No ground textures at the new VHHH....

Featured Replies

I decided to check out VHHH, and found that the ground textures were missing. The parallel runways were there with a few grey buildings and low polygon texture-less static aircraft, but nothing else. Is this a flaw in the 9Dragons scenery, or is this intentional?Thanks,Mitch

Hi,VHHH should not be there at all if you have 9Dragons active. I assume you have some sort of VHHH addon that is still active? Turn it off if you want to get rid of it. Or follow the instructions in this forum to reactivate it. The thread's title says exactly that.Hope this helps,--Tom GibsonCal Classic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.comFreeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.comDrop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___

It is just simulated to be built.Don't you have construction cranes moving around?Best regards,Rafal

There should be NO runways or static aircraft (it's not completed yet so how did they get there?!).Check that you have no other VHHH scenery still active.

Hi all,Along the same lines I seem to be missing quite a few textures from 9Dragons VHHX. Mainly I'm talking about all the airport buildings and also the famous hill and checkerboard. Finally some skyscrapers about 20 deegrees to the right of Rwy13.All these areas are blank with the buildings being grey and the hill blank white.I have tried reinstalling three times each time to the letter of the instructions.I never had any previous add-on scenery for this area and have been moving files around in fs9 (and earlier) for years, so I know I haven't made an obvious mistake.Anyone had a similar problem?:-hmmm Thanks for any help you can give

Hi Tom,What I have...is well..lol...sort of neat: At VHHH (Hong Kong-new)1. I have animated cranes raising and lowering beams and bales.2. I have two active (I landed on one, nice approach over the bay) parallel and working runways (lighting and all)3. I have buildings, here and there, actually looking like they are in the process of being built, with some older-looking FS98-style static planes on the property, and then white for ground textures. There are two control towers, one 1/3 higher than the other.---------------------------------------I have the FS9 Hong Kong aerial view deactivated, and have no custom Hong Kong scenery. I just edited this post to say that I have again checked my Scenery Folder as well as Addon Scenery and have no custom VHHH scenery. It must be in the VHHX scenery installation.So, looks like I got a little more (no complaints!) then some, if nothing is supposed to be there other than 9Dragon's VHHX.

Beat's me?!?Please read my reply to Tom.All in that message is there. It doesn't affect anything or cause CTD's. In fact, it was a good approach to the Bay-side runway at VHHH where you have to come in low over the mountains and make a quick decent adjustment to get back on proper glide-path. The two runways (which are fully textured and are encapsulated by the white/missing ground texture)have the same approach lighting that extends out into the bay as KSFO does, but I like this application better!If 9Dragons didn't do this...then Santa Claus did some programming when I wasn't looking, after VHHX installation....ROTFLMBO!I consider it then a bonus...a great VHHX and a building-in-progress VHHH with cranes and no money budgeted for concrete and pavement taxi ways yet....:)Cheers!Mitch
