[FSX] Surrounding area textures problem

[mcnobody]

Hello.

First of all thanks to FlyTampa for a great scenery. Unfortunately I have one major issue with the scenery addon since the latest update, see the attached image of the sim's bird's eye view:

The area around the airport is shown perfectly in Flight Simulator X and runs totally smooth on my system. The coastlines, buidlings etc, show up perfectly, even the ground textures. The hinterland looks totally different, there are serveral different looking squares which don't fit into the scenery and getting closer to these areas the textures need a while to load and still show errors.

Since I've made a few changes to my graphic settings before the release of update 2.1 I can't 100 % confirm the issue is related to version 2.1 but I don't have such an issue at any other airport and I have no other scenery problems.

On a side; I don't have any other scenerie addons installed in the area around the African continent... .

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Christian

Just a little information on my problem. It still exists when I deactivate the scenery in the scenery library, completely uninstall the scenery and after reinstalling the scenery without and with update 2.1.

The only difference is that the texure parts shown are different. Not changes even when going back to the default fsx.cfg .

I am really confused now, I haven't done any other changes since installing the update for Dubai...

I haven't seen anything like this. When you uninstall Dubai completely, is the whole area fixed? It seems things are messing up way beyond our scenery coverage. Not sure if the random part means anything, normally random problems hint at overheating hardware.

I had a similar issue but this was over Sharm in Egypt. I have the FSDG HESH Scenery but had issues with textures similar to yours. Do you have Orbx England? I have Flytampa Dubai for FSX aswell but have had no issues with it like you show in the pic but because the screen you posted is similar to what i had at HESH i must ask first if you use ORBX England.

Thanks for your input Martin and Bradley.

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Dubai Rebooted (step by step) but unfortunately I wasn't able to solve the issue. I've also tried deactivating scenery by scenery.

I've opted for a complete reinstallation of Flight Simulator X now and installed Dubai in the last place, so far everything seems to be back to basics, no issues regarding scnery or landscape at all.

I still have no idea what caused the problem maybe a generic landscape file got damaged in a way. But I have no idea in which scenery folder the files for the UAE are placed so...

Anyway, thanks for your support guys!

I have the exact same problem with my scenery, and i can confirm i have Orbx England, please help

I do not know how to help you. At this point I have to assume this is something with Orbx Eng by itself rather then a conflict between the two.... Because our Dubai does not place or modify any files outside its' own folder, except for FSX/effects/.

Oh yes that is what FTX England does to textures around the world, their forums are full of it, so is my scenery, they should have a fix for it in the service pack, it due for release in the next week.

If you deactivate FTX England and go back to default, the problem will go away.

This is currently my view on departing Sharm

Please be aware that there is a SP1 pack for Orbx England out now on their site. This seemed to fix those problems for me....there are still a various few bugs still not addressed by Orbx within England itself but everything outside SHOULD in theory be back to normal with the installation of the new SP1

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, was this definitely found to be Orbx UK? I'm having these issues too and i uninstalled Orbx UK and i still have the problem, going to try a few tests by installing it again and seeing how things change.
