Faulty Ground Textures

P3Dv4.2

Anyone know what might be causing the loss many taxiways etc? I thought it was ORBX, but after uninstalling all orbx nothing changes.  I also have UTX installed.

Try deleting generated files in P3d main folder.

ive noticed blurry scenery patches with 4.2 and orbx 

i  have tried everything.

 

i might revert back to 4.1 

see if that helps. I hope 

as I do not want to reinstall.

Not much feedback on this, but it seems its definitely UTX thats the problem.  Its happening at every airfield in Europe & North America, and when I uninstall both areas of UTX, the issue is gone.

I guess UTX is either not fully compatible with P3Dv4.2 or it's a layering issue.

Think I'll try reinstalling UTX and playing around with scenery order....

Dougal,

I don't think it is the UTX that cause the problem. I have the same problem from v. 4.0 up to v. 4.2 with several European airports and I don't  use any scenery add-on.

You're right.  I've now identified it.

Its MyTraffic6 in my case. There MAYBE a way to fix it, as I've heard that some are using MT6 with P3Dv4.2

I've been installing MT6a using the XML method, and as soon as I add the scenery portion of the addon, it hides many taxi ways and textures.

There's probably a way of installing without this happening, but i don't yet know how...

Great, you might be on the right track. However, I don't use any scenery add-on or in your case MT.

I have to dig deeper in to P3D and see what I can find.

I don't use MT, but if it installs AFCADS that are made for FSX, they will have to be converted into P3D AFCADS.

FSX AFCADS have a different flag for taxiways, so they don't appear in P3D v3 or v4.

OK thanks Devin, that makes sense.

Finally 'bit the bullet' and bought Ultimate Traffic Live now!

How about moving MT6 further down in the scenery.cfg file?  I know that it causes issues for me in its default location with sometimes having multiple towers at some airports.
