September 29, 200718 yr Hi. I installed Gottfried Razek's impressive hi-res LA scenery (Los Angeles Intl. v2 (LAX, HHR, CPM)) lax2007_hr.zip from AVSIM. I must be missing something here as I can't see any other posts on this - but as great as it looks from on high, when you land at KLAX, on all the parking bays, and dotted about the taxiways, there are flat 2D impressions of aircraft, as if they have been steam-rollered into the tarmac. Presumably the a/c would have been there when the photos were taken, but surely they aren't supposed to be visible like this when you land? The effect is really weird, and so I've uninstalled the scenery for now. (Kept the great downtown LA scenery!!).Is lax2007_hr only for high altitude fly-bys then or, as I say, am I being dense in some way here?Thanks!Martin :-) Martin Stebbing, EGLF (UK)
September 29, 200718 yr Martin,I just figured this out myself - Set your NAV2 dial to 117.00 and this will disable the airport high-res overlay only. At least, this is how it is for both the KSFO and PHNL sceneries, so I assume it is the same for LAX - the readme will say for sure.And yes, it is great stuff.Brian
September 29, 200718 yr Author Thanks Brian. I remember reading about setting the NAV2 dial to 117.00, but I didn't realise this was the reason. Will try it out.Martin Martin Stebbing, EGLF (UK)
September 29, 200718 yr You REALLY need to do this at night, IIRC, or you get a dark airport.scott s..
September 30, 200718 yr Author Yes the Nav2 setting puts the airport back to 'normal'. Not sure what you mean about doing this 'at night' Scott??? Have I missed the joke or something? :-)M. Martin Stebbing, EGLF (UK)
October 2, 200718 yr Hi,Try *not* setting the NAV2 radio and then try to land at the airport at night. You'll figure out what he was saying...--Tom GibsonCal Classic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.comFreeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.comDrop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___ Tom Gibson CalClassic Propliner Page
