clorgaa Posted June 10, 2020 Share Posted June 10, 2020 Flying along Colombia River to land at Wenatchee heading roughly 120 came across this glitch alongside the airport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Clarke Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Can you give a better pic of where I need to look? I have been along the river from both sides of KEAT and do not see any major elevation issues like in your pic. Is it right alongside the KEAT airport?

clorgaa Posted June 11, 2020 Author Share Posted June 11, 2020 OK here are 2 more pictures of the elevation issues and as you can see heading downwind R30 the problem lies near the riverbank. You can see the airport in the background. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentry11 Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I think it may have been fixed in both the HD & SD updates. (See Next) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clorgaa Posted June 11, 2020 Author Share Posted June 11, 2020 Thanks I will download. Normally get notifications for updates will check my settings as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clorgaa Posted June 12, 2020 Author Share Posted June 12, 2020 I have installed Washington TE HD 1.2 but the issue stills seems to be there (see attached image). Also included log.txt for info. Can anyone else still see this or is it just me? Log.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentry11 Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 @clorgaa For what its worth I have also applied the update and it has corrected the mesh problem for me. Did you verify files after downloading from Orbx Central? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clorgaa Posted June 13, 2020 Author Share Posted June 13, 2020 Thanks for your reply. Yes I did the verify and Central shows 1.2 installed so I will try reinstalling as it is obviously something with my installation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentry11 Posted June 13, 2020 Share Posted June 13, 2020 I see your having problems with central too. Your lucky that you don't have down-clock every time just to get Central to open to install a major update. Even then after verifying files its a hit and miss that the conversion takes place correctly and the installation completes without a hitch. Yes, IMHO there is a lot to be desired in that application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clorgaa Posted June 15, 2020 Author Share Posted June 15, 2020 Well problem still here despite complete reinstall (see attached). Can't see anything in log.txt and have attached scenery.ini to see if anyone can spot anything. Also ran verify before this image. Still there are plenty more places to fly in the Orbx world. scenery_packs.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see anything untoward in the scenery_packs file either to indicate why you might not be seeing the fixed version. Anyway i have downloaded from the XP Gateway a version made in April2020 and introduced the required "flatten". Try it and see if it works. Just unzip it into your Custom Scenery folder Lets us know what happens. KEAT_Scenery_Pack.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clorgaa Posted June 16, 2020 Author Share Posted June 16, 2020 Thanks Jon extracted the files and they appear in scenery.ini but the elevation issue is still there. Never mind I am not going to become like a dog with a bone over it as it seems to be my setup somewhere and if I feel bored I can always spend some time on it. For now I would rather just fly. scenery_packs.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make a new Custom Scenery folder. Open the .BAK version an make shortcuts for the 4 TE Washington files, including the TE Washington Airports file, plus Global Airports. Run XP and exit and check that TE Washington Airports is above Global Airports and the 3 main TE Washington files are just below Global Airports. Then take a flight in the area where you are seeing the elevation issues and see if they are rectified. The whole process will take 10 minutes and will allow you to see if there is a conflict with another addon or there is something wrong with your TE Washington including the update.

Vostflyer Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 Runways follow contours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is a possibility I had not thought of as I am unsure as to what extent the airport coverage is vs the TE Washington coverage is regarding mesh. I don't see the elevation issue and i have the Runway follows terrain contours option enabled. @clorgaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clorgaa Posted June 17, 2020 Author Share Posted June 17, 2020 Great call Vostflyer sorted out the issue. I had not thought of it as I normally leave it on but disabled it when trying to land at EG42 Foula and ran straight off the runway side. When I got back on the gravel it seemed to have a 10 degree sideways slope and I just couldn't land and stay straight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
