Title: KDFW Jetways
Post by: Michael_B767_ATP on October 12, 2010, 08:22:09 am

Hi,

All my jetways at KDFW are missing. All I did was install the latest update.

http://www.rmfc.us/photos/1KDFW.jpg (http://www.rmfc.us/photos/1KDFW.jpg)

Mesh Resolution slider is at 10m/pixel
Mesh Complexity slider is at 100
Advanced Animations is checked

How do I fix this?.

Thanks

Wrong mesh settings will only make the jetways to appear at a different altitude than the terminal, but not disappearing entirely. And Advanced Animations unchecked will only stop the animation.

If they have disappeared entirely, it can only due to another AFCAD in conflict: jetways are inside the AFCAD, and are the only thing we don't handle with our modules (which is why, when the Trial expires, you'll see just jetways), but another AFCAD in conflict can exclude them.

Another possible explanation is, if you have AES installed, but not active or correctly installed so, it's able to exclude our jetways, but its own replacement ones do not appear for any reason.

Do you have AES installed and it's somehow inactive?

...exclude is working but AES jetways aren't

happy landings

Hi,

I have AES 2.08 installed and it shows KDFW by FSDreamTeam as Active.

Note: If I set AES KDFW to inactive the jetways return. Is there a problem with AES?.

Hi,

UPDATE: I found the problem, it turned out to be AES. I don't like FSX's autogen so I had it turned off. I just bumped autogen up to sparse and all is fine.

Thanks

Theres a bug in aes were it wont work too well with autogen off. it really sucks because I too normally have it off since it causes a big fps hit for me. depending on the area I'm at, you can try reducing the number of buildings and trees per cell threw the add-manger. not sue if had changed for fsx sp2 http://blogs.technet.com/b/p-12c_pilot/archive/2006/10/10/autogen-tweak-that-might-help.aspx
