Fuel dock embedded in building. My plane is sitting at:
N54 28.29 W128 34.36 Heading of 350
Anybody else seeing this, or is the problem on my end?
-
Just checked in my P3Dv4.x
Fuel dock is correct positioned, I don't have that green shelter.
-
Thanks, Dieter. Hopefully someone will come up with what that object is so I can get rid of it. I'm running FSX DX10.

Here's what I see at the same spot. Different grass, different pavement, etc.

Hi, Steve. Weird. So where do you suppose these anomolies are coming from? Could it be a Global or Vector problem? I just installed the new ORBX Libraries which fixed some major issues I was having at other places.
The only other thing I can think of is: I discovered that I had ORBX North America, and the newer openLC North America Alaska/Canada both installed. I un-installed North America, thinking they were probably redundant. Maybe I'll try putting it back. Have no idea if this problem occurred before or after that, though.
-
I have no idea. I wonder what others see. Maybe what I see is wrong and what you see is right.
-
I doubt it. I even tried closing one eye. Re-installing North America is not an option. You can't even buy it now...obsolete. I'll just live with it. If that's the only issue I have then I'm happy. Otherwise the sim is working great.
C'ya. pal.

I just checked this situation in my FSX/Acc installation (DX9) and it looks like Steve's screenshot.
Note: I have Orbx VECTOR and openLC NorthAmerica installed! So this software doesn't cause your problem.
I wonder: what do you mean by "ORBX North America". What kind of software is this? I really cannot remember Orbx ever had a package like this. There were ony the different parts of North America like PNW, PFJ, NRM, CRM and so on.
-
Yup.. the openLC.. had an Alaska LC then later that turned out or expanded into Global openLC NA. But don't think there was any conflict.. it was just a smaller LC area to a larger one which covered most of North America. (The FTX Global openLC North America is current under the FTX Global range).. then Under North America as Dieter mentioned are the Regions like PNW, PFJ, NRM, CRM and so on.
But these shouldn't cause any issues either.
Like even search your sim install for "Terrace" or "CYXT" to try to find the scenery file: Appears like something else might be installed as in a another 3rd part scenery which is adding that building. Or turn some of the other 3rd party scenery off to try to find the source.

FSX at CYXT the fuel pumps are free and clear in my sim. (FSX)
-
Thanks, Spud. Seems I'm the only one with the problem.
Dieter, I had it backwards. OpenLC North America is the newest, includes and supersedes openLC North America Alaska/Canada according to ORBX Direct. Why that icon was in my FTX Central I have no idea. There is no record of my ever having purchased it (openLC North America) at the FSS.
Norm, good idea but all that comes up for CYXT and Terrace is flight plans. I give up. I'll just get fuel someplace else. :'(
-
FWIW ORBX released software noted in jsapair's post. Open LC North America Alaska/Canada which was a partially completed LC offering that ORBX released a final version of that included a discount IF you had bought the incomplete version previously. Lots of gripes about the process at the time.
Of course the FSS was basically pushed aside by ORBX when FTX Central was released and you had to transfer all your FSS stuff using the new Central.

Yep, and that was one that wouldn't xfer.."no valid license" or something similar. That new openLC NA is like $54 AU. Ouch.

They warned people for six months before the new version came out, and gave them 3 months to update at the discounted price afterwards. They didn't have to offer a discount at all. Let's beat a dead horse.
-
That's a move I'll never forgive Orbx. It was completely illegal. But John Vennema dealt with it on the formus in his typical way: Shut up, subject closed...
-
Right on, Sue!
-
Just FYI, I got the original problem fixed with a solution from Dieter. A conflicting .bgl file in an addon scenery folder "Bandit-FSX-ORBX". Third party West Coast Tour of some sort.
Thanks again, Dieter, good score.

Well that makes sense now: Bandit-FSX-ORBX scenery folder.. I see your posts at ORBX.. Bandit sounds familiar from somewhere but can't recall where..lol.. hmmm west coast tour? Hmmm... a 3rd party scenery piece that created your phantom building!! Nice find.
Not a big thing but nice to know that you're in sync without the CYXT bandit bgl being activated.
-
Bandit could have come from AVSIM or someplace similar.
I couldn't find diddly-squat on a search for CYXT or Terrace. Nick Cooper at ORBX gave me a list of the known files for CYXT in PFJ. When I couldn't even find those I knew something was afoot, Watson. Come to find out my SSD where my FSX resides had never been indexed in Win7. Guess it can't find it if it doesn't know it's there. You learn something new every day...or forget something you already knew.
