Ron Attwood Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 I rather suspect a reinstall of PNW is on the cards but maybe there's a quick way of sorting this: Chehalis-Centralia KCLS. I don't know if this happens anywhere else. Or maybe it was the Library, although I did reinstall the latest one. Cheers, Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad Maly Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Don't know, Ron. Looks like DX10 problem to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jocko Flocko Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Yup, same issue I'm having as well. It's taking place at PAVD in Southern Alaska as well. Ron, did this take place after you installed the PNW update or after you installed the OrbX libraries update? For me I can't remember when this began happening.

Alex Goff Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Definitely a library issue with some of the grass models in DX10 mode. It comes from the libraries, I actually modified the grasses and added them into the libraries. The alteration made was to remove crashboxes but now it appears that has some sort of effect in DX10 mode... Time to go play DX10 whack-a-mole and figure out what broke...

Alex Goff Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 In the meantime, for anybody out there using DX10 mode and would like to have the old grass back, here are the files. Drop them in C:\...\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_ORBXLIBS\Scenery Orbxlivs_vegetation_x_orig.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Goff Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Ok, the problem has been tracked down. If any daring soul would like to try the newly patched files here they are: Orbxlibs_vegetation_x_nocrash.zip This should make sure they display correctly in DX10 mode while still remaining crash-free. My apologies for letting this one slip through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, am I right I have to run the updates in the sequence PNW 006 patch Library finally your DX10 fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Orbxlibs vegetation_x_orig.zip, see Mail 6 above, works fine. The volumetric grass is back again. Wulf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Attwood Posted December 23, 2013 Author Share Posted December 23, 2013 Orbxlibs_vegetation_x_nocrash.zip "I don't have permission to view this attachment" I'm happy enough to get the grass back.

Alex Goff Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Whoops, looks like some attachments are permissions based. Orbxlibs_vegetation_x_nocrash.zip And yes, use these files after the latest library has installed. When the next library update is released there will be no need for these anymore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonman Posted January 17, 2014 Share Posted January 17, 2014 That's great Alex! Thank You very much for the files! I was wondering too when i encounterd this issue lately at some airports! Currently undertaking a complete FSX install and so looking around here at the support forums often as i - although all is pretty much routine by now - still often oversee something when undertaking a new install. An this is one of these things - completely missed it at first as the topic was started around last Christmas holidays. The happier i am now to know what's wrong - and even better to know how to get it fixed - and super great to know that it will be adressed with the next official library update! Really great!

kdfw Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 reviving an old one here, but had the same 3d grass issue in dx10 for a long time, even when all orbxlibs were updated (as of today). only when i added the above 2 veg bgls did it fix the problem. so i guess this fix hasn't been disseminated to the pnw orbxlibs.

wulfbindewald Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 A crosscheck on PNW Chehalis-Centralia KCLS does not show any vegetation/grass issues in DX10. Did You install the - latest PNW Patch 5 and Patch 8 as a DVD user or reloaded from FSS the already full patched PNW version - Latest ORBXLIBS 140927 regarded? When You are saying "dx10": Do You use the FSX DX10 preview mode only, the freeware DX10 fixer in Avsim or the payware DX10 scenery fixer av. in FSS?

kdfw Posted November 28, 2014 Share Posted November 28, 2014 dx10 preview with freeware fixer. observed this at 1s2, places along the way to and including kbli even with the latest patches installed. only by manually placing the 2 files in Microsoft Flight Simulator X\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_ORBXLIBS\Scenery did the problem go away.
