Lawman Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Murray Island seems to be on a big plateau. Is this correct? Somehow it seems "wrong" . I've tried playing with the mesh resolution, but to no avail. Installation went without a hitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolter van der Spoel Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 not sure what's going on at your end, but here it looks as the attached screenie. any foreign other addon mesh installed ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajc Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 Hey Lawman! I'm expierincing it to. I don't have it Aus SP3 yet, but I do have holgermesh, so I think it is because of Aus SP3/4. I'm not sure if you have it, but I think that's the problem. Otherwise I can't help you. Sorry. AJC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawman Posted March 8, 2011 Author Share Posted March 8, 2011 No, no other mesh is installed, not even the HolgerMesh. I have FTX AU patched with SP4. Never had any problems with Orbx-sceneries before. I did install YMUI with FTX AU active in FTX Central. After I installed YMUI I did install the latest Orbx-libraries.

Tim Harris Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 *Please note this strip was designed to fit over the top of AU_GREEN (or the AU DVD) and AU Holgermesh(SP3)* You need AU Holgermesh(SP3) http://fullterrain.com/freeware.html Without it Murray Island is flat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markwlee Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Mine looks like Lawman's. Wolter - yours looks pretty flat. The real-life pics are very hilly. I DO get grey rectangles moving in the surf-zone but they may be due to that more-realistic (usually) waves mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Harris Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Mark, check you have the SP3 version of Holgermesh You should have 9 files in FSX\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_HOLGERMESH\Scenery If you dont, then you must have the old version of Holgermesh Cheers Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Harris Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Grey rectangles in the surf, you must have something amiss there as its the same surf effect used around the coast of Australia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markwlee Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I had 8 Holgermesh files in Addon Scenery and 1 in ORBX. I have a wave mod that seems to work OK everywhere else. I'll see if I have a difference with the look now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Johnston Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 I had the same issue during testing. Just re-download Holgermesh and it will be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Harris Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Nice old pics btw Mark, found some good ones here http://www.flickr.com/photos/seekee/4522754092/in/photostream/ showing it just last year, its almost as green as a golf course now and very tidy One pilot even described it as 'all pretty and that' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lawman Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 Tim (and others), thank you very much for your help . Installing the HolgerMesh seems to have fixed the issue. I never did install it before because I was told it had the same resolution as the default mesh for Oz and I never saw any anomalies in FTX AU without it. So, being an optional download, I (wrongly) assumed it wouldn't matter. Guess you're never too old to learn . @Markwlee: do those rectangles disappear when you deactivate ground shadows? I have one such rectangle around YMUI and several around Dillingham by another publisher if I leave ground shadows enabled. The dev of Dillingham told me it had to do with the default dolphins and it was something Microsoft/Aces broke in Acceleration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markwlee Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Hi Lawman - the grey rectangles are translucent and move in the wavezone so they're probably due to a 3rd party wave mod I have. I love the mechanic and waiting passenger, Tim. Also, you've managed to make the forest very realistic and your runway textures are superb. Wolter - I'll download the latest Holgermesh and see if there's any difference. I've amalgamated the 9 files I have because one was previously not in an active folder. Looking at the real islands - perhaps a custom mesh is necessary to get the full ruggedness in the sim. Bungo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Harris Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Thanks Mark Custom mesh would be terrific, as it stands I think what we have is the best we got...the STRM 76m, I had to mess around with flattens to get the C shaped island to stop being flat lol All credit for the animated people goes to Russ White, they are fantastic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheAviator Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I've been following this thread, I didn't see any problems with YMUI but now I've installed the Holgermesh everything looks even better than before! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fs4 Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Where is YMUI available? I can't find it on the Freeware page of the OrbX site? I must be missing something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
