Anyone using Vietnam War Project scenery in P3D ?

Anyone using Xavier's excellent Vietnam War Project scenery in P3D v2.4 ? I have it loaded with ORBX's FTX Global (base textures) and FTX Vector and it displays well with the exception of grassy taxiways where asphalt or concrete should be . I can't remember whether it is a general airfield elevation , mesh or vector problem . It was one of my favorite sceneries when I had it loaded in FSX . If anyone has it loaded and running well or has any suggestions jump in .

Rich, I haven't tried it at all yet and I have the same FTX setup that you do. Guess I should give it a go. I do know that Orbx has a unique way of handling terrain mesh and airport elevations. I've had elevation problems with simple GA airfields.
 
I don't find any link to the Objects Libraries. They are mentioned on the main page and there is a link to another page where they are supposed to be, but once there, there is no download link available.
 
I see the same general problem that Crusader mentions. The runways appear to be fine, but the taxiways are gone.Seems odd given the fact that the few I checked were on level ground. . .the taxiways are attached to the rwy so all sit at the same elevation so not sure why they don't show up.

Disappearing taxiways are a known issue in P3Dv2, you can fix them with the ADEX 1.6 taxi links "Reset All Draw Flags" tool.

I couldn't find that exact tool, not sure where you found it as it doesn't show in the latest version under the "Tools" dropdown, however I did notice that the taxiways for VDPP were set to not draw, so by ticking those boxes I did get part of the taxiway showing, I just have to do that to all the connected paths to get the entire taxiway showing again.
 
Ed, in the menu bar you need to select "Lists", then pick "Taxi Links" : The "Reset All Draw Flags" button is in the lower right corner.
