Benny Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 I can fly, main runway (05) elevation is wrong big time?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
androlic Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 after reinstalling the latest library, the FTX-Central window looks normal again but the elevation issue is not resolved! the default nzqn that comes with nzsi looks ok, but when i activate the addon-airport the issue is there. also moving nzqn up in the fsx-library did not help.. I can fly, main runway (05) elevation is wrong big time? ? yes its off by a few meters. the runway is partially flowing in the air and the apron is surrounded by a green wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 yes its off by a few meters. the runway is partially flowing in the air and the apron is surrounded by a green wall Me it feel higher by 100 feet or more??? Look at my crash picture. Men I messed up my post, sorry, here is the crash picture again at about 100feet more above runway. Can't cross runway anywhere.

androlic Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 found it!!! somehow the ADE_FTX_NZSI_NZCH_elevation_adjustment in the scenery/world/scenery folder did not switch from off to .bgl at first - now it works and looks as it shoud feel free to mark this as "resolved" cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Henare Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Hey there, try rerunning the NZQN installer again. Also ensure you have any other scenery that might interfere is disabled. Thanks for the update Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
androlic Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 hi martin, looks like we posted at the same time - all is good now!! thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Same goes for me, just a reboot fixed the elevation problem??? But a few building on the right side coming on 05 remain black at all time. Not a big thing but just saying. I have plenty of vid and image if you need them. Thanks, other then the real elevation problem I'm spending the next week on this airport. Did I say it was superb!!!! And what about that crazy surrounding.. Thanks, Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Henare Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Thanks Ben, Regarding crash detection, while I cleaned up all my files to turn crash detection off, it's never a perfect science thus we recommend turning it off. I will check again, as I was able to do fly all around the airport with crash detection on when I was testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benny Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 Oupsss, that elevation problem just came back, at about 150-200 feet. It's like the runway was a bigg wall. I started back FSX a few time but it didn't work. Reboot same problem. May I ask where is that crash detection feature? Also, when the runway is ok this is where the program load, on 05 but if the altitude problem is there I start on the small runway. Maybe I should re-install, if so, I have never un installed your product, should I un install first? Thanks, Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolter van der Spoel Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 make sure you got no Antartica scenery installed or at least active as that also seems to influence the NZ install, as for the elevation issue make sure that you have only one ADE_FTX_NZSI_NZQN_elevation_adjustment file with a .bgl extension when switched to Oceania in your Scenery/World/Scenery folder, if there's one with a .off extension rename it to .bgl, if there are 2 one with .bgl and one with .off then delete the ones with the .off extension Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benny Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 No Wolter and THANKS for your help! Here is what I did, deleted the ORBX Scenery folder and the BGL file in the world folder, installed everything back by the book... Same stuff. Change from Oceania to FSX a few time. By magic I ended up on 05 without crashing. SAVE THE FLIGHT!!!!!!!!!!! I can load that flight and it will not crash the plane (elevation ok) BUT, if I change time, let say daylight to night, when FSX as loaded it crash (elevation change). I don't have Antarctica (?). I spend much of the night flying around but I had to load that perticular saved flight. No way I can just load a new flight in NZQN. Elevation problem. Note form you guys: Black building everywhere, house in the air near the river, duplicate plane on tarmac (one over the other), my elevation problem. I thank you sir for being what you are. A patient men. It's the first time ever I'm having issue with an ORBX product. Get a good night of sleep an MANY THANKS for trying to help... I guess that next I should be a beta tester.... ha ha ha.

Wolter van der Spoel Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Hi there me again Did you make sure to have set FTX Central to Oceania before the re-install ? Did you run the latest library files after you re-installed NZQN ? and yes we are gonna nag you till you get it right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Ha ha ha, I kind of like you, all you post make me feel good. Thanks again. Sure it was set to Oceania but no I don't have the latest lib, I'll get it today. I didn't know that lib would have such an effect, interesting. Sure I'm mad, I can land on one of the most beautiful ORBX scenery, ha ha ha. The funny thing Is I don't even care so much. How was your night, did you sleep well? ha ha ha. Best regards.

Wolter van der Spoel Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 me again................... I know I'm the proverbial PITA, but, could you try and disable your Addon Scenery folder for me? just to see if that changes anything .........

Benny Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 """disable your Addon Scenery"""" Ok, I'm a noob now, ouff, I 'm not sure what you mean OR/AND I had to many beers yesterday I'll go on the sim after my coffe.... it's morning here... oupsss, it's not, it's noon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolter van der Spoel Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 OK, let me rephrase the remark, when you got to your scenery CP within fsX scroll down and you should find Addon Scenery, please un-tick the checkbox and hit OK, you'll see that the scenery Dbase will rebuild, then select NZQN for next trail run to see if the issue has gone or is still there ............sorry for sometimes confusing you as HM English in not my native language Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 No Worry, I'm French native. What I did was wrong I guess, I went into the libraries (inside FSX main menu) and simply un check NZQN, here is what I got: (for your eyes only... he he) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 OK, let me rephrase the remark, when you got to your scenery CP within fsX scroll down and you should find Addon Scenery, please un-tick the checkbox and hot OK, you'll see that the scenery Dbase will rebuild, then select NZQN for next trail run to see if the issue has gone or is still there ............ sorry for sometimes confusing you as HM English in not my native language Ok, I got it now, same thing, it try to load on 05 and plane crash immediately.... I can load on other spot like the small runway or parking space and it work. Thanks for trying to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benny Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Just did that, maybe it will help??? It's about 200 feet above. That is what the altimeter is showing. http://youtu.be/X8A5HOiReco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolter van der Spoel Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 OK, got it, please disable crash detection as it's a bad and not correct working fsX gadget, I know there's an issue with crashes on the RWY edge and I know that Martin is working on a fix for that, so for the moment please disable crash detection and you should be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolter van der Spoel Posted September 14, 2013 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I'll humor you on this one when you fire up fsX, go to settings, settings realism, and tick the Ignore crashes and damages box, hit OK and that should do it or you open your fsX.cfg and look for the part [REALISM] CrashDetection=True and change True to False Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since your here.... ha ha ha again may I just ask if it's normal to have no light on runway? Ben As far as I know there are no night operations at NZQN, hence no need for lights on the RWY, that's what they told me, but I could be misinformed............

Martin Henare Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Runway lights are on until 10pm and turn on again when the airport opens at 0500. it's not recommended to fly in Queenstown at night The airport shuts at 10 and flights can't depart after 30 min before sunset. The user manual refers to the Aeronautical charts which provide the restrictions of flying in Queesntown. Regarding the crashes at 200 ft, I am still not sure why your experiencing a crash as all the scenery has their crash detection turned off.

Adam Banks Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Did you make sure to have set FTX Central to Oceania before the re-install ?I hate to be an old woman (LOL) ... but ... nowhere in the readme or the manual does it tell you to do that. It may be shown in one of the install screen instructions, but it's easy to skip those without reading too closely. Also - the readme refers to a PAJN file!!!! Adam.

Benny Posted September 15, 2013 Share Posted September 15, 2013 Thanks to all, I truly appreciate the support of ORBX product. Thanks Martin for making that GEM. It may not be open at night but men it look beautiful , seeing the house lighting all over the place is simply stunning. Same goes for airport light. I'm sorry to be in love with your art work To Martin: I have a few constructive remark: The black building daytime are ok at night compare to the other one. They show more light and detail then the normal house? On the far river some house where in the air but not at all time. Strangely, when I hit the V key and look after they where ok When ready to take off, the runway (main) look fuzzy at a far distance, let say after half of this one.
