Major G2K malfunction

Turn that user account control *poop emoji* off. That is probably the problem.

Aaahhh. Such a relief!

Been playing around. Rebuilding some old Micronesia airfields, just to get my hand back in: Christmas Island ((Kiritomati), Fanning Island, Maiana Atoll. The airfields on Maiana and Fanning are just "penciled-in". The old Christmas Island field (Cassidy) still works fine.

Cheers,

Agreed John...I think I can even see some turtles and reef sharks swimming about.....

When can I book a holiday there? ;)

Glad it's all working again...it's that's comfortable warm feeling that all is well with the (sim) world.

Well, UT, if anybody would know, you sure would. BTW, I have been playing around with your Carolines pack: playing with the textures and trying to work out and follow how you and Jean got such great looking results. That is such a beautiful package.

Indeed it does, Shessi. Indeed it does!

BTW: I redid the call-outs of the polys inside the Fanning lagoon- which also necessitated reversing the "polarity" of the coral reef shorelines. Still needs some tweaking to the WC but I think this is a more realistic look.

Cheers guys,
Chris
