I can confirm there is something strange around CLN. I always get freezes in its vicinity. Not as bad as what the OP describing, but nevertheless something that are definitely freezes, rather than just stutters 

The Clacton problem can be fixed by either disabling the ocean wave controllers or setting special effects to zero.

Where to disable them,

Thanks!

Here is a fix for those of you having that problem with the CLN VOR.

Open C:\P3D\ORBX\Scripts\unified\regions\terrain_global_v.cfg and deactivate the following line in 6 of 91:


//Effect=ORBX_wavecontroller

Now it should look like this:


// ORBX FTXG_V custom vectors 6 of 91
[Texture.XXX]
Name=FTXG_V_Shoreline_Ocean_Vectors
Color=FFC0C000
guid={0a7ef90e-4440-490a-93c8-19e43e9aa3bf}
Textures=FTXG_V_shore_ocean_su.bmp,FTXG_V_shore_ocean_hw.bmp,FTXG_V_shore_ocean_su.bmp,FTXG_V_shore_ocean_su.bmp,FTXG_V_shore_ocean_su.bmp
Layout=3_PLUS_4
StripWidthMeters=30
//Effect=ORBX_wavecontroller
LandClassRemapType=none
ExcludeAutogen=Yes
RenderToTexture=Yes
RenderPriority=93000
Water=No

Now launch FTX Central and wait for some seconds.

Then launch the sim and try it out by flying around EGSQ airport.
 

 

Great finding if that fixes it, but I am interested in the downside to doing this. Do I lose anything like effects at other areas? And if this is the problem does Orbx know about it and can they just fix it instead?

Yes, you will lose the "waves" on coastlines.

Personally, I would find that to be a good thing.

Waves on all coastlines around the world?!

Perhaps it's good, can't I just disable waves in ORBX Vector settings?

Thanks.

I don't think there is a Vector setting for waves.

Maybe you could search the terrain.cfg file for GB and

disable those entries that include a wavecontroller.

From London to shoreline waves ... As this thread has already been hijacked, I guess I am allowed to bring this to your attention:

Two flights out of London today both though CLN

this fix works 

thank you.

Same here, using it.

Thanks
