When do you get the popup error? during install? loading flight?

What program you using? fsx, fsx:se, p3dv1, p3dv2 or p3dv3?

 

Thanks

Paul

Loading flights in FSX with ORBX SoCal with the latter properly selected in your Control Panel.

 

After another delete and reinstall, that message hasn't reappeared.

 

But now I have no buildings. Some ground textures, and there are holes in terrain.

 

Tried emptying scenery cache, but no joy.

Have a look in the scenery library and check it shows the airport then check it has put the file in the "scenery" and "texture" folder (located here "{FSX/P3D}\SIM720\Airports\SIM720_KCRQ\"

If that all looks normal post a screenshot of what you see ingame.

Moved sim720 files too top of scenery list and buildings now appear, but there are some very strange shadows and cutouts

 

See "piano keys"by B-17's tail, for example, and odd dark shadow

 

fsx%202016-04-30%2014-05-23-44.jpg?dl=1

 

And the texture cutout just beyond the 500' stripes.

Impressive job, mates. I've flown out of this airport for almost 20 years, and you captured it very well. Only gripe is all the commuters on the ramp. They should all be biz jets to get the flavor right. In fact, nowadays that is no commuter service into Palomar.

Is you control panel is set the same as this picture

kcrq.jpg

If so check that these files have been renamed with .OFF at the end of them i.e. "filename.bgl.off"

  • Scenery\\World\\Scenery\\ADE_FTX_SCA_KCRQ_elevation_adjustment.bgl
  • ORBX\\FTX_NA\\FTX_NA_SCA05_SCENERY\\scenery\\ADE_FTX_SCA_KCRQ.bgl
  • ORBX\\FTX_NA\\FTX_NA_SCA05_SCENERY\\scenery\\ADE_FTX_SCA_KCRQ_CVX.bgl
  • ORBX\\FTX_NA\\FTX_NA_SCA05_SCENERY\\scenery\\FTX_SCA_objects_KCRQ_PLC.bgl

If they are all disabled do you have any other mesh addons as it looks like a terrain problem.
