gray areas

[chik 1]

Message OK so I might have done something wrong somewhere along the line but WHERE???!!!. Let me first explain. I have large areas of gray in my scenery. Some cover about 100 square miles (diamond point and strom for example) Another covers the whole New York and surrounding area.(about 2-300 square miles and yet another place is upsyate New York with the scenery hap hazardly gray in smaller patches mixed with good but the latter covering maybe 5-600 square miles. I have installed mega scenery for NY flew it and it was good. then one day it was gray so I took it out but is still gray.I have installed "Lennarts Textures" and I have a slight suspicion it might have something to do with it. I have also found a scenery config tweak somewhere and was messing around with it a little. It to is a possible culprit. If anyone has an original scenery config could you send me one? Thanks for all your help! b.honcoop@insightbb.com

The only time I encountered larger portions of the ground being grayed was after installing photomesh and then switching to "winter" in the time/date dialog.The photomesh looked okay when "summer" was active, but with "winter" set, it overlaid the ground with an ugly, gray carpet...Andreas

yes, thats what it looks like but in all seasons. Did you manage to fix it and how?

That was enough reason for me to delete all VFR scenery. I'm not going to use such again...Andreas

hello. I wanted to post a new message to tell you that I found the solution to the gray areas (large gray blocks) that I was having. The problem was that I had activated a landclass folder in the scenery library that shouldn't have been. The sim was trying to read two sets of BGL's creating a conflict. So far everything looks really good. lennarts textures are a great add-on. I do not use the texture switch with all the complicated instructions. There are two downloads for his textures and can be found at(http://www.fsfreeware.com/dcd/General_Textures/). One is the main download(aprox 56 megs) and the other is the update. Both are necesary.
