Progressive arrows

Can't get the progressive runway arrows to show up unless I do top down view and zoom in very close to airplane. I think it might be wrong settings, but have not had any results adjusting them. :smile:

The progressive taxi lines don't work or show up with some addon airports due to the way the ground textures are rendered. They should work fine on all default airports.

 

What airports are they not working correctly and are they addon airports or stock?

Progressive taxi tends to have a mind of its own sometimes.  You can taxi on one taxiway with it on, then turn left on the next taxiway and it disappears.   Sometimes if you shift your view slightly (if you're in VC), then it magically appears.   I deal with this by first checking where the active runway is located (including its number) before leaving the tarmac, take a look at the airport with top down view and get a feel of the general path you would take if progressive taxi suddenly stopped working or unavailable.   Sometimes you can take a better path than what is directed by ATC.

The airports I use are the stock ones in FSX,  the progressive taxi always worked well, just lately been acting up, but I will learn not to rely on it. Thank you to both for your help.

If progressive taxi doesn't work, try the follow-me truck described in this post - http://www.avsim.com/topic/411841-follow-me-car/. Installed easily and works well for me.
