An "Oldie" Revisited

[falcon409]

Pete, I just checked my P3D_V4.3 installation and I don't see that at all. What I can do though is do a simple flatten which should fix it. I won't be able to get to it til this evening. . .I'm getting ready to go pick up my Great Granddaughter from school and take care of her til her Mom gets off work.

Never a priority with me, Ed! I am simply thankful for all that you do! Pet

Beautiful airport, Ed! Thanks!

I wish the tree colors in P3DV4 were a little more realistic. Not enough color differences! Pete

Try disabling speed trees in your graphics config. It will revert to normal FSX legacy trees with nicer colors and you'll also get an FPS boost.

These trees may move with the wing and have more complex geometry but overall they look terrible imho.

Loaded the scenery in P3D_V4.3 to go fly a bit and as I looked back up the rwy. . .this was the view. Classic Early Morning in the Catskills.

Hi Ed, nice scenery...but...

My default startup position puts me in the trees way off the end of runway 06...

and when I do reach that end of the runway... (seems okay nearer the hangars)

Oh dear!

Also seem to have a jeep hanging off my static's wing...

Any chance of your elevation fix when done?

Cheers, A.

ps. absolutely no other scenery files for this area at all, checked and double checked.

That's interesting. I realized that mistake only minutes after posting to the uploads section so I made the correction to the runway length and start position and uploaded a new package. That new revised package should have been what everyone was downloading once it became available.

The elevation fix was uploaded this morning. As soon as Rami can get it approved it will be available.

. . . .Also seem to have a jeep hanging off my static's wing. . .

Sorry but since both are static objects, they'll have to remain "mates", lol

Thanks for getting back on this Ed. Maybe I was too keen to download and ended up with an earlier version.
Will try another download and check.

As for the static plane & jeep, the wing is actually embedded in the jeep. Any chance of slightly shifting one or t'other ? Pretty please? Just slightly detracts from the immersion factor!

Very nice scenery and a good reason to explore an unvisited area.

Cheers, A.


Edit. Just downloaded and tested what is currently in the library, and unfortunately the start position is still in the trees as in my first post (identical files to what I already had). A.

Great scenery! Thank you Ed!

 

[Postbaer61]

Thank you ED, for another gem.

The flatten file file works perfect in P3D4, but the start point is indeed in woods.

 

[falcon409]

Just got a PM from Rami. . .I believe the correct file is now available to fix the "In the Woods" start point.

 

[Postbaer61]

I fear this is the updated airport, it had the flatten file included.
The CVX_Downsville_flatten.BGL works very well,but the
start point is befor the runway in the trees.

 

[falcon409]

EVERYONE! See the new thread with the attached zipfile!

 

[Postbaer61]

Thanks, Ed
It's perfect now.
The start point was not a biggy for me.
Sorry,if i have upset you.

Nope not at all. I've been unable to sleep very well for the past few weeks getting maybe 4 hours a night sometimes less. I feel worn out and making mistakes like this is a product of that I guess. I don't seem to be able to release anything that doesn't have mistakes that require multiple updates. It's on me, no one else.

I sympathize with you Ed, whatever you've got you're not alone. I've also experienced that for the last month or so. It's certainly a pain in the a** isn't it? Good luck with yours my friend...

 

[Navy Chief]

Heck, with my back pain, were it not for meds, I would never get ANY sleep! NC

Love the airport, Ed! Beautiful! Pete

 

[aardvark62]

Challenging approach? Nah...

Apparently this S-55 was a regular visitor to the Catskills in the 1950's (Although I doubt if it ever actually pulled up here!)

Great little airfield. All sorted. Thanks Ed.
