cfelix Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 Just recently a few of the default buildings, trees and grass have turned black (see attached JPG). I see this at multiple airports. I'm not sure what happened and was wondering if someone else had run into this problem. Any suggestions? Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StringBean Posted December 11, 2015 Share Posted December 11, 2015 That is not a default Lake Tahoe in the pic. There is no such thing as "default grass" and default airports do not have those taxi lights. So you have a problem with addons, not default scenery. What addons are you using? peace, the Bean WWOD---What Would Opa Do? Farewell, my freind (sp) Never argue with idiots.

mrzippy Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 I agree with Bean! (Stay dry up there, Boss! I can stick a life raft or canoe in an envelope and mail it to ya!) I took some quick shots at default KTVL and it doesn't look the same. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evm Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 This can be caused by conflicting library bgls in addon scenery. If you have more than one scenery package (probably from the same developer), switch them all off and reactivate them one by one, always checking the buildings. You should see the buildings when you activate the first scenery that has the conflicting library and they will turn black when you activate the second one. You then either change the layers in the scenery library, or merge the sceneries together into the same folders (if there are duplicate files, keep the larger one) AFAIK the reason is that FSX manages (object) library bgl by name. So if there are different versions of the same library in multiple sceneries, only the first one found gets loaded. And if it doesn't contain all that the second scenery needs, the objects will be black. Had this happen to me a couple of times with freeware airports.

GridNorth Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 This happens to me when the Orbx Bristol Airport scenery is loaded BEFORE the Orbx EU scenery, so I imagine it is to do with the order scenery is loaded even when Orbx is not involved.

cfelix Posted December 13, 2015 Author Share Posted December 13, 2015 I finally found what was causing the problem. There some files that were in earlier versions of the ORBX Library that were not in the current version. Luckily I had a backup copy of the library that was about a year old. After restoring those missing files things were back to normal. Thanks for your help. Charlie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
