Strange mesh problem.

Meshes seem to cause me more trouble and headache than anything else. I belive i have posted at least 3 different mesh threads here.

This time i am having trouble with the landscape in FInland, near the airport EFKA.

I dont really know if it is a mesh problem, it seems more like a drawing problem or a rendering problem.

Here is what happens: The landscape is corrupted with very steep plateau´s and very steep abysses. If you slew closer, the mesh seems to fix it self and the ground becomes flat and textured again, but if i look behind me the same mesh errors start to appear behind me at the same rate that those in front of me get fixed.

I have checked some other locations and the problem seems to be isolated to this area (i have ofcourse not checked the whole globe but just my most commonly used locations).

I am using a custom mesh but the problem exists without the custom mesh also. :isadizzy:

I will post a screenshot later on.

It would be nice if someone could check if they have the same problem around efka in Finland. And it would be even nicer if someone had an explanation to this strange phenomenon.
 
strange, must be some addon i have but i have very few for that area, only some small airfields and som ai-traffic. I have a global landclass but i have never heard of a landclass file that causes problems like this.
 
YUP..Bet its an addon issue..

maybe you can disable them and then add them back in one at a time till you find the culprit..then ask the devs for that product what they think is going on..
 
Yeah that is a good suggestion, tiresome but hopefully it works.

Thanks for verifying that your fsx setup works fine, that way i know it is local at least.

Problem solved. It was a mesh problem as i suspected. It was a freeware mesh for scandinavia that caused this strange behaviour. When i looked at the jpeg showing the coverage area it should not cover the area were i encountered the problem so at first i ruled it out.

I feel happy that the problem is fixed :jump: but now i am out of a better mesh for Scandinaviathan the default. is it anyone who has some experience with a mesh for this area? Payware or freeware does not matter right now.
