Manathan buildings during approach at KLGA

Featured Replies

Hi,

I would like to ask fellow simmers if they are seeing any Manathan buildings during ILS approach 22 at KLGA. I can’t see any apart one which must be a POI therefore appearing well before the others. I can see the buildings when on the ground though because I guess I entered the radius in short final maybe.

I am running TLOD 100 with no photogrammetry.

I would be glad if you let me know your experience at KLGA regarding this.

You mean Manhattan, I suppose. I use photogrammetry, so yes i do see them. You won't see any custom buildings without photogrammetry, except POIs, as you figured out yourself.

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

Hi,

Sorry for the typo, yes of course I mean Manhattan 😅

I was thinking of default buildings because I do not use photogrammetry.

You probably will not see the buildings unless you turn up your LOD.  The AI buildings use the 'Object LOD' setting and not the 'Terrain LOD' that PG buildings use..  You might want to try increasing that setting but you might have to set it up around 200.

There are two New York City building add-ons, one free, and one payware if I recall correctly. They both have a very large view distance, easily seen from either JFK or LaGuardia, even with lower settings.

I’ve been flying in and out of KLGA the last few days and see the city from at least 25 miles out. Photogrammetry on TLOD 250.

Pierre
