Hello,

I recently bought the Sumburgh airport scenery for P3Dv5 at Orbx website. The scenery itself works well, however there is a large patch of default terrain next to the island in the sea. (See the screenshot:)

Now, I understand that on the website it says that it "needs" either EU Scotland or TrueEarth Great Britain North as prerequisite products (none of which I have), but I have ORBX Edinburgh, which also "needs" EU Scotland, but I have no issues with that scenery.

Any ideas? Can someone confirm that this works (or doesn't) without EU Scotland?

Oh and I forgot to add: I did reinstall it many times, installed it in a different way, verified the files many times and played around with the config settings, none of these helped.

The Prerequisites for this airport say “You require at least one of the following products to use EGPB Sumburgh Airport.”

So I suspect that the problem will persist until on of those is installed. The GB Earth series are worth having. I know it’s a nuisance when you need to buy extra scenery to resolve these problems but ORBX does tend to do that.

The author’s names are listed so a post on the ORBX forum might help. I suspect it’s the coastlines that cause the issue.

I assumed it was because of that. I have almost 40 sceneries from ORBX and a lot of them has "prerequisite" products listed (usually OpenLC and things like that) but this is the first time I actually encounter a problem caused by the lack of these... Interesting.

Another vote for Orbx TE, exceptional scenery.  

But yes, sometimes Orbx seem to be more about sales that an actual requirement, but sometimes it is an actual requirement in order to look correct.

I've seen something similar like your scenery glitch before and I solved it by verifying the files for the airport/scenery in ORBX Central, and then verifying the ORBX Libraries. I have EGPB up and running in P3Dv4 without EU Scotland or TrueEarth Great Britain.

I tried and this didn't help

Then I'm out of ideas. I hope you'll figure it out.
