Strange Ramp Textures Default Airports

Featured Replies

I discovered that my ramp textures for several FS2004 default airports look really strange! So far I have seen this effect at KSEA, KORD, KPHX, and KSFO. Please see the attached screenshot of the ramp at KORD. At first it looked like the ramps were covered with default ground textures, but as I changed and rotated my view of the aircraft I found that the real texture appeared to be visible "under" the ground texture! What could possibly be causing thie effect on a default airport? I have other custom airports and perhaps a critical texture file was overwritten. I found an airport in the library to replace the default KPHX, but how can I fix my other ramps that I mentioned?

 

Thanks for any help!

One thing that all those airports have in common is the default photoreal textures.

 

I would make sure they are all active in the Scenery Library.

By going to the Scenery Library and verifying there are check marks next to "cityname Arial Photo".

I checked the scenery library and ALL of my cityname aerial photo entries are checked. I even tried unchecking the Chicago one and everything was the same. I just can't figure out why the ramp texture for those airports are green grass!

 

Thanks again for your help! Let me know if you have anything else that I could try.
