EGOV issue


Recommended Posts

I have a problem with EGOV - RAF Valley in P3D v4.3. Some of my taxiways are not showing up  

Here is the scenery file in ADE:

All the taxiways are in place, in fact it is nice and detailed.

Below is how it appears in the sim:

As you can see there are big bits missing.

A closer look below shows that it is just the runway textures and not the details that are missing.

I use ORBX wales and vectors but no addon EGOV scenery.

Can anyone help with this problem?

I think it also happens with other default scenery.

I have tried running the ORBX vector tool but no change.

I've had this issue.

Unfortunately, I cannot recall the fix. Of all the things I've lost I miss my memory the most.

It has to do with the airport overlay being (basically) flat and the underlying (default) terrain hilly.

Not sure if this will help John but as you have run the Vector tool, try this.  Just in case the airport is misbehaving:-

See if the offending airport's elevation .bgl is listed in the Scenery\World\Scenery folder.  If it is,
 add ".off" to the file name.

Has to be worth a try.

It might not necessarily be a ORBX issue.

This can occur in P3Dv4 if the original scenery uses "old" FS9 code.  It is fixable but only by creating your own .bgl using methods agreeable to P3Dv4.

If you have a copy of FSX try the scenery in that.  Very likely it will work just fine.

Thanks for the replies folks.

EGOV is not listed in the Scenery\World\Scenery folder so that's a non starter, and I no longer have FSX so that fix is a no for me.

The only thing that strikes me is that it looks like there might be some scenery in the stack that is in the wrong order. To me it looks like there is a simple 'airport over the top of a more detailed one. it looks like the runways have a surrounding texture that are on top of the rest of the scenery.

Does this jog any memories?

Thanks guys. If you can't solve the problem them find a way around it. At the Cosford show l was chatting to the guys at vRAF who showed me their freeware Raf Valley for P3D v4.x. Installing it proved a solution to my issue and has given me a far better Raf Valley. Job done!

Some screen shots of my new EGOV Valley.

This is MSPG's freeware EGOV and Military AI's P3D v4..x Matrix AI installer.

With Matrix AI:

Note that the AI aircraft are all different as shown by the tail munbers

AI traffic at EGOV.  The first aircraft is performing a go around, the second a landing and the third a touch and go.

Highly recommended.  They have Lossiemouth and Brize Norton in the pipeline as well.

I didn't see anyone at the show I knew except Jess who was too busy to interrupt.  I guess you all saw me first!

You mist have missed me too.. I was there with Joe and Needles.

Funnily enough I did see someone from afar that I thought might be you.. with a younger chap, but they showed no spark of recognition so I guess it wasn't you..

Next year perhaps

Sorry to have missed you and your son. Eat a few more carrots next time before the show :P
