To all,
I just bought the Seychelles scenery package a few days ago. Runway surface at FSSD is transparent and approx 9 meters above
the airport surface elevation. Please see image below. Can you suggest an easy fix for this ?
Thank you,
Ken Boardman

Do you use other addons that might include airport data for FSSD?

Thank you for the fast reply.
No other FSSD related add-ons. Only FS Global and Orbx (as mentioned earlier).
I was able to fix this by setting the airport elevation to .3' using ADE; but I've found
two other airports in the Seychelles package that need runway help also >>
FSAL runway appears (or not ~:) above the FSX stock FSAL ground elevation level.
FSMA runway appears below the stock airport ground elevation.
Any suggestions for a fix for these two airport runways will be appreciated. In
mean time I'll use ADE to attempt to correct them.
BTW, The birds grass and other details of the Seychelles package are awesome
and tremendously enhance the realism.
Regards, Ken

FSAL

FSMA_1 (with Seychelles scenery enabled) FSMA_2 (with Seychelles scenery disabled)

Did you download the latest version? (v3.0)
There should be none of the above issues with the latest version of the scenery.
Can you please check if there are (additional) ALT files for those airports in the scenery/world/scenery folder? (apart from our own files)

Hi Thorsten,
I bought version 3 from Aerosoft Store. And there are no additional files for those airports.
Only files for those airports are the FSX defaults, and the Seychelles package installed files.
Good news is that I was able to correct the issues at FSAL and FSMA with some ADE exclusion
polygons. Also had to move the airport / runway a bit for FSMA (Rw 17 end) because it was
extended beyond the island > about 1/3 of it was in the Indian Ocean. Some screen caps
of the airport fixes are below.
Overall I am very happy with the package.
Regards,
Ken

Hello. I have little problems with FSSD too. No any other scenery or mech used. Setup: P3D_v4.5, FSDG-Seychelles_v3.0_P3Dv4v5, Windows 10 x64

We had previously included a quick fix for some elevation problems. There's a chance that additional file is still present.
We have updated the scenery to v3.1 to make sure FSSD and FSAL have correct elevations. Our partner shops should update their downloads within 24 hours.
FSMA does not have an official runway, only a start point. It's supposed to be "bumpy".

Thank you for the follow-up Thorsten. Seychelles is all great here now.
My order was from Fiightsim,com on Feb 23, 2022 and it appears to
be Ver 3.0 (fyi). I will try to find ver 3.1 in case I must reinstall it
sometime in the future. Do you have any suggestions on easiest
way to get it ?Best regards,
Ken

If they don't have the new version by monday, please send us an email.
