May 12, 20242 yr Commercial Member Hey All, Has anyone else seen an issue with this scenery? All of a sudden I am now facing sudden hills and craters on the taxiways (so steep the aircraft can get stuck!). I have reinstalled but to no avail. Also turned up the mesh resolution as far as it will go... but still huge issues. Any advice would be most appreciated, many thanks Jane - Jane Whittaker

Photogrammetry setting is in MSFS options under "Data". Rhett 7800X3D ♣ 96 GB G.Skill Flare ♣ Gigabyte 4090 ♣ Crucial P5 Plus 2TB

May 13, 20242 yr I've not seen that issue. The only thing I have noticed is runway 23R threshold is quite steep but not anything like you describe. I'm on SU15 beta with photogrammetry off.

I have Maccosim Manchester v2.1.5, and just checked this morning. I don't have the hills/craters so it must be something closer to you. Any recent changes?
May 13, 20242 yr You could remove all scenery addons and just keep the Maccosim Manchester. If that solves the issue, it might be another airport, or the Orbx UK Mesh if you have purchased that. You do have the WU for the British Isles installed?

Just for info as I don’t have MSFS but live close to EGCC is you should be aware the 05L end of that runway is 37ft lower than the 23R end. To add to the complexity there is a hump approximately 1/3 of the way along from the 23R end. Pilots who haven’t landed there before can be caught out. So the slope from the hump can be considerable. 😁 If all this is modelled in any Manchester scenery it’s an excellent depiction. Ray (Cheshire, England).

May 13, 20242 yr Interesting, Ray. Your description seems to represent what I see on approach to 23R, the end of the runway up to the numbers is quite steep then starts to flatten to the touch down markers. (Steep, but not unrealisticly steep) I aim for just beyond the touchdown markers to avoid too high a landing rate Stu Edited May 13, 20242 yr by Bunchy i7 12700K , DDR4 64GB RAM @3600MHz, Asus Z690-Plus D4 MB, Gainward 4090 RTX Graphics, 850W Corsair PSU, Kraken AIO watercooler, Nvme 1TB ssd, 1TB ssd, 500GB ssd.
May 13, 20242 yr They ought to make that area a displaced threshold. Rhett 7800X3D ♣ 96 GB G.Skill Flare ♣ Gigabyte 4090 ♣ Crucial P5 Plus 2TB

I just remember back in 2000 sitting in the jump seat of a BA757 from Gatwick when the captain warned the 1st Officer about the hump and to make sure he touched down before it otherwise the slope thereafter could prove troublesome.
