Title: PHTO and Ultimate Terrain USA
Post by: rduda on September 29, 2010, 09:50:09 am
Hello Fabrizio, hello Umberto,

very nice two Airports - I'll definitly buy them for Island-Hopping.

While I'm slewing around, do you have checked the compatibility with Ultimate Terrain USA during your tests?
Especially the coast line with the installed file phto_lwm2.bgl?
Or do the installer "checks" the scenery.cfg for an installed UT-USA while installing?

Thanks,
Rainer.

Hi, Rainer
Thank's for feedback,
I am sorry I haven't checked the compatibility with Ultimate Terrain USA.
I have just installed Fsgenesis mesh with landclass where Lihue works perfectly.
Could you just take some screenshot for overview.
Thank you
Fabrizio

Hi Fabrizio,

of course, no problem. I'll take some screens this afternoon, earlier it's not possible.
Your water-poly leeds to some problems and delete some parts of the coast and the rising hill (because of your water-0ft-flattening-lwm).

Ciao,
Rainer.

Ok, here they are...

First two screens from FS:
From above marked green the parts (coastline and waterpoly), where you tried to make your scenery compatible with FS2004-standard.

This is the look from the airport. You see in the background the cutted hill.

But I'm sure more interesting are the screens from LWMViewer:
This is your lwm-file for the waterpoly (and some land-polys for flattening etc...)
http://rduda.digital-aviation.de/pics/phto/phto01.jpg (http://rduda.digital-aviation.de/pics/phto/phto01.jpg)

And here you can see marked green the "wrong" parts with UT USA.

I'm sure most of the US customers will have UT USA installed.

Feel free to ask if you have questions.

Ciao,
Rainer.

and to add - I'm sure, that phli has problems too:

Above - green marked - the parts where you override UT USA with phli_lwm2.bgl

Ciao,
Rainer.

Where would i get the mesh and landclass by FS genesis at?  I have checked their website for a payware version and they have not seemed to cover that area yet.  I am very interested in the hawaii package as i already have honolulu.  A landclass and mesh would be great for the hawaiian islands!!

Thanks for any info!!

THanks for the info Tom.  I did find what I was looking for.  One questions for the FS Dreamteam guys....after I install will it need to be higher or lower priority than the Honolulu & Hawaiian Islands airport sceneries?

Thanks again everyone.

As a general rule, the larger the area covered by a scenery, the lowest should be its priority on the Scenery Library which means, airports should always placed at the top of everything else.
