At a few hundred metres Jetways disappear

Featured Replies

Anyone can tell me is there a setting for stopping the jetways from disappearing at a certain distance?Daniel

Hi,What are your computer specs? Your computer may not be powerful to keep up with FSX so the jetways drop out.

Is the problem all airport jetways or a particular airport? Some products are designed with levels of detail, mip maps that only "pop" into view at certain distances, usually designed this way to lessen the load on computer resources.

I'll go check UK2000 EGLL which I have. Actually I think it is all airports. But let me go check first.It seems jetways 'turn off' at a distance a few hundred metres.......Daniel

This is a little too close for jetways to disappear. Can I make them not disappear?FSDreamteam and default FSX airports don't have this issue. Also on the Imaginesim scenery I noticed objects (like luggage etc) also disappeared.Daniel
