txrace Posted December 14, 2021 Share Posted December 14, 2021 I'm here in Africa on the approach to HSAK Akobo. Many airports look like this not only here, but also in America. Either in a trench or on an elevation. Just don't plan on the area. It only affects small airports and is not an add-on. My basics are Orbx products. So global, Vector (repaired an add-on airport to the correct height in v5.2, so it also has an effect in v5.), All openLC and some regions, which it does not affect here. Now, after the above mentioned approach, I have checked all files that concern this scenery again, set the mesh setting from 1 to 5, no change when restarting. Where is the mistake? In the appendix the scenery - cfg Thank you Peter Fischer https://magentacloud.de/s/PBwJ72pmDKDB4Sg scenery.cfg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted December 15, 2021 Share Posted December 15, 2021 Hi Peter Your attached scenery.cfg file is in extreme disarray and also has no Orbx products in it. Your Orbx products seem to all be installed outside the simulator, and they also do not have any affect on your elevation issues. Even Vector for P3Dv5 does not address airport elevation correction as did the v4 version. So if you are using the AEC tool in Vector, you have the wrong version installed. One of your main problems that I see with your scenery.cfg is that when you rewrote the paths to all the default Base entries, you forgot to add the two most important entries at the bottom of the list, they are the "Default Scenery" and the "Default Terrain" as shown in the below image. I also see that the default numbered Base entries are listed upside down/backwards. Number 1107 should be at the top and 0000 at the bottom. Also I see you have many non default scenery items mixed amongst the default Named items, which should not be done. This will be a start to fixing your issues, so after you have rectified as much of the above as you can, Please post a copy of your “scenery.cfg” file and the “add-ons.cfg” and the “scenery_add-ons.xml” files found at C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5.

txrace Posted December 15, 2021 Author Share Posted December 15, 2021 Hallo Doug, also, ich habe seit gestern V5.3 komplett neu installiert, vorher Orbx total entfernt, getestet und der Flieger hing immer noch über den Abgrund. Dann habe ich Orbx total neu auf eine große interne SSD installiert, das Ergebnis war, das Loch (bzw den Airport darin) konnte ich nur mit einem Düsenjäger verlassen (ein Hubschrauber hätte es auch getan). Alles andere scheiterte an der Steigung. Nach der Landung in HAGM folgende Bilder: https://magentacloud.de/s/t9R9J698GnycYSF https://magentacloud.de/s/Tcs3Gestid4SGQB https://magentacloud.de/s/jfHR9xXP4BcBN2Z der Airport wieder in einem Loch, wohlgemerkt nach der Neuinstallation und nur Orbx ohne weitere Änderungen. Ich habe dann, nach dem lesen Deiner Antwort im Simstarter nachgeschaut, es stimmt, die Devault Dateien fehlen. Wohlgemerkt, nach der Neuinstallation ohne Änderungen in den originalen Scenery - Dateien. Ich werde dann mal die scenery.msi erneut neu installieren und mal sehen, was da heraus kommt. Ich melde mich dann nochmal. Gruß Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

txrace Posted December 16, 2021 Author Share Posted December 16, 2021 Eine Frage kann das hier auch an den fehlenden Devault Dateien liegen: https://magentacloud.de/s/46sW5woYcdaCteQ So sehen bei mir die Ozeane aus.

txrace Posted December 17, 2021 Author Share Posted December 17, 2021 Thanks, but how to correct it? I've reinstalled everything and haven't changed anything since then. The error must already be in the installation file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txrace Posted December 17, 2021 Author Share Posted December 17, 2021 Ich habe jetzt sämtliche Addon - Scenery aus dem Stammverzeichnis von v5.3. entfernt und getrennt gespeichert. Kann diese ja dann per Simstarter leicht wieder einfügen. Außerdem noch mal v5.3 herunter geladen und neu installiert. Die scene.cfg ist jetzt frei von fremd - Addons außer Orbx. Tro Ich habe jetzt die gesamte Addon-Szenerie aus dem Root-Verzeichnis von v5.3. entnommen und getrennt aufbewahrt. Lässt sich diese dann einfach per Simstarter wieder einfügen. Auch wieder v5.3 heruntergeladen und neu installiert. Die Scenery.cfg ist jetzt frei von Add-Ons von Drittanbietern außer Orbx.

Nick Cooper Posted December 17, 2021 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Hello, your scenery.cfg file, is, as Doug has pointed out, corrupted beyond repair. How you have achieved ths is something that only you know. I would strongly recommend that you delete it and all backups and other copies that you may have. I attach a clean P3D v5 scenery.cfg file which should be placed into C:\programdata\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5. I would then recommend that you rename your add-ons.cfg file to add-ons.cfg.off and only then start P3D. You should then see a working default copy and you can start again from there. SimStarter is a powerful tool and its use needs to be both informed and careful. scenery.cfg 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txrace Posted December 17, 2021 Author Share Posted December 17, 2021 Danke Nick, das hat erst einmal funktioniert. Das Wasser ist wieder blau und die Niagara - Fälle sehen wieder Klasse aus. Nur das Problem mit den Airports ist noch vorhanden: HSAK https://magentacloud.de/s/2cdAsCYxM3pLkSP HKEM https://magentacloud.de/s/qmQaGFTXBJDdZg2 Es sind nur wenige Airports, die so aus der Rolle fallen. Ich werde in Zukunft, überall, wo ich auf so ein Problem stoße, den Airport angeben. Vielleicht kann sich ja dann jemand mal mit der Datei beschäftigen. ist für Sie jedenfalls einfacher, als sämtliche Dateien nach Fehlern zu durchforsten.

Only the problem with the airports remains: HSAK https://magentacloud.de/s/2cdAsCYxM3pLkSP HKEM https://magentacloud.de/s/qmQaGFTXBJDdZg2 There are only a few airports that have fallen out of place like that. In the future, I will indicate the airport wherever I encounter such a problem. Maybe someone can then deal with the file. is in any case easier for YOU than to search through all files for errors.

Nick Cooper Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 Hello, I think that HSAK is broken, at least it is in a hole in default P3D. I have fixed that, although there is not much there. Files attached. I can't see anything wrong with HKEM These are in P3D v5 with nothing added at all.

I installed the files after looking for the insert location for a long time. Unfortunately it didn't work. I tested the pure P3D as well as with Orbx. As for HKEM Airport, that was my fault. The airport HAGM was meant. I made a mistake. Can we leave the topic open. so that you can give other users the opportunity to report incorrect altitudes to airports in order to correct them. As I have already written, it mainly affects original small airports, no add-ons and there are only a few distributed around the globe. But if you just fly to one of these and you see a deep pit as a runway, then that's not nice.

Nick Cooper Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Hello, the files do work but you need to add them to P3D v5 correctly. I have added them this time to a scenery folder, along with files for HAGM. Make a folder named Addon Scenery inside your P3D root folder and after unzipping the scenery folder, place the scenery folder into the Addon Scenery folder. Start P3D and add the Addon Scenery folder to your scenery library. HSAK before: and after: HAGM before: HAGM after: scenery.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, I already have the Addon - scenery folder in the root directory, but I had already moved the content to another SSD due to space problems. The 2 airports are now working properly. Now all that remains to be done is to lay the road that runs across the HSAK taxiway. But that's a different chapter and maybe one day it will be solved with True Earth Africa. Nick, I'll fly through the airports that are specified in the simulator one after the other. and so I come across such airports every now and then. I get in touch every now and then, because your data from the corrected airports are not only interesting for me, but would also be of benefit to the entire community. You could then certainly also be helpful to the developers of P3D in order to fix the errors in the program. Thank you very much and I wish you and your loved ones a wonderful Christmas.

txrace Posted December 29, 2021 Author Share Posted December 29, 2021 Hello Nick Thanks for working with Orbx, but it's not the point to disable Orbx every time you go to Iraq or Saudi Arabien The Arabian Peninsula is only covered by Orbx Global, no other add-ons, as far as I know. Or are there any good addons for v5.3 that hide the bug?
