Missing textures at FSIA

[JoseCFII]

I have not been to FSIA in a while and today noticed some black houses in p3d v4.5.

Can you help?



Thanks.
Jose

I'm surprised that no one has pointed this out with the latest installers.

This video shows that those textures were there in previous versions of the scenery:

No one else is having this issue? I tried re-installing both the P3D v3 & 4 and both have missing textures. I'm upset at myself for deleting my original installer.

BTW, Is the dev team on vacation?

I think some files corrupt. May be try to reinstall scenery. I check on my v4.5, there is fine

I've installed a few times and still have the issue. What version of the installer do you have?

I have 2.1.

[salo2k4]

Same. Do you perform clear reinstall of sim? possible some .CFG with error settings leave in system?

[JoseCFII]

I fixed the issue by removing the xml and adding the scenery manually. It seems that the xml method does not work for everyone.

congrats! do you have any airport altitude issues? i have troubles with Praslin when i went from FSIA. Some objects, grass merged to ground couple meters down, but visible from underground. (but if load Praslin firstly - looks ok) Developer can't help.

I'll check this out and get back to you asap. In the mean time look for some alt fixes that were available for download on this forum.

I'm going to do some further testing of the installer to see why the xml method is not working on my system. I have no issues with any other scenery.

So that we are on the same page, be sure that you are using v 2.1

The texture for those buildings is "SEY_EdenIsland.dds". It should be in the FSDG-Seychelles/texture folder.

[salo2k4]

how i can be sure which version is installed? When start install i see just V2 and don't know V2.0 or V2.1

[horst18519]

The name of the installer includes the version number. All versions should include the texture though.

OK Thorsten. How i can get LATEST version of Seychelles? I'm not sure that my up-to-date

[JoseCFII]

I can confirm that flying from FSIA to FSPP when you arrive there is an elevation issue.

You can download the latest from the store you bought it.
But, this issue is not an installer issue because I have the latest. It's the FSPP AFCAD or the scenery itself.

Try this. Set your mesh to 5. Load FSIA then fly to FSPP. Land at FSPP and when you see the elevation problem change mesh to 1.

You will see that FSPP loads normally when you switch the mesh setting. I have a feeling that this mesh bug is the same one that causes flying houses in ORBX Regions.

Don't know of any solution, but at least I found the culprit. Maybe changing the mesh setting a couple of miles away from the airport could be a work around.

i know, that after mesh resolution change FSPP gets normal, but with every scenery loading issue back. I love Seychelles very much but due to this issue I prefer French Polinesia more often
