Missing terminal buildings
AdamAllTimeLOw:
Hi everyone,
I have just bought my new system which consists of: Intel Core i7 6700k o/c 4.6GHz, Asus Z170 Deluxe motherboard, 32gb DDR4 3000mhz Ram, Nvidia GTX 1080, and other bits and bobs. I have re installed all of my purchased FSTD products which are KLAS, KLAX, PHNL, KJFKv2 and GSX and also the latest addon manager.
I have ran into problems with all the above airports (please note I also have flytampa airports and UK2000 which work fine and have no problems) For some reason, when I am at either of the above airports, some of the buildings are missing such as terminals. Whenever I get really close to the missing buildings, they then re-appear..... I have read pretty much all other forums relating to this type of issue with no luck and I have excluded my whole FSX folder from being scanned with my anti virus. I have tried all new fresh installs of everything and can confirm I have both the Addon Manager and Coutal.
I think I ran into this problem once before and after messaging the support team, I was able to fix it. However, this was back in 2013 and haven't used FSX since.
These products are amazing and I really enjoy them but this missing building problem is a pain.
Just to re-cap, I have fresh and up to date versions of all the products, I have excluded my whole fsx folder from being scanned, I have both the addon manager and coutal both show up fine. all FSDT airports are affected and textures appear when really close to the missing buildings.
I have attached 2 photos of my issues. Please note that the missing terminals change whenever I restart Coutal... i.e. one terminals textures come back but another goes.
Hope you can help.
Thanks

This problem has been discussed many times on the forum, and nowhere it has been said it's related in any way to the antivirus. When the antivirus is a problem, the programs won't start, you wouldn't see their menus in the "Addons" menu, and no buildings at all will appear.
If buildings appears only when you get very close, it means everything in our software is running correctly, and it's a problem of your video drivers that are running in a lesser performing mode (causing visual bugs like this), because you are running FSX in Compatibility mode. Every Compatibility mode for FSX.EXE must be turned off, which is how FSX defaults to.

Thank you for getting back to me. I really appreciate it. I have downloaded the latest driver for my gtx 1080. As far as I am aware, no programmes run in compatibility mode unless you tell them too.
I would really appreciate it if you could reply back to me with all the things I could do to solve this issue I.E. A step by step walk through such as try this first then this etc.....
Many thanks

That's not always the case. Sometimes, usually after a crash, Windows will set automatically some compatibility flags. Also, if you have other 3rd party addons that runs in Compatibility mode and start together with FSX, they will have the same effect on FSX.
Check the Properties -> Compatibility tab for both FSX.EXE, and every 3rd party addon that starts with it.
AdamAllTimeLOw:
Thanks for the reply. I will give it a go when I get home. The only 3rd party addons I have are pmdg, uk2000, captainsim, rex essential plus od, flytampa and one or 2 orbx products.
Many thanks sir
