KMDW - Correct textures?

Post by airforce806 » Thu Nov 05, 2015 7:33 pm

Thank you for the new installers! All of my FlyTampa scenery installed perfectly. Quick question on KMDW..are these runway textures correct? Thank you in advance!

Based on a Google Earth quick look, it resembles the present runways but may be a bit dark compared to the real thing. That doesn't bother be much, but there is some really bad runway flickering on approach above 1,200 ft. AGL. I installed four FT airports today and they all work great except Midway. I hope that runway flickering can be handled in a hot fix of some sort.

As a follow up to yesterday's post, is anyone else experiencing the flickering runway textures above 1,200 ft?

When working on the latest MDW update, some runways and taxiways were being resurfaced, so we made those areas darker asphalt.

Some flickering at higher altitude will be normal with all updates where we changed the ground shaders

I just wanted to verify that this was in fact the correct texturing from a lower altitude.

Thank again.

Looks correct. On maps.bing.com you can see the dark asphalt the current version is based on.
