Hi all,

I have an issue with "Split level" airports both commercial and native in P3D4. "Split level" airports, as I call them, is where the basic airport is level but other ground, such as that between runways and taxi/access paths are at a different (usually lower)  level. I have found samples such as native P3D KDEN and commercial airports such as Dreamteam's KLAS. I have also discovered that whilst FSDT's KDFW is level all vehicles have their wheels buried into the ground surface by about 6" to 9".  However, my other commercial purchased airports appear OK and I have had no problems with other inbuilt airports although I haven't visited very many

I have has similar problems in FSX and have fixed them by running AFX and placing a flatten polygon around the airport. However I know of no handy tool such as AFX for Prep3D. I also have most of ORBX's  US products installed whether these have an impact I do not know.

If anyone can point can point me in the right direction to solve these issues I would be most grateful. I have also noticed that Prep3D's loading times seem to have grown a lot just recently. All help an info appreciated. Thanks

Did you install or update FSDT GSX recently?

I'm also interested in the flattening thing. I have a serious issue at KMHT.

As to KLAS it always showed issues as well, I'm waiting for FlyTampa version.

Yes, I had an auto update to GSX 2 (trial version Apparently). Not much use when ones a/c is standing on the ground but the gates and jetways are 40' up in the air!

Exactly the same issue here, gates and jetways 40` up...

This may explain the extended loading times, etc. Search for a thread here called "massive blurries" or something like that.
