Black Boxes
I am getting little black boxes with gate numbers on them floating over both sides of the runway. I have the FSX payware version.

Re: Black Boxes
I'll see if we can re-enable the attach feature. We had to disable it for security reasons but i think it'll be okay to bring it back now.
Are these large boxes (over 100m) or pretty small?
Try re-installing the scenery for now.

Re: Black Boxes
Wait a minute; do you mean black boxes like these?

If so, those are runway distance signs. A number '3' would mean you have 3000ft of runway remaining from the sign.

Re: Black Boxes
They are about the same size as you show but they are floating about 10-20 ft above the runway. I found a My Traffic Afcad and have removed it frm FSX. I will let you know what happens.
Re: Black Boxes
OK, I removed the MY Traffic AFCAD and I still have the "distance signs" showing up 10-20 ft in the air on the outer run ways.The inner runway(closest to the terminals) has the signs where they should be on the edge of the runway . Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated.phenocom wrote:They are about the same size as you show but they are floating about 10-20 ft above the runway.

Re: Black Boxes
Check you have a file called 'AFX_KBOS_flytampa_dummy.bgl' installed in FSX\Scenery\World\Scenery
I just checked my version & all the signs are in the right position. You'll probably see other floating objects too?
It does sound like you still have another afcad running or an older Boston scenery. Prehaps the freeware one?

Re: Black Boxes
I do have 'AFX_KBOS_flytampa_dummy.bgl' installed in my scenery world scenery folder. I can find no other afcads for KBOS. I checked for any other KBOS programs such as the older boston scenery. The freeware one would not work in FSX so I deleted it quite awhile ago.

Should I try uninstalling and reinstalling the scenery?

Worth a try.
Is it just floating black signs? AI planes & terminals at the correct level?

I have solved the problem!! It was Megascenery Earth.!!!
When I reinstalled the program it placed KBOS in a position which was higher (lower number) than Megascenery Earth Massachusetts!!!
