He has a couple of more at AVSIM for two other airports. I will grab them all tonight. I do a lot of flying in that area. Nice find, Chief.

Chief - did you install this and did you have any problems? I installed it - it's beautiful. I am having a problem with flickering ground textures. When I am on the ground some small lines flicker. Once airborne, ramps, taxiways, parts of the runway all flicker. I am sure it has to do with elevations, but I am not sure how to correct it. Is anyone seeing the same thing? Thanks! I hope I can get it to work. It really is terrific stuff!!

Don
 
Don, I have not installed it yet. I did look at some of the other screenshots in the file, and they really looked nice! I will install and check it out this afternoon. Chief
 
I think it's a mesh conflict. I don't know what mesh the author used, but it may not like what I have (PILOT). I'm still keeping the scenery. It's fine on the ground.

Don
 
Yes a mesh conflict . I use FSGlobal Ultimate - just reinstalled after giving it a miss for a year because of too many airfield plateaus , somehow looks better in v2.5 .

I used Orbx ftxConfigerator to no avail . Went to try Pilot's AFM ( Aerodrome flattening Meshes) to find its not compatible with v2.5 .They say they are considering doing an update - I hope so !

Anyhow, these fields are not too bad and add more value, and are useful so they stay in the sim
 
That is good news. I tried the ORBX Cfg too, and nothing there. I kept them too. They work fine on the ground. I knew it was a mesh problem. I just wanted it confirmed. Thanks all! Grab his other two. They are just as nice.

Don
 
I am wondering if in addition the author also has Aerosoft's Austria Pro scenery underlying it. I tried installing that and the flickering went away on my machine. It is quite old scenery now and since FTX Eu I haven't used it but like most things Aerosoft is still good quality stuff.

Hi Don,

I installed the scenery and did a preliminary test, no flickering, BUT I found "strange trenches"... After an "Auto-Configuration" session in ORBX Global Vector (I do it after every NEW scenery installation) ALL the buildings disappeared leaving only vehicles in the parkings !!!

:banghead::banghead::banghead::banghead:
 
We are getting different results with similar actions. I too ran the Auto Cfg and nothing changed. No trenches and the buildings all stayed. It is still usable though.
