"Ghost" airport layout on top of addon?

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone

I am using JouJou92's excellent GMME and GMMH freeware sceneries. However, both of them are now displaying a strange issue - both of them show a sort of "ghost" two-runway airport layout with taxiways and aprons:

GMMH

GMME

The "ghost" layout has nothing to do with either airport (number of runways, orientation, layout, etc) and is exactly the same on both sceneries. And it's even stranger that I've had and used GMME for months and everything was normal until yesterday.

Anyone has any idea on what causes this and how to fix it?

Cheers

It might be the loading order.  Are they both in the community folder?  If so, try putting a Z- in front of the folder name, and this will force them to load last and be on top. For instance, Z-Rabat. 

Unfortunately you will have to quit the sim and then go back in after renaming them.

It is worth a try as, the update might have changed the MSFS database file that sets the load order.  They do look very nice on FS.to.

Call me Bob or Rob, I don't mind, but I prefer Rob.

I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

You were spot on, it worked and now they are showing correctly, thank you very much.

They look great on the sim too, this developer is doing a great job with Morocco.
