Featured Replies

Hi, please someone could help me please. In every airport I choose the scenery is messed up.

LYBE, LIEO, LDDU and more, the aircraft is on the air, runways look sloped Everything mess.

i did run the airport elevation correction but still the same problem. I tried many non Orbx airports but the same problem.

Check your ORBX scenery order Base OLC below your Regions and airports, then your none ORBX addons above that.

1) Transfer ALL your add-on airports ABOVE orbx sceneries. (fly tampa, aerosoft, freeware and so on....)
2) Open FTX Central and go to "settings"
3) in "library insertion point" chose the 1st option "FTX entries should be inserted below: "
4) now chose the last scenery that you have in your list ABOVE all the orbx sceneries !!.... ok?
5) the other option below that, just leave it as FTX ...... ok, now hit the save button and close your FTX Central.
6) open your simulator and go to your scenery list at once.... hit OK and let it load your new load order.

Yes, THIS is the way.
be carefull with some airports, because the have their own "landclass" (LC) files.
These files always go below their main file in the list..... for example :

1) FlyTampa Athens
2) FlyTampa
Athens_LC

My friend, exactly, that’s correct, but no luck. I uninstalled all Orbx products, completely, I reinstalled p3d client, delete p3d shaders and sceneryindexes x64 P4AO restarted p3d and unfortunately the same.

messed up scenery, planes on the air

I don’t know what to do more

any idea please?

Hi Georgios,

just a guess, but are you using the addon FSAerodata? There is a problem using this addon and P3D 4.5 HF2, which results in several elevation issues.

There is a workaround available on the forum, so if you're using it, you might give this a try... Link to FSAerodata Forum

One more suggestion, could you check your scenery.cfg file and verify that your TERRAIN is on the very bottom of it, for some unknown reasons it happened that this line would be deleted on the cfg file (or misplaced), you can add it manually and it should straightened things out.

Are you running FTX Vector?  If so, check the Airport Elevation Corrections in the Vector Configurator.  You should at the very least run the Auto Configuration for Airport Elevation Corrections.

Hi many files in there from different sceneries, not a specific TERRAIN

You do not need to edit the file.

Open the scenery library in P3D and scroll all the way to the bottom.

The last two entries should be

Default Scenery

Default Terrain

If Default Terrain is missing, create a new one, the address is scenery\world\scenery
