fltboy Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Hi, When I first installed FTX Juneau v1, it worked properly. Recently, after updating it to v1.1, I noticed that it did not work properly, with runway texture and elevation problems shown below: Other installed FTX products in my FSX are: Global 1.2 Vector 1.15 SAK 1.003 PNW SP8 Please advise how to solve the problem.

Red2112 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Hi Holger, I seem to have the same issue, just in my case it follows the taxi lines. I also sink while on runway. FTX Global, FTX Vector and PAJN are all up to date and with use of FS Global 2010. I did run the auto configurator on FTXV 1.15 but still same problem, please see pic´s below... It seems to happen on both end of runways. On active runway, it starts you up on the water. UTX was also uninstalled recently, but I did/do get a report from FTX Central which say´s... Custom Files Validation Report FSX file does not exist. D:\FSX\Scenery\Global\Texture\BridgeRoads.dds Any help is welcome! Holger, if you prefer me to open up a new thread, then no problem just say so, thanks! Best, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Hi Mike, please have another look at the thread I referenced above; it links to a post of mine with specific instructions regarding searches for third-party conflicts. As for the bridgeroads.dss message that's a known issue with the Ultimate Terrain X uninstaller removing that particular default file. You can find a copy of the original in this post: http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/67267-pop-up-message-missing-file-for-iceland-demo-install/?p=617416 Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red2112 Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Hi Holger, Thank you for your help! The missing BridgesRoads.dds find was great, thanks for that one, but the other links that refer to the three products mentioned are not on my HD, so I don´t use them. As per your guidence I took two screen shots of what PAJN.BGL files are on my FSX drive, please see below... Hope that helps and thanks again Holger!

Holger Sandmann Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Hi Mike, thanks for the screenshots. Looks like you're missing the crucial ADE_FTX_SAK_PAJN_elevation_adjustment.BGL in \Scenery\World\scenery. For SAK alone there should be 29 "ADE_FTX_SAK_{ICAO}_elevation_adjustment.BGL" files in that folder. Do you have any? Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fltboy Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 Hi Holger, Thanks for your prompt reply.Here are the search results of PAJN.bgl files on my computer: Please advise on further action I should take to solve my problem.

fltboy Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 Hi Holger, I moved FTX_AA_PAJN to the top of the scenery library in FSX. The result showed some improvement but two runway textures were still discernible as below: By the way, I have installed the latest Orbxlib. Does it have any impact on the runway textures? fltboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red2112 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Hi Holger, Thank you for your prompt reply. Here´s a screen shot and there´s 29 in SAK... I hope it´s the right directory (world). Thanks so much for your help Holger! Care, MIke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Hi guys, @ fltboy: in your case it's probably the last file in your list, AFX_PAJN.bgl, in the Traffic360 folder; deactivating it by renaming .bgl to .off should do the trick. @ Mike: all those files have the .OFF extension meaning they are inactive. With FTX Central set to North America they should have a .bgl extension. Try cycling FTX Central between different settings, pressing Apply each time, then set it back to NA and check whether the files have been renamed to .bgl. If not then something is preventing access to those files. Cheers, Holger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers, Holger Hi Holger, I did play with the settings as advised and when set to NA, all files are .bgl now, but if I set it back to FTX Global the root is the same as my last screen shot above with the off extensions. Is there a issue with this when set to FTX Global? Thanks again Holger for your kind help. Best, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holger Sandmann Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Hi Mike, there are two different Global modes, with and without the Hybrid checkbox selected. Only in hybrid mode will the regions and their airport elevations be active while the mode without Hybrid is meant to be the equivalent of the pre-Global "Default" button, with the exception that any separate Orbx airport addons will remain active as well.

fltboy Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 Hi Holger, After deactivating AFX_PAJN.bgl in the Traffic 360 folder, I found the problem persisted. Any other suggestions? fltboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fltboy Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 Hi Holeger, It seems FTX Aero is the culprit, given the fine runway texture at the end of the runway. If it is the case, how can I uninstall FTX Aero? fltboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fltboy Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 Hi Holger, This is to report that the runway texture problem was solved after I flushed the scenery indexes. Thanks for your attention. fltboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
