Hi all, I'm putting my question here after a try opening two ticket to ChasePlane Support. Mr. Edson C. Soriano says that there is a problem on my side (and I'm aware of it) and all the support they can give is to say "there's a problem on your side". As they should know how the product works I expect them to at least say "try this, check that ...". Instead none of this. I am really disappointed with the quality of the support provided. So here is the problem: I'm on P3D v4.5 HF 3 and last version of ChasePlane (v.1.2.58). I would like to use the static cameras generated automatically by ChasePlane in the airports in order to have the views from the runway starts so I regenerated the airport data then opened P3D. I have chosen a default airport (LIML) and after loading the sim a view of a lake or sea appears on the monitor that has nothing to do with the airport. So, after opening a ticket to //42 support (including the Report File) and received a no help response, I did other tests by randomly taking some default airports around the world (RUCN, LIRN, KPHL, KMEM, ZSPD, RJNK). Before the test I regenerated the airport data in ChasePlane. In all airports the behavior is the same: the static cameras always show a place in the middle of a lake or sea. Since I think the program works (and once it worked for me too) I thought that the problem may be due to something corrupt in the ChasePlane installation so within Orbx Central I checked ChasePlane's files. So I redid the tests but without success. I would like to point out that I activate P3D and Chaseplane too in Administrator mode, the installation folder is C:\Program Files\Parallel 42\ChasePlane (drive C is on a M2 SSD) and that I have set the exclusion on Windows Defender for ChasePlane.exe and C:\Users\<MyUser>\AppData\Roaming\Parallel 42\ChasePlane\ChasePlane_Bridge.exe. P3D is installed in a separate M2 SSD. Also airports data are re-generated after the regeneration. Finally I tried to regenerate the cameras.cfg file getting only the change of view (it looks like a Norwegian fjord). Has anyone had this problem and was able to identify and fix it? Thanks a lot to anyone who wants to help me. Alessandro

This sixth and final leg of my journey brings me back to where it all started: Gibraltar. We depart from our last stop Decimomannu on Sardinia, Italy and fly north via Corsica, France to the Ligurian coast of Italy and the large port city Genoa. From there we head west to reach the French Riviera. Over Marseille, we turn south towards the Spanish Balearic Islands, before we finally reach again Gibraltar. Over Porto Cervo at the north-eastern corner of Sardinia. Created by Prince Karim Aga Khan and various other investors in the 1950s, Porto Cervo has developed into the main center of Sardinia’s "Costa Smeralda". It has a resident population of just 421 inhabitants and has been named one of the most expensive resorts in the world, along as being a luxury yacht magnet and billionaires' playground. In the distance you can see the next island, French “Corsica” Cruising along Corsica’s east coast. A single chain of mountains, which go as high as 2,700 m (8,870 ft), makes up two-thirds of the island. Btw, Napoleon Bonaparte was born in 1769 in the Corsican capital of Ajaccio. We have reached the Italian coastline and fly here over Genoa. It is the capital of the Italian region of Liguria and is with some 600,000 people the sixth-largest city in Italy. Flying along the Italian (and later French) Riviera offers some spectacular views of this beautiful (and populated) area. No wonder it is a sought-after vacation spot for many Europeans. Here we are over Sanremo (or San Remo), founded by the Romans over 2,000 years ago By now we have left Italy and have reached famous Monaco. While the Italian photoscenery (with its own autogen) is freeware, here starts now the payware scenery from France VFR with a dense and superb autogen. Not all, but most of the buildings are generic, but (I have been here often) they do fit the region very well. The scenery is excellent, but comes with one caveat: depending on your settings, it can be heavy on your frames This is not Aerosoft Monaco, but the autogen from France VFR Above Nice, it offers the airport closest to Monaco The (in)famous and huge “Marina Baie des Anges” (Bay of Angels) was highly criticized during its construction in the late 1960s, early 1970s. But today it is regarded as an important landmark Over Antibes. In the distance you can see the airport of Nice and in-between the Marina Baie des Anges Close by is Cannes. We fly over the island “Sainte Marguerite”, which houses not only a nice old church, but also a large, modern maritime museum. However, being on an island, it can only be reached by boat. The museum buildings are again generic, the real ones are smaller The next city, and as famous as Monaco, is St. Tropez. Should you belong to the reach and famous and want to berth your mega yacht during summer inside the harbor, so that the paparazzi have a better view of you and your loved ones, I have bad news for you: the waiting list is endless Our last “port of call” on the French coast is Marseille; with a population of around 850,000 it is the second largest city of France. Never allowed in real life, here we have a low pass next to the “Notre-Dame de la Garde” (Lady of the Guard). It was built on the foundations of an ancient fort at the highest natural point in Marseille, a 149 m (489 ft) limestone outcropping on the south side of the Old Port of Marseille. The basilica is famous for its “Black Madonna” Now we turn south for the Spanish Balearic islands The smallest and most northern of the three islands is “Menorca” Over the second and largest island “Mallorca”. It is also the most mountainous of the three islands. Due to its many beaches and modest accommodations, it is a highly popular destination for British and German tourists But the island offers also some spectacular mountain hikes In the background you can see Mallorca’s capital “Palma de Mallorca” On final for Gibraltar. Here ends our flight around the Mediterranean Sea. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did I feel almost sad that it ends here. But then…in the distance we can spot the most northern tip of the African continent. Hmmmh…

P3D v.4 NZ in photoscenery, part 2: South Island
bernd1151 posted a topic in The AVSIM Screen Shots Forum
We depart from Dunedin on the east coast and head south until we reach the southern tip of the island. From there we fly north-west towards Queenstown and then it’s on to Mount Cook. The plane is the freeware Restauravia Fouga Magister. This flight was done in the new P3D v4.4 and as before all weather has been switched off for more clarity Parked at Dunedin Intern. By now we have reached the southern part and are here over the Awarua Bay and Tiwai Point with Stewart Island in the distance On the west coast near Resolution Island. Here it becomes obvious that this freeware has a few watermasking issues. But I’m not really complaining, it’s free! Over the Fjordland Nat. Park Part of Lake Te Anau lies behind us on our way to Queenstown Over Lake Wakatipu with Glenorchy in the background Approaching Queenstown, here are some more watermasking issues visible I like the way the scenery is being mirrored in the water Queenstown with the ORBX airport and The Remarkables mountain range. It is not so obvious in these smaller pictures, but the clarity and sharpness of the scenery even in the distance is in v4.4 even better than in 4.3. You just look at your computer screen and say: WOW! Further north near Mount Edward and Mount Aspiring Mount Cook is dead ahead Thanks for viewing
