My install question

Post by DARENSW1 » Fri Jul 04, 2008 10:30 am

Two questions, first one I think I know the answer.

The runway does not have any texture nor does the taxiways, (I assume its my graphics card???

Also when you do the IG approach, we fly to 2.2 DME and then turn, in this scenery it makes you cut the corner? is the DME giving out the right reading? to get in the right place for the turn I have to go down to 1 dme... is there an include file missing?

Many thanks

Are you talking about the FSX ( DX 10 or DX 9 ? ) or FS9 version ?
What are your system specs ?

In regards to the DME question, not sure it matters about the system.

But the graphic wise

Dual core 266
2 GB ram
GeForce 8800 GTX

And FS9

Does that help ?

Have you looked at the chart included in the pdf ?
It shows you turning just past vhhh, the outer marker is more than 2.2 miles from the IGS. Like I said, this stuff is not my forte so forgive me if I'm asking stupid questions or I just don't get it.
Are you saying the DME shows 2.2 miles when you are over VHHH ?

Did you try running the intaller again ?
Do or did you have 9 dragons installed ?
Could you post a screenshot of what it looks like ?

I may be wrong, on this, but from the chart, it looks like you turn right at 2.2, thats also the MAP, now that worked on my old scenery, but this on it does not, maybe I am wrong and its tottaly visual, after 2.2 ???

From the chart for missed approach " the right turn must me made at MM ( 2.2 Nm from KL DME if MM is unserviceable )" so I think the 2.2 is for missed if the MM is not working.
The approach is all visual once you hit the MM.

Can't help you on the triple head texture thing, maybe it's some driver issue.
