Friday Harbor filled with forest

Recommended Posts

Upon removing FSX-Classic (boxed version) and replacing it with FSX-Steam Edition, I made a few simple default flights around Friday Harbor in the Ultratrike.  First flights were with default FSX scenery.  No problem.  I then installed ORBX Global, Vector, and Pacific Northwest.  Another flight around Friday Harbor in the Ultratrike.  Looks much better.


 


 


I then went through the process of re-installing all of my ORBX products (CRM, Pacific Fjords, Northern California, KHQM, other ORBX airports). 


 


Started FSX-SE, went back to Friday Harbor and the harbor is completely filled with a forest.  Not a drop of water in sight.  Went to Bowerman (KHQM)... same thing.


 


Used the PNW User Manual and adjusted all of the FSX sliders accordingly.  No change.


 


What did I do wrong?  How do I fix it?


 


Thanks.

Update: 


 


1. I downloaded/installed the latest ORBXLIBS


 


2. At some point in the process of installing the remainder of the ORBX products, FTX Central tells me (3 times I have to click "OK" before it moves on), "Terrain.cfg has no [LandClasses] section"


 


3. I began a flight at KSFO and the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay look like grassy prairies, so it doesn't appear to be limited to the Pacific Northwest.


 


Thanks.

Update:


 


I trust you now see my signature with FTX product information.  Please let me know if you don't.


 


I moved all of the scenery sliders back to about halfway.  That didn't appear to change anything.


 


I installed Pacific Fjords today and started a flight at Bella Coola.  Trees littered the runway.


 


I went to FTC Central and changed from North America to Global.  Went back to mid-flight in the ultralight at Friday Harbor.  This time there was water, but it was littered with trees.


 


Thanks.

I suspect that the terrain.cfg file has become corrupt.

This topic explains how to repair it.

I followed the directions in the linked article.


 


After copying the backup copy of terrain.cfg into the FSX directory, I went to FTX Central.  No more missing Terrain.cfg messages.  Went to Friday Harbor; it looks a lot more like a harbor.  Went to Bella Coola, no more trees on the runway.  Went to San Francisco; San Francisco Bay looks just like a large body of water.


 


Thanks!
