agathosdaimon Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Hi yes i know this is an old game, but i am someone who likes old flight sims so putting that aside, i do have a query i got x-plane 7 from ebay and installed it today - it runs okay if i use my intel graphics card and not the nvidia one, however in the sim, there seems to be only land textures for western europe or thereabouts - all the other countries have their airports and aids, but no land, so if i go to say La Guardia or Melbourne intl, then it is just runways sitting on water - is this right? or is something not working as it should, playing this in windows 10 64bit is there something ineed to do to fix this?

Art Burke Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 I'm not an expert on X-Plane 7 - I was a Microsoft simmer for eons. When I returned to simming, it was to X-Plane because it seemed there was a lesser level of complexity I see you got an answer already. Let me agree with him, but add the following: It seems that nowhere where you bought X-Plane, if you installed the sim with the DVDs, you should have the appropriate "key" with your physical data (DVD, DVD-holder, etc). I think I remember reading somewhere that the "..runways on water.." can also be a symptom of not having scenery installed for that region. Go back to your docs (is there a "read.me.txt" or similar?) and somewhere along the way you can find info about adding scenery if you didn't install it all the first go around.
