resolved LOWI suddenly runway not useable

[Heinz Zimmerbauer]

Suddenly, runway of LOWI becomes unusable because there is a "deep hole" at the east side of the runway (see Video attached)...this problem started suddenly without other changes - after first installation a couple if weeks ago, all was fine.

There is no difference if installed LOWI in Flightsimulator directory or Orbx library...If I uninstall Orbx LOWI, all problems are fixed....

Hello,

I am seeing this too.

Let's ask @Jarrad Marshall

Hello,

In my case the take-off from LOWI RW08 was without any problem.

Best regards

Hi guys, 

 

I've just run the same test at my end with an up-to-date version of the sim - I'm very sorry to say that I can't replicate the issue. 

 

Are you able to post your display graphics settings in order that I can replicate them at my end? 

 

Cheers,

Jarrad

Hello Jarrad,

I think they should all be in this file.

I've flown from Venice to Innsbruck, wending my way through the mountains. I'm relieved to say the Innsbruck runway played no dirty tricks on me.

Just a hunch, is anybody of you in the Navigraph NavData Beta?

Great question. The runway was normal when I flew it recently with the latest MFS and LOWI patch, but I haven't flown it since installing the Navigraph beta. I know the beta can affect airports becuase as advertised, it adds the runway and lights (but no buildings of course) to EDDDS and that's the extent of the checking I did after installation. I'll try it tonight at LOWI and see it that's the key.

 Doesn't seem to be the Navigraph beta. I just flew in and out of LOWI on both runways and did not see the dip shown in the OP's video. LOWI 1.0.0, MFS 1.7.14.0, Navigraph cycle 2010 beta 3.

[Heinz Zimmerbauer]

Bingo!!!!! After a NAVIGRAPH update to AIRAC 2010 Rev. 5, the runway of LOWI is OK again  Seems NAVIGRAPH caused this problem...

Hello,

I have fixed mine.

I went here:

 

where one can safely delete the SceneryIndexes folder and Content.xml.

A restart of MSFS with no  other addon products apart from Orbx and Gaya and the runway was

once again as it should be.

I took off on runway 26 yesterday both with and without the Orbx ad-on.  In both situations, there was a sharp rise in the last 1/4 of the runway (in the runway 8 landing zone) that caused my A320 to be launched into the air prematurely with insufficient speed to take off. Definitely a problem.  In one of the cases, it caused a crash message, saying I damaged my landing gear. No kidding. I could see it coming at me on my takeoff roll.

The runway is also unusable for me. I have already uninstalled and reinstalled the Scenery but the problem persists. Orbx doesn't seem to care ...

Hello,

you have chosen an old topic to add to.

Since it was first posted, almost a year has gone by.

This problem arose following the first simulator update.

Since then there have been dozens of topics asking the same question and all of them answered:

Please uninstall the Asobo version of LOWI, using the Content Manager.

Here are three pages of similar topics.

[Guido Kurth]

Hello and thanks for the quick reply.
Your tip helped. I had uninstalled LOWI before, but the airport was obviously reactivated during an update. Thanks!

Regards Guido
