January 7Jan 7 I really need some help here. I am having a problem that is driving me crazy and I just cannot figure out how to fix it. I use Orbx scenery including Base, Vectors, openLC packages and airports. The problem is that I installed some new airports that I just bought and suddenly when I start a flight, all of the ground textures and road textures seem to be underneath the mesh layer. I've gone over my scenery library order and everything is in the order it is supposed to be. I asked an AI chatbot for help and it suggested deleting the terrian.cfg and replacing it with a new one and then using the Sync Simulator option in Orbx Central but this did not help. I've tried searching this problem on the internet but found nothing helpful. I am really stuck here and at my wits end, I do not know what else to try. I would even be willing to pay someone to help me fix this problem if I am not able to figure out a solution. I would greatly appreciate any help anyone can provide. Thank you Here's an image of what I am seeing: Edited January 7Jan 7 by Zylx Specs: MSI X470 Gaming Pro Carbon board, Ryzen 5800X CPU, 3600Mhz Corsair RAM, Sapphire Nitro+ RX 6900 XT GPU Favorite Sims: FSX:SE, P3Dv5.4, X-Plane 11 & 12

Is this problem just adjacent to the new airports you added or does it seem to be everywhere in FSX? Bill

Bill The airports I installed were Orbx airports that were installed through Central. I have a funny feeling that Central may be causing the problem but I could be wrong.

I have almost all the available Orbx products for FSX but they were installed using the now defunct FTXCentral and I never migrated on to Orbx Central as, when it was first released, FSX users reported some issues and I didn't want to risk messing up a nicely functioning FSX. So I'm afraid I can't help you with Central, although it might be worth posting your query on the relevant forum on the Orbx website, assuming they haven't washed their hands of FSX support!.

January 10Jan 10 Terrain conflicts are not uncommon even in default installations. There's an airport I'd like to frequent - YNBR, but I can't because it's underground. I can land there and take off but the approach is difficult because I can't see the runway. Mike Beckwith

Bill Central sucks, I absolutely hate having to use it. I always seem to have one problem or another because of Central not working right.
