MegaScenery So. Cal, Vol 2 missing textures?

Featured Replies

I have attached an image showing an airplane sitting on runway 31L at Palm Springs (KPSP). I have missing textures on the sides of the mountains located to the west. I would like to hear from another owner of this software if they too have the missing textures. My original Vol 1 software did not have this problem. It showed up after loading the new Vol 2. I sent a message to MegaScenery, but have not yet received a response.Thanks,Jim

Yes, think you're right. Mine looks exactly the same. Jim

What happens if you set the season to Summer?

Changed to summer and it looks like all textures are there. Looks great.Jim

"Changed to summer and it looks like all textures are there. Looks great."May I add the manual states we will see the scenery in ALL seasons if using Windows XP/NTFS file system. So we should be seeing all the textures for winter too. Thanks.Jim

Thanks for the inputs. I changed to summer, and now all textures are there! I too remember reading that when using Windows XP, all textures would appear, in all seasons. Looks like a small bug. I will send a follow email to MegaScenery with this finding.Thanks again,Jim

Yes I too see a "strip" of textures somewhere south of LAX, perhaps south of Orange county. The colors in this strip are darker. However, at lease the textures are there, unlike the missing ones from the Palm Springs area (select summer, and then they are there).I guess this strip of darker colors should also be reported to MegaScenery.jim

Hi!I have the same problem. I have e-mailed to PCAviator a few days ago. Till now, no answer. RegardsJean-Pierre

They have left out the hw(hard winter) textures. FS mixes some in here and there. Easiest way would be to copy the wi textures to a separate folder, rename them as hw textures and copy them back to the original but that ould be a lot of work unless you have a bat file that would rename them automatically. I have yet to find a way to write a simple bat file that could do that without doing all the typing by myself. I am not a programmer. I am too dumb for that. No word from Megascenery yet as it seems.

Problem solved.There is an excellent utility called A.F.5 Rename available here:http://www.fauland.com/af5.htmYou can copy (not cut!!!) the xxxxwi.bmp files to a separate folder. Then replace the wi in the filename to hw with the string replace function (RTFM) of the rename program. Copy the hw files back to their original folders and voila: all textures visible in any season.You will have to do this folder by folder (SanBer_e, SantaA_ew etc.).But so far I have only seen the problem in (SanBer_e and SantaA_ew).Alex
