I am having a problem with the AI. I don't have any! :( If your AI is working, please explain how you did it, and what you have your settings set to. I am running UT2, and I hope that isn't the problem. Thanks for any input!! The scenery itself is GREAT!!!!!!! Payware for sure!!

Not quite sure what you've tried since your post lacks specificity, but...

1. The included AI bgl files are in "FSX format" as opposed to the perhaps more common FS9 (FS2004) AI format. I have converted all of my existing AI (including WOAI traffic) to FSX format. You can't mix traffic formats.
2. I copied the included bgl files into my scenery/world/scenery folder in FSX.
 
I placed them where you have yours and no joy. I wonder if UT2 is in FS9 format, which according to you, would lock these out. Any knowledge about that? This should be very easy! LOL! I hate these problems, because they are usually so easy to fix, but it drives you nuts finding the fix! Thanks!!

yes, i had the same problem. i adjusted the airport altitude with ade.

place the attached file in the scenery folder, rename PHBK_ADEX_GK.bgl as PHBK_ADEX_GK.backup.

Did the change and added PHBK_ADEX_PK.bgl and still have the elevation issue .
 
Here is what's called, a "stub" file for Barking Sands - PHBK that I got from the developer. It should (?) fix any of the ghosting around the runway and aprons.

For some reason, people think the easiest and quickest way to solve terrain problems is by changing an elevation. There's a certain payware product that seems to want to change every other airport's elevation on the planet and you see the forums of the world peppered with people asking "Where'd my runway go?"

Barking Sands had/has no reason to be changed from it's default elevation, but the developer did it anyway. Such is life, on a "Super Bowl Sunday..."

Thanks, meshman. I was able to get rid of the ghosting. My concern now is the AI. I would LOVE to see that working. I have a feeling it has something to do with UT2.

You can convert your UT2 traffic to FSX format with the following:

I already had all of my traffic (WOAI and some custom packages) converted to FSX format, and the files includes in this Hawaiian airports packaged worked with no issues (after moving them to scenery/world/scenery).

Quoting myself??? :dizzy:

Realized that I forgot to mention that the file above should be placed in the \Scenery\World\scenery folder.
 
The scenery is first rate and the AI works a charm, thanks George Keogh, and thanks for the fix Meshman, it dose it's job just fine. Been in the circuit at PHBK with F-16s all afternoon!

Looking forward to #3! :encouragement::encouragement:

Although the files are huge, I can recommend them all.
I can now explore the detail of the islands especially the details of the mountains and farm lands.
The airports are really good too.

Many thanks to George Keogh for this excellent scenery . A lot of talent and hard work went into this . Can't wait until future additions are released . Hope Wheeler is included some day . May the " Pink Palace " near Wheeler too ! LOL . A few pics just driving around Ford Island .

Speaking of which, 2-6 Cav "Lightning Horse" deployed from Wheeler last week to ROK and I guess is the last operational deployment of the Kiowa Warrior for the Army. When complete those aircraft will return to CONUS for disposal/layup.

A little confused with some of the reported issues. If I install this into my vanilla FSX Steam install I should be all good right regarding these elevation settings?

cheers,
Lewis
 
No, Steam will vaporize any problems... :biggrin-new:

Install it and go to PHBK-Barking Sands. Start on the runway or a parking spot. If you see the runway/apron at eye level, then you need the elevation correction file.

And then we can all sit and wonder why these developers change elevations more than they change their underwear!!! :mixed-smiley-027:
 
Not understanding how we can complain about airport plateaus and then complain when fixing that issue requires adjusting things to fit the reality of the terrain better...

I'm sitting here thinking "Oh no, what a dumba$$ I am". :p87:

Here's why... The very first scenery work I ever did was ...

I'll drop George (the developer) a note ... I'll let him know and see if he wants to release a fix or what.

His files 1 & 2 on Avsim's library are reporting errors

File not found

Firefox can't find the file at http://library.avsim.net/sendfile.php?Location=AVSIM&Proto=ftp&DLID=188459.

Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.


#3 downloads fine

Could you check with him about that, or has he gone payware?

Thanks,

Chas
