I am very sorry to read that. He was a legend, he and the NL2000 team.

I am very happy with EHAM.  The KLM ground equipment the KLM vans all the little local touches are what separate top tier deveolpers from mid tier developers.

FlyTampa is not to blame for the canals.

Unless you have worked with the SDK before you wouldn't understand that water masks and thier exclusions have a mind of their own and cause issues with terrain.  The problem really gets bad the smaller the water mask is.   I have mod where I fixed a bunch of canals in Southern Arizona along the CAP and in the SDK editor it looked pretty good but when I actually flew over it in the simulator it loaded in the exact same way as at EHAM.  It has something to do with LOD, terrain elevation and watermask width and what simulator prioritizes for display.   The autoflatten/smoothing feature of the masks will always cause this issue when viewed at a distance.  

The only thing they could do is get rid of the watermasks entirely or make them smaller but then you'll get areas where the water dissapears entirely, its a fine balance.

This is also why default scenery uses excessively large water masks for smaller streams.  If they made them smaller they would get swallowed up by the terrain or may not display at all.

To make Schiphol a little bit more alive several mods for the Premium de Luxe version also work with FT EHAM :

I did rename the mods names to z- ….  to be sure they loaded on top of EHAM.

Are you sure that you have all needed folders ?

Here how it looks on my systems using AddonsLinker. Without AddonsLinker you place the folders directly inside the Community folder.

nope, not here

The update is great. There seems to be an uplift in performance too. Keep it up FT!

I will just address you guys for Flytampa doesnt give me an account. Concerns FT EHAM MSFS. Double Jetways. See picture.

What did I do? First in GSX I disabled 3rd party Jetways.. Does not work. Then all Jetways disabled. Neither. In the meanwhile of course I restarted msfs and removed the rolling cache. No avail. Then uninstalled addon AP Jetways Pro. Nothing. Uninstalled default Asobo eham scenery. Nope. No combination works. Asobo's default jetways keep on appearing on top of the eham jetways (you know those fine orange ones with ING on it ;-)).

It really annoys me cause for years on end now Eham is my preferred hub to take off from.

It would make perfect sense to post this at Flytampa's but I just can't get an account there. No activation mail nothing, nor in my spam box. I think their accessebility is not ok. Not very accessesable. Sure they'll be prepared to answer questions but then I need this account of course.

Is it a possibility that 1 of you guys with an FT account can drop this issue at Flytampa? Would be great! Ah well I wil keep trying. See you later.

You should create à second community folder with only ft eham, neutralize the main community on community.old or what you want and try if problem is here
