Not having set the Mesh Resolution/Complexity sliders as indicated on the KIAH manual.

If you set them *higher*, there will be artifacts too, because they are a result of rounding errors by FSX, when an airport tries to flatten a too high resolution 3rd party mesh underneath.

Problem Solved........

Thanks Umberto. The solution for this problem was my setting has always been on max resolution of 1. I wonder why I did not notice this on any of my other airport scenery?

One other question. When I look at my FSX.cfg file, why does it show MESH_RESOLUTION=23 and while looking at my FSX Settings - Display/Scenery drop down menu it is set to 5? Just curious


Portion of FSX.CFG file:
[TERRAIN]
AUTOGEN_DENSITY=5
DETAIL_TEXTURE=1
LOD_RADIUS=4.500000
MESH_COMPLEXITY=100
MESH_RESOLUTION=23
SWAP_WAIT_TIMEOUT=2
TEXTURE_RESOLUTION=29
WATER_EFFECTS=6
TERRAIN_MAX_AUTOGEN_TREES_PER_CELL=4500
TERRAIN_MAX_AUTOGEN_BUILDINGS_PER_CELL=3000

Thanks

It's just a different unit of measure.
