Progressive Taxi Stopped Progressing...

:( Ahh, Well...Leave it to FSX to start my ulcer up. I flew from St. Louis, MO (after the debates, of course). A "perfect" flight. Followed the flight plan. Obeyed all ATC instructions. Shoot a decent approach to Denver's Rwy 35R. Landed (well, ok). Exited on the left side. Requested taxi instructions to parking. Was given the instructions from Denver Ground. Turned on the progressive taxi function. Having fun. Then suddenly, the progressive taxi turned off. I turned it back on. The menu said it was on, but...no yellow line to follow. I zoomed way out to high above the airport. No yellow line in sight. I was lost!:( Lost....at one of the largest airports in the U.S. :( So, I did what any enterprising virtual pilot would do...I cheated!!:cool:

Hit the "Go To" function, and deposited my Lear in the GA parking lot (#5). I'd planned to make a video of this flight. Glad I changed my mind.

 

This isn't the first time Progressive Taxi did a vanishing act. I didn't appreciate it :mad:

 

Anybody got any ideas :confused:

Yeah, crap happens! I have had it disappear at De Gaulle, France and also a few times at Heathrow. Sometimes it reappears and sometimes not.

Oh well...Guess I'll just learn to live with it...:rolleyes:

It's still there, but hidden by a mesh mismatch.

I have had that problem a time or two also. What I found was if you go to the outside view (F11), and pan around, you might see the yellow arrows. May not work every time, but it has a few times for me.

This has happened to me also and it is frustrating. The outside view brings it back in part if I move around the aircraft with different views. As has been said by others, there seems to be a scenery/mesh conflict going on. I personally use the progressive taxi yellow more as a standby option just in case I screw up following the airport charts......and cause mayhem with ATC LOL

As well as mesh problems it can also be caused by something as simple as a disconnected taxy link. If the author of the scenery has placed a taxiway close to but not connected to another taxi link it will cause problems even if the 'texture' looks connected. Sometimes, if you continue to travel in the last direction indicated, you will suddenly pickup the arrows again. It can also happen sometimes if a link is properly connected but part of the taxiway has been set as closed or vehicle and there is no other physical way to get to the parking area. In both cases AI traffic will taxy as far as it can and then time out.

As a backup, you could write down the ATC ground control instructions and follow all the little yellow signs around until you get to your parking space:p
