Free Scenery migration to V4.4 Do I need to change anything?

Recommended Posts

I am trying to install a scenery(http://vatjo.net/JO_Sceneries_VATSIM.zip)   into "Addon Scenery" folder in P3D v4.4 (Clean Install) just like it was in V3, but am having issues.

Seems like I am floating over the scenery below me, then it settles down and "lines up"  but I am on the original runway below the scenery, and then I "crash" as I accelerate on the runway.

It then reverts to the startup flight after a "soft" crash.

Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong?

If you read the "read me" text,

WE KNOW OF AN ELEVATION ISSUE FOR THE RUNWAYS. WE ARE WORKING TO FIX THIS BUT AT THIS TIME, HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO DO SO. Moreover, black boxes appear beneath taxiway signs and certain lamp posts. We are working on a fix.

That to me explains quite a few problems you are having. After reading the supplied disclaimers, I deleted the download.

I will add that sometimes you can reload a few times and it will eventually settle down (seems P3D figures out the load sequence,{but I could be wrong about P3D doing it} and then will work right. But since this is for Vatsim and not for AI use, I promptly canned it.

I read it a while back Jim, but it was never an issue in the previous versions straight out of the box.

I was under the impression that it was OK to use outside of Vatsim, and the AI works fine with no issues.

I will try to load it up a few times to see if that does anything.

It is an FS9 scenery converted to work with both FSX and P3D.

In addition, making sure it is listed at the top of scenery Library may insure a better chance.

installed again, ran it, exited a few times and it is loading fine now.

Just need to figure out the "crash" it states when I try and accelerate down the runway.

And I forgot to mention that landing wheels sink into the runway, as they have always done in previous versions of P3D.

Working now I guess.

For some reason, detect crashes was on even though I turned it off soon as I worked the settings after install.

I have a "sound" issue though as the Raptor sound is intermittently cutting out.

Read about it while looking for possible answers earlier in the day so will revisit that.

Thanks for the help, as a few restarts seem to have helped a lot.
