Walls and Roof Not Showing
« on: June 07, 2016, 01:30:13 am »

I installed the try before by download and when I load it in FSX on a Windows 7 64bit system it looks like the picture attached at the link.

Many of the walls are transparent and there is no ramp concrete textures when I look out the cockpit windows.

What did I do wrong in the install process?

I love what I am seeing though.

Do the walls appear if you go very close  ? Are you running FSX in one of the Compatibility modes maybe ? If yes, they must all be turned off.

Also, it's possible that if you start FSX from another program which is set in Compatibility mode, it might have the same adverse effects on the sim (video drivers in Compatibility mode under-perform and have some issues like this)

The problem is the same whether I am close to the buildings or far away.

I am not running in compatibility mode

This is the only scenery that is doing this in my FSX collection.

Intalled the demo in to FSX-SE and everything is good.

I still would like to get it working in FSX.

Are you sure FSX is not running in Compatibility mode ?

Maybe it works with FSX:SE, just because you have a clean FSX.CFG there, so the problem might be some kind of tweak that shouldn't be applied either.

How do I check compatibility mode?  Are you saying that I should delete my FSX.CFG and let it rebuild itself?

How do I check compatibility mode? 

No, Compatibility mode is a Property for the FSX.EXE executable, so you check it by right-click on the executable and select Properties->Compatibility. Nothing should be enabled on that page.

Note that, it's possible that running 3rd party apps that are *themselves* set up in Compatibility mode, will cause the same effect as running FSX in Compatibility mode.

That's something worth trying, perhaps making a backup first.

Rebuilt FSX.CFG and still the issue persist. In fact the floating taxi lines(artifacts) have now appeared. 

If I can not load this in to FSX I will need to go back to BluePrint garbage. Your scenery is so much better.
