VHHX bumpy runway issue

Hi guys. I had Kai Tak for years and now im starting to get tired of this bumpy runway involving only the thresholds of runway 31 and 13. Is there a way to fix that?

Sorry the late reply. One way is to edit the "Afcad". We use the free ADE for that (airport design editor) and change the runway surface for example to Asphalt or Concrete. This smoothens it, but also changes the visual appearance slightly.
The Afcad file is named: AF?_OMDB_????.bgl. Depending on fs9 or fsx and whatever you installed FSX in SDK mode or non sdk the file name varies slightly.

I have AFCAD installed. I dont like the new editor. This is the only one for me. Now i tried making a concrete apron underneath but i still get the same problem. Also another problem is with the RAM. FS9 uses up so much ram til i get "virtual memory run out" or something.... Anyways, if you need a video of it, i put it on my youtube channel.

Does you installer end with 10.exe or 11.exe? You may need to install the 1.1 Update from here to fix the memory leak: http://flytampa.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=3213

Afcad is fine. You should however not create a new apron, just double click the existing ones and more importantly the runway and set surface to conc or asph.

I get the update and install it and 3 red colums the size of sky scrapers (3 of them) appear on the runway after i load FS. You guys use bitumas for a surface???!!! I found that out in afcad. No wonder i was having a bumpy runway. Same problem at Boston V3 until i changed it myself. What files cause the memory leak? If i can just fix those without the red colums being there id be happy.

What is your order number & email address used for your Hong kong & Boston orders?
We can't help you further without those.

You need a legal installer for the scenery to update & function correctly. If you have lost the installer, please contact support@flytampa.com with the details listed above & request a replacement.
