Samuel Little Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Just picked up FlyTampa Amsterdam to use with TrueEarth Netherlands. I'm having huge texture, object and elevation issues. I've tried enabling and disabling the various EHAM files in the TrueEarth directory but with no luck. I saw a few other posts with this issue but nothing that helped. Thanks in advance. This is with not changing and files, just vanilla install of the scenery and TrueEarth. Thre are no markings and there are default buildings. If I change files I get elevation and other issues.

I have uninstalled the FlyTampa scenery to start again. I disabled the 3 .bgl files in TrueEarth Netherlands -> Scenery file with EHAM in the name. When I load up in that config I am still seeing default buildings which are the ones that seem to be coming through when I have the scenery installed. Any idea where these originate from?

Nick Cooper Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Hello, P3D v4 versions of addon products have trouble excluding default buildings in P3D v5. Given that I do not have the Fly Tampa product, do you have the latest P3D v5 compatible version? I see this at their forums, where you could also ask your question. https://www.flytampa.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=13842 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I'm aware this version is intended for use in v5. I have just reinstalled the scenery in the default location and I have not touched it in any way. Interestingly, the scenery library tab in P3D shows the airport below my Orbx product, however it is greyed out and I am unable to move it. Any ideas?

Nick Cooper Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Hello, you can use Orbx Central to set the insertion point of your Orbx products to below your other addons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Now have a new issue of P3D crashing at about 75% when loading at Amsterdam even without the scenery installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Hello, please review how you set the insertion point. You will see how to do that written above the drop down menus on the Insertion Point page. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Hello, yes, that's fine. They aren't scenery areas, they are just references to Orbx files that need to be used instead of the default ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The airport is below a bunch of Orbx stuff despite settings the top option in Central to my last addon. I still cant get past 75% when loading Amsterdam.

Nick Cooper Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Try disabling all your addons in the addons list and see if it starts then. If you are familiar with Notepad, you can do this very quickly by opening the add-ons.cfg file and using "Replace all", change Active=True to Active=False Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have the issue of no runway markings, I believe because of the order in the scenety library. For some reason it wont move up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Hello, I think that you need to ask at the Fly Tampa forums, because I don't have the product, I am unable to advise you further. I don't know why Amsterdam should be there, when all your other addons are together and above the Orbx entries. I don't use it but the Lorby Prepar3D Addon Organizer can be used to manipulate this kind of scenery library entry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I moved Amsterdam to the same order in the scenery library that I knew worked and it loaded up no problem (after I turned the 3 .bgl files to .OFF in TrueEarth. Thank you for you excellent help on a Saturday morning. Kind regards, Sam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
