Green belt

[vgbaron 3,496]

After doing a full install of 2.3 along with FTX Global, Vector and FSG2010 I took off from KBUR and have these green belts going through the scenery. I don't recall them being there before.

 

Any thoughts on how to correct?

 

Thanx,

 

Vic

Disable power lines in the FTX Vector control panel

Someone on the ORBX official message boards also posted a change to terrain.cfg that narrows the width of the power line "green belts", so that they don't look so out of place in developed areas.  I'll see if I can find it, because it wasn't posted recently. If you open terrain.cfg with an editor, you can find two utility lines entries. The width of the grassy strip is set here:

 

StripWidthMeters=17

 

That's roughly 56 feet wide, so that looks out of place in a city. You seem to also have "green belts" without power lines so that may just be a bug for that one location. Is it common for you? I've never seen it at all with Vector 1.15.

I never noticed it until I installed 2.3 full and reinstalled Global and Vector. I just disabled power lines and that seems to have removed the problem. I just don't recall doing that before.

Vector 1.20 is just about ready to rock, according to John V. He posted that it will be out within a week or two.

Hope they make the change in the new version. I made the change in the terrain.cfg file an it does the trick.

 

Thanx!
