FSX cockpit GPS terrain feature

Featured Replies

Pilots,I had an issue with the default GPS displays (Garmin GPS295 and Garmin GPS500) where they were not showing any terrain elevation detail other than color. I discovered that there were no terrain relief shadows showing on the displays. Which give you an overhead view of the surrounding terrain relief. This is so you can gauge the height of the terrain near your aircraft by seeing the 3D elevation features of the mountains or hills nearby.If you are having a similar issue with these displays in FSX, please go to this thread I started on Flightsim.com, (Not sure if I'm going to get in trouble for this since it is my first ever post on these forums) :( http://forums.flightsim.com/vbfs/showthread.php?t=201900If you follow along until the conclusion, (AND YOU WILL NEED TO READ THROUGH AT LEAST POST #9 OR YOU'LL MISS AN IMPORTANT STEP) you can see how to fix this issue if you need to.Hope this helps you out as it did for me,Brad
