Jon Clarke Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 @Tony Wroblewski Hi Tony. I can confirm there are floating houses around KSMO. My pic is in a different position than the pic from @clecorouge and is without any 3rd party addon for KSMO airport. @clecorouge welcome to the forums @Nick Cooper Please move this to the Bugs section. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Wroblewski Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Thanks... The issue is the airport is likely flattened altering the mesh around it. The buildings are made to fit exactly to a specific mesh (The TE one without flattening), so the effect of flattening an airport alters the mesh and causes the floating building.

So if I find that the default airport has the "flattening" attribute enabled, if i remove that then the houses would not be floating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Clarke Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I have checked the default KSMO and do not see any 1302 flatten 1 entry in the apt.dat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badl4ndz Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 If you want to see floating buildings, might I suggest you fly north over I-405 in the Sepulveda Pass section heading towards the San Fernando Valley. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clecorouge Posted July 26, 2020 Author Share Posted July 26, 2020 @Jon Clarke Hi, I have been investigating and seems floating houses at KSMO are due to a conflict with MisterX KLAX HD airport. See here, patch suggestion from MisterX : https://store.x-plane.org/KLAX--Los-Angeles-International-HD_p_836.html#tab-9 Thank you @Jon Clarke and guys here for investigating.

Cheers, C The floating houses also appear without the payware MisterX KLAX unfortunately. However, thanks to our colleague @Sentry11 there is a fix he has made. I will make it available in the Pinned Topics Useful Tip section at the top of this XP Support forum. Again many thanks to Sentry11 who has provided several fixes now.

clecorouge Posted July 26, 2020 Author Share Posted July 26, 2020 @Jon Clarke I have tested the MOD and while houses are not floating anymore it seems there are some new issues: textures are missing. Thks, Cheers, C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentry11 Posted July 26, 2020 Share Posted July 26, 2020 @clecorouge Apparently your street roads are absent, and as I don't have Mister X's KLAX installed you just might have have a layering problem, or a conflict with Mister X's KLAX scenery.

clecorouge Posted July 26, 2020 Author Share Posted July 26, 2020 @Sentry11 I had removed MisterX KLAX but have the transparent road option checked in the Orbx config though. I will check with the option checked out. Thank you for your kind support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for your kind support. @Sentry11 @Jon Clarke re the MOD, so I did uncheck the road transparency option within the Orbx soft and white textures did disappear though there are still some artefacts, see attached screen caps (will do until next full update I guess ;-)). Again thank you very much for your kind support. Cheers, C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
