Bogus Autogen Shadow Fix for DX10

[martin[flytampa]]

This default building (also present without our Addon) renders broken shadow lines since FSX-SP2.

Copy the attached Exclude file into /FSX/Addon Scenery/FlyTampa-Maarten/scenery/ to get rid of it.

Hi

Will this fix the dolphin shadow problem too? That's the only issue I have with the scenery - otherwise it is FANTASTIC!

Unfortunately not. I think the dolphins' shadow problem happens only under SP2-DX10 Mode when "Ground Scenery Shadow" is enabled. Options are to disable this under Display Settings or to remove the the dolphins completely by deleting "_maarten_animals.BGL".

Quick question, Martin/George: I purchased the full version yesterday evening, and am very happy with it - Thank you - and expecting it may have DX10 issues, as you have pointed out in various places. I briefly tested it this morning, and certainly what is known as "the pink wall" was apparent, and I now have the fix for it. The post I am currently reading is referring to 'broken shadows', and there's a reference to Dolphin shadow issue as well. Is this fix here included in the latest download, or will I have to install this fix manually from this post? Which, of course, leads to - are there other fixes for DX10 available for other - unknown to me - issues?

Many Thanks,

Long-time supporter,

Hi!
I installed the papi light fix, and the runway corrections yesterday, and after I started to see the above mentioned building bug, although I also have a maarteen_excl_fsx_simple.bgl file where its supposed to be.
I never used the DX10 preview option, and its unchecked.

Any ideas?

Thanks

PS: OOps, after refreshing the scenery library it disappeared, sorry for the false alarm:)
