I don't think the issue has anything to do with mipmapping. I suspect what you are seeing is a long load time for the ground poly textures. The textures eventually appear once your computer has cleared itself of a processing bottleneck. I know from extensive testing of my scenery that testers with older computers typically experienced untextured ground poly tiles when the sim began loading all the scenery objects. The more detailed the airport, the more likely this will happen especially on older machines with less capable CPU and graphic processors. All of the objects in my scenery are modelled with three or more LODs, or distance conditioned, and all the textures are mipped. That helps a lot with framerates but at some point the sim still has to load all those models and textures into memory so they are available when a draw call comes. That is the point when a detailed scenery puts the most strain on a computer, which coincidentally is usually about the same point the ground poly tiles first appear. If you look at the release notes of my CYWG scenery you will find a performance report of the results of all my beta testers. The testers with Core 2 Duo invariably got a texture lag on the ground poly tiles while the testers with the latest Intel CPU and GeForce graphic cards did not. That of course makes sense because the newer computers had ample processing power. And, all this is compounded by the amount of AI traffic and weather. I stand to be corrected but what I have just described has been my experience with scenery design. Greg

Outstanding texture work. The Disney jet in particular given its complexity. Looking forward to getting both. Any chance of getting the latest Flair livery? Greg

Roger Wensley's frozen lakes and rivers Canada is another option. Can be found here in the library

Thanks for taking us along. I enjoyed your commentary on each of the legs. Greg

I'm also having the same problem with ASE. Greg

I'm transitioning to FS9 on a new Windows 10 computer so this topic is of great interest. It would be useful having a list of what payware aircraft work and which ones do not work. Save me from a lot of trial and error. In particular I am interested to know what works from these vendors: QW (see that 757 works - thanks piet), Level-D, CLS, Flight1, Dreamfleet, Wilco, Feelthere, Carenado, Virtualcol, alphasim, VIRTAVIA. If anyone is able to report on any of these under Windows 10, it would be very much appreciated. Greg

Hans, I designed the scenery to be used with UT-USA so I'll leave it to users who don't have this product of find their own solution, as you've done.

Doesn't sound like you use UT-USA. I state in the release notes that the scenery was designed for use with Ultimate Terrain USA for FS2004. "This scenery will not work properly without UT-USA and will leave you with default buildings in the ocean and odd terrain anomalies" UT-USA is a commercial add on. If you refer to the release notes it has a suggested freeware alternative with a link to the file library here at Flightsim.com. If the freeware Hawaii coastline doesn't work then Tom's suggestion to manual exclude the objects is likely your best option. Greg

Jim, I think this might be your problem. The current version of MCX has an export option called "3DS Max (old) (*.3ds)" . Files exported in that file can imported into gmax. Look for it in the drop down menu. The other option is "3DS Max (*3ds)" which exports in the new 3DS Max format, which isn't recognized by Gmax. Greg

Very Impressive. Looking forward to adding your upgrades to the airport scenery.

Perhaps the problem is from two versions of the same object libraries.
