Hi,I have an issue with missing coastlines in Greece. The problem is local, only affecting a small area: LGSM (Samos) and a few other neighboring islands.A long while ago I installed Hellas Scenery Project base scenery and some freeware sceneries for Greece (GAP)I don't have a clue where to start looking.Are there files missing, or is it an exclude file, or...??Any help is appreciated.

I'm not at my flight sim computer right now, but I remember having this problem with the combination of their sceneries installed. Go back into the readmes and make sure you have all recommended landclass and basepack mesh sceneries installed, and (this is critical) layered in the correct order in your scenery settings. Try putting the landclass folder(s) ABOVE all the sceneries.Do you have Ultimate Terrain Europe installed too?

Look in FS9\Scenery\Asia\Scenery for files containing 8815. [edit]change to 5518[/edit]You may find some that have been de-activated by changing the extension to .bak or something similar.Rename the to filename.bgl and test.Specifically, I would look for HL988150.bgl and HP988150.bgl. [edit]change to HL955180.bgl and HP95518.bgl[/edit]You can extract them from FS9 disc #4 in SCENERY\ASIA.cab\for more info see this page - http://205.252.250.26/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1241545570Hope this helpsJoe[edit]During a moment of dyslexia, I rearranged the numbers 5518 to 8815. my bad![/edit]

I will do that and yes, I have UT Europe also installed

Hi Joe,I'll check it tonight and report back.How do you know it must be the xx988150.bgl's?Thanks for both your help so far.

I edited my previous post to correct some misleading info!!!

How do you know it must be the xx988150.bgl's?

First I opened the default LGSM in Afcad2.21.Then I looked at the airport properties, which is shown in the red box in this screenshot. (I overlayed a copy from Afcad on top of LWMViewer.) The highlighted box on the bottom gives you the file the airport is located in.Then I opened all *955180.bgl files in LWMViewer (which is available in the library). With that program you can see what the default coastlines, road sytems, railways, power lines, water bodies etc. are supposed to look like.For a point of reference, this screenshot shows the area covered by the *955180.bgl files.Or you can open files in LWMViewer by lat/lon, and it can follow FS9 via FSUIPC.Lastly, for those that don't know...xx955180.bglxx=type of scenery elements contained in the file ie; AP= airport data, AB= airport backgrounds, RR=railways, UT=power lines etc.9=placeholder5518=the LOD5 tile covered by the file. the size of an LOD5 tile is displayed in the 2nd screenshot, approx 2.8125 degrees latitude by 3.75 degrees longitude0=another placeholder.bgl=some type of scenery file (yes I know, traffic is nothing more than moving scenery).Hope this helps,Joe
