Strangely no those files have made no difference for me.

Martin kindly sent the YYZ files earlier to test and I'm happy to report they worked perfectly, no side effects at all on my system.
No change sadly at YUL, still an exclusion at the South end and one I forgot to mention at the North end.

Okay try downloading files again. I've updated them. Let me know if you have any luck please.
Bingo! That's a winner. Can't see any side effects either, everything else looks spot on.
Thank you guys, as always best support in the business!

I also do have these crashes at Vienna/LOWW at night :|
Yes, I know that there´s a workaround by disabling the grass bgls but a fix for this would be highly appreciated.

Cheers,

Had also this crashes at loww at night, nearly driven me crazy as i couldn't point it down to the "grass" error.

Any timeline for a fix?

After installing Prepar3d v4 hotfix 1 the Apron Halo FXs are spotting in the wrong direction (180 degrees).

Can you redownload and run the Libraries installer again from here:
http://www.flytampa.org/dwl/FlyTampa_Co ... SX_P3D.exe

Then let me know if the floodlight halos are still inverted

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. I installed amsterdam as instructed and when I try to go there p3d v4 crashes. I am able to load at any other addon airports without issue. I uninstalled amsterdam thinking it was the issue and p3d loaded normally. I installed copenhagen and had the same issue. Uninstalled and no more ctd. It must be something I'm doing, because I don't see this topic anywhere else.

You installed using the Installer & then applied the patch? Or the un-patched airport is crashing too?

I installed EKCH 1.4 into p3d v4 hotfix 1 by pointing the installer to the p3d v4 folder. I then overwrote with new patch files. I then deleted the papi files as instructed. I then open p3d v4 and selected ekch and the get a ctd. the flytampa libraries, ekch, ekch LC all show in the scenery library.

I installed EKCH into P3D v4. I noticed panning to the city in the cockpit or outside the frames drop like crazy. from 45-50 fps in the TFDI 717. when looking at the city at the gate it drops to 15-18 fps.

I changed to airliner mode and removed 3d grass etc still frames are really low. in P3D v3 I did not have this issue.

anyone else having this issue?
