Orbx - Dark squares showing mismatched textures

Featured Replies

Hi all

I seem to have an ongoing issue with what appears to be one Orbx folder. In several areas of P3Dv5.2 + newest hotfix  I see large squares showing mismatched scenery including what appears to be night textures during the day. I have followed most recommendations from the various forums including Orbx and have been able to solve localized issues by changing the scenery priorities in my library - referring to a third party add-on for the Bahamas which now displays fine as far as I know after being placed at the top of the library. Recently I have been flying over Cuba and have found the same issue - this time without resolution. The only fix I have found so far is to disable the following Orbx folder - ORBX!OPENLC_NAMERICA1

So far I have deleted shaders, followed instructions posted on Orbx, verified every Orbx addon folder, synced Orbx with the sim and attempted to move  the Orbx Library up and down my scenery priorities - no success with any of these steps. Hoping that someone else may have experienced the same issue and found a workable fix.

I will be posting at Orbx as well but this forum is much more active in my opinion.

Thanks

Warren

Greetings. What resolves this issue for me after an update is to run the "verify files" in ORBX Central for each scenery. Takes a few hours to complete but is the sure fix for me. Hope this helps.

Hi

Thanks. I believe I have attempted both fixes but will go back and try again. Perhaps I missed something.

Hello Warren,

I had similar issues and finally solved them by installing all OpenLC and Region packages inside P3D folder instead of an external one.

Also, try running "Verify files" on ORBX Libraries.

Hi all

I ran the appropriate test for the lclookup.bgl and this may have solved the problem. I must have messed up the first time I tried this but for now everything looks good at least where I am currently flying. Not completely confident yet - I'll try some other areas but everything seems okay at this point.

Thanks to everyone

Warren
