Bloodhound Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 I purchased and installed LOWI through Orbx Central, airport was installed in the MSFS folder. I can see all the buildings correctly but the ground textures are the default ones. As you can see in the images below, the grass color is the default one, the markings on the grass runway are missing and the river has the default light blue color. Please let me know what can i do to have the correct textures showing up in MSFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Hello, have you perhaps disabled the Bing data in the simulator? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodhound Posted September 8, 2020 Author Share Posted September 8, 2020 No, i have the Bing data enabled. According to this article on FSElite, it should look like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max303 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Hello Nick! I have the same problem, no custom ground/grass textures as in the screenshots above. Installed via Orbx Central. Did a fresh reinstall, didn´t fixed it. Bing Data is activated Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Hello, can you have a look at your installation and see if you have one or two versions installed please? Can you have a look and tell me the folder name please? I do wonder if you are at the correct bridge this one seems to be there but at the moment, I am seeing the same ground textures as you are. but I have two versions installed, possibly during testing. The other one looks like the product screen shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Hello, I have removed the product and reinstalled it, now it looks like the product screen shots. Could you try that please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfko Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Being a local, I can tell you, that the river is constantly (nearly on a daily basis) changing colours IRL, from brown to green to light blue, fom cristal clear to muddy. From the above shots the following three are showing correct colours (the colours in the other two shots are completely impossible IRL). Also, there are no markings on the glider strip IRL (see video attached). The colour of the grass depends of course on the season. The colour in the Bing image used by MSFS is a bit out of reality. If Orbx would correct the colour for LOWI then the airport would not match with the surrounding scenery, which colour is off too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
max303 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Hello Nick! The solution for me was, to install LOWI into a new library. After that, the original Orbx ground textures are back. Regards Max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bridge in my picture is at the end of the runway, when taking off from rwy 26. I will try to do as Max suggested and install LOWI in a separate library.

Cygnific Posted September 10, 2020 Share Posted September 10, 2020 I'm missing those ground textures also, tried redownloading but that didn't help. Same foldername as Bloodhound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodhound Posted September 10, 2020 Author Share Posted September 10, 2020 I created a new library and installed LOWI there, but there was no change in the ground textures for me, having the same issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Hello, to keep you up to date, I have isolated the problem, I think and we are running some tests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bernd1151 Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Hi Nick, just out of curiosity, I have two LOWIs in my folders, one in the MSFS/Official/OneStore folder and the Orbx one in the Community folder. Shall I remove the original MSFS version? Bernd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 Hello, no, there is no need. The Orbx one excludes the Asobo one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnific Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Does it have to do with Asobo not allowing (atm) multiple Aerial Photography loaded in a area? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 Hello, it does. In this case, Gaya LOWW will stop the Orbx ground textures. To be quite clear, this is not a problem with either the Orbx product or the Gaya product. It is a problem with the simulator that has been further researched since this topic was last answered. There should be a solution before much longer, hopefully it will be released in the next update to MSFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnific Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Thanks for the answer Nick, we'll see tommorow (hopefully). Gladly it's not a big problem though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
