KLAX Scenery Loading Issues
« on: September 13, 2014, 04:34:16 pm »
Hello,

I decided to go out and buy this product to do Orlando - Los Angeles routes.

I am having the following issues:

-Depending on camera position, airbridges (jetways) won't show.
-Depending on camera position, airbridges show, but ground markings don't.
-Depending on camera position, both airbridges and ground markings show, but the airbridge 'elevation wheels' don't.
-Other scenery objects, including airport road vehicles, suddenly spawned right in front of me during taxi.

I have attached raw screenshots to show you what I mean. (This was only really a test flight to start with, but hopefully this issue can be solved for future video's.)

I am having the following issues:

None of the issues you are having are problems of the scenery, and they are entirely normal.

Your screenshots show you are using a very wide zoom setting, and the scenery is heavily optimized for LOD (which is why it doesn't slow down your system to a crawl), and LOD, depending on your screen resolution AND zoom settings, will have less-detailed version of the object to appear.

The scenery has been designed to be used at a zoom level from 0.50 to 0.70, because this is what is considered to be the more realistic setting. If we allowed to use any zoom settings, there would be a visible impact on fps.

In addition to the zoom setting issue, you can control the loading range of smaller objects, using the "Anti pop-up" slider in the Addon Manager. The more you move the slider to the right, the less pop-ups you'll have, but more memory will be used and possibly an fps loss. That's your choice.

So it's common even in the VC?

Thanks for the immediate reply and suggestions.

Yes, if you use such wide zoom settings of 0.30, as shown in your screenshot.
