Build 61 and runway textures - oiled earth

[asimmsjr]

Thanks for the corrections in build 61 of SceneGenX. Steel mats as a runway surface are now working but Oiled Earth still is not working for FS2004 scenery. Is this because of an error in SceneGenX or does FS2004 not have that texture?

I have checked the code for runways, and the OIL_TREATED code for the runway surface is correct. If it is not showing in FS, then something is wrong in FS. I did find some bugs in SGX when selecting this surface in the overruns and blastpads, so I have fixed that for the next build.

Tom,

Could you list the name of one of the runway textures so I don't have to search each one.

Tom:

In the next version please correct the overrun, blast pad and displacer thereshold surface (if posible).

The problem:

If the surface is concrete and blast pad is asphalt, in the scenery the blast pad like concrete...

The xml code look right...

<Runway
lat = "-31.3100735000482" lon = "-64.2083682628682" alt = "488.899"
surface = "CONCRETE" <= This is the value

<BlastPad
end = "SECONDARY"
length = "148.0"
width = "45.0"
surface = "ASPHALT"/> <= This is the value

The blast pad look CONCRETE in the scenery...

Other thing:

The distance of Vasi look wrong. I set up 300 mts. from thereshold but the XML code say other value:

<Vasi
end = "SECONDARY"
biasZ = "1300.0" <= This is correct??
type = "VASI22"
side = "LEFT"
biasX = "-41.0"
spacing = "200.0" <= In this value I set 200 mts.
pitch = "2.5"/>
<Vasi
