Matteo had the extension of "disabled by KSAN" after them which I did not put there, guessing something within the install when SCA and KSAN are both present. Crazy part is, removing that extension and just applying the default .OFF fixed the issue. The only other thing that is still present and I'm honestly not even concerned about it is the pretty ugly texture on the building in both of my post. It is the first picture in both, kind of a ugly texture being used there, not sure what happened with that but it looks horrible. I do not even know if that is related to KSAN or SCA but it looks pretty bad. Thanks again for the help all and glad we found a solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
