KDFW and MegaCity Dallas
« on: September 16, 2010, 04:09:16 pm »
Hi folks!

As I'm on the final for my review on KDFW for FS MAGAZIN I've tested the compatibility of KDFW with MegaCity Dallas (MCD) www.megascenery.com (FS 2004 and FS X).

It works or better fits very good but the local texures of MCD are covering almost all of the surface of the airport scenery.

http://www.fsmagazin.de/KDFWMC.jpg

In the scenery.cfgs KDFW is on top and MCD "burried" far "down under".

Can you a) confirm this and b) tell me what to do here please?

Thanks in advance - best for now!

Bert

The screen is actually FS 2004 - and the solution as well.

With FS X it happens "sometimes" - but not on a regular base. Will test to deactivate the aerial photo as well in FS X tomorrow and come back.

Have a nice weekend!

You need to search through the megascenery folder and remove the DFW bgl files.

Hi Bruce!

This thought was my first approach - but I could not find any associated files for KDFW inside the MegaCityDallas-folders - the nomencalture is different. Do you know which one(s)?

Anyway it seems to work now.

All the very best!

Hi Juniormafia!

As mentioned above after I'd deactivated the aerial photo of Dallas inside the scenery.cfg the problem has gone.

Take care!

Bert

In your scenery library, are the files for the MegaCity Dallas above the FSDT KDFW file? If so, you must move the Megacity files down the list until all files are below the KDFW file. If the Megacity files are above KDFW in the list, this means they are in higher priority than the FSDT airport, which means that they will come up on top of the airport, which is not what you want. So move all the files down the list until they are all a lower priority level than KDFW airport. This is a very common error with Megascenery/MegaCity and airports that I have had, and I fixed it by moving the airport to a higher priority level. Hope this helps

Hi Natbrain!

No, this doesn't help at all - this time. Only switching of the aerial photo.

Best for now!
