October 7, 200817 yr Hi Folks:I apologize if I am a little behind here, but I just noticed that most of downtown Detroit is in the river and the bridge into downtown is over land! Is this due to Ultimate Terrain and/or is there a fix? I searched the scenery design forum but found nothing pertinent.

October 7, 200817 yr Hi,I have UT and Detroit is my home airport and I have never seen this. Any other scenery installed for this area?Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
October 8, 200817 yr Author Hi Jim:Besides UT, I have scenery files for the Windsor airport, Ambassador Bridge, and the Detroit airport (KDTW_V2). The bridge file is from 2003. Maybe its the bridge?Airbus Al Kaupa Digital Storm purchased 8/17/2011; Win7x64: Asus P8P67 Deluxe; Intel i7 2600K@3,9 GHZ; nVidia GTX 560Ti; 8GB DDR3 1600 Corsair Dominator; Power Corsair HX 750W; Samsung 850 EVO 500GB SSD; 300GB WD VelociRaptor; 1TB Seagate.
October 8, 200817 yr Hi,If they are activated in the Scenery Library, deactivate them and then exit FS and restart. Then see what happens.Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
October 8, 200817 yr Author Hi Jim:I tried removing some other scenery for the area, but nothing worked. I then uninstalled UT and that solved the problem! Now I need to find out whether there is a fix for the Detroit area. Here are some before and after screenshots.Thanks for your help!Airbushttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/193095.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/193096.jpg Al Kaupa Digital Storm purchased 8/17/2011; Win7x64: Asus P8P67 Deluxe; Intel i7 2600K@3,9 GHZ; nVidia GTX 560Ti; 8GB DDR3 1600 Corsair Dominator; Power Corsair HX 750W; Samsung 850 EVO 500GB SSD; 300GB WD VelociRaptor; 1TB Seagate.
October 9, 200817 yr This is what will happen with UT. DTW is also my home airport and I remember this when I installed UT. I do believe there is a fix for this somewhere at AVSIM but I don't remember the file. Because of these problems, I uninstalled UT a long time ago. I can say, however, that UT is definitely causing the problem. I remember the anomaly well. You may want to visit the flight 1 forums to see if someone can locate the fix.

October 9, 200817 yr Author Thanks Jeff!

October 10, 200817 yr Hi All,I have UT and have never installed a special file or fix for the Detroit area.Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
October 10, 200817 yr Have you tried posting this over at the Ultimate Terrain forum? This happened to my Miami scenery and it was just a matter of what order my UT was in relation to my other scenery in the Scenery list.

October 13, 200817 yr No, I don't even have that installed!!Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
October 13, 200817 yr I think what Jeff is saying is that you need to install that. Almost a must have if using UT-USA. Smooth Skies! -- Chuck B.

October 14, 200817 yr Jim,It is quite possible that you have a later version of UT than I had. The later version may have some of the corrections. In fact, I do believe there was a second version - the version I was questioning whether I should install when I was in the Flight 1 forums. Frankly, it has been so long ago since I uninstalled UT that I don't remember what transpired but I do know that may of the buildins along the coast were misplaced by MS. When UT came along and put the coasts in the right place, many of the buildings and bridges ended up in the water. Downtown Detroit was one of the areas affected. People have made corrections over time and some of those correction may be been incorporated in to a UT update.
