Problem at KSJC FSX by Imagine Sim

Featured Replies

Guys, I bought KSJC some time ago and found this airport hardly playable because of the following problems:

Also, when I start my flight at KSJC the scenery seems ok, except for the above, but if I fly from somewhere else into KSJC this is what I get:

If I change my view and look from above the textures look ok:

As I mentioned, when I start my flight at KSJC the textures are ok:

I don't know if it can be related but I checked the airport elevation with AFX and ADE, the stock APX15180.bgl shows 18.9 meters and afcad_ksjc.bgl by Imagine sim shows 17.68 meters.

 

I had this problem without underlying MegaScenery Earth block CA-009 first, than I installed it under KSJC and found the same anomalities.

 

Thanks,

Dirk.

 

Also, for what it matters, my Scenery settings are as follows:

Mesh complexity: 91

Mesh resolution: 10m

Texture resolution: 1m

Have you made sure that it is at the top of the library?

 

Also, have you downloaded the latest updates from ImagineSim?

 

It should fix the bumping on the first screenshot. Let's see if it fixes the bleed through textures of the underlying scenery.

 

Thanks, Ben!

Is that airport any good, I was thinking about getting it, do the jetways move with AES?

I have several ImagineSim Airports and I can tell you that 2 of them work correctly. KATL (I have version 1) and KCVG. If you do a search on the site you will see how they have repeatedly produced "broken" scenery.

 

Not a fan...been waiting over 2 years for fixes to the ones I have. Won't spend another dime with them until they fix what they have. Too bad really because they have many airports that I want to fly at and would buy.

Unfortunately the latest update does not cure the elevation / underlying textures problem. I'm waiting for the next communication from ImaineSim in a few days.

 

Cheers,

Dirk.

what is your mesh resolution set at ??

By any chance, are you using My Traffic?

I used the pro version of ADE to raise the elevation of the entire field 1m and that fixed it for me.

Scott, I have the pro version too. I open Tools and pick Change Airport Altitude in the menu. The default shows 17.68m. Please share how many meters (or feet) you put in there. Also, what did you do next? Did you just compile the Airport bgl? If it were the default airport I'd drop KSJC_ADEX_IP in Scenery\World\Scenery folder, but what to do for an add-on airport? Is there anything else needed to change or add?

 

Thanks,

Dirk.

No, I do not.

what is your mesh resolution set at ??

 

Mesh is set to 5m, can it be a problem?

 

Thanks,

Dirk.

Some scenery needs a high mesh resolution set but you setting is fine. Too low can cause issues where the scenery needs it to be set higher. I dont know what to tell you to do and I hater to tell you this but dont expect ANY help from the ImagineSim team..... :(

I'm having the same problem with Fly-Tampa Boston scenery. The altitude was set to 0 ft. It should be at 20. I will give this a try.

Leave Boston alone. It was set where it was for a reason. Read the Manual and it tells you why.

Imaginesim just released updates for KSLC, KCLT, and KIAD that appear to have fixed these sorts of problems in FSX. Updates are on their website.
