bhorv67 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 This issue seems to only affect FL. I own all the TE areas + all global. P3d 5.3 These pictures were taken off the coast of FLL, heading SE. Looking to the E, you can notice a ridge of what looks like a mountain range, and grass where the ocean should be. Off in the distance is an edge of land/water. As I fly closer, more land is filled in. This same issue happens on the east coast of FL. To troubleshoot I've done the following: Verified TE FL, and all global in OC Deleted the Terrain.cfg, p3d created new, sync simulator in OC Can verify that 'Default Scenery' is above Default Terrain at the bottom of the scenery library. All my scenery is in Simroot - I don't use xml/external libraries. Mesh is set to 2m Tested with Vector on and off. Not sure what else to try.

Doug Sawatzky Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Hi I see you have the majority of your default numbered scenery items unchecked\deactivated in your scenery library. These are mandatory and will need to be checked\activated in order for your scenery to display properly. You will also need to check\activate all the default named scenery items as well.

I do have the bulk of the default base layers unchecked as these are areas that I do not fly in and don't need those areas loaded. But I will reactivate these and test again. There are 2 default named areas, both have been active. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Hi All of the default base layers are mandatory for the simulator do display scenery. below is the list. There are actually 32 default named layers, that yes, could be unchecked\deactivated for various reasons, but could also cause anomalies. The below images are from your above posted scenery.cfg. 32 Default Named Layers Mandatory Numbered Base Layers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhorv67 Posted December 22, 2021 Author Share Posted December 22, 2021 After first activating ALL the default layers and testing again, the same issue still appears. I'll try next to once again delete the terrain.cfg, create new, sync sim, test again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Thanks Also, screenshots from outside the aircraft allow us to see the issue much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhorv67 Posted December 23, 2021 Author Share Posted December 23, 2021 I believe this is resolved. Terrain.cfg had to be recreated, and sync in OC (a second time). All appears normal on the Fl coast. Appreciate the help 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prisco Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 Hi Doug, I read through this topic, because i have similar issue after updating P3D. I had landtextures at MPTO, but i solved the issue by sync the Simulator a second time. Now i had a look to my sceneryfolder and most folder are not activeted. I use the SIMstarter tool for organizing my Addons. You wrote to BHORV67, that mosor all scenery entrie have to be activated, avoing issues. Can you please have a look at my screens? Thanks Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
