Problem at PF20/Misty's Place
« on: January 31, 2011, 03:49:05 PM »
In front of the hangar with the "Misty" sign there is a part of a cabin in the green hangar door.

Many greetings

Hello Dieter,

Well what you're seeing there is my solution to a problem I was having when I designed the scenery. I wanted to use the old rustic hangar object because Doug, requested that "Misty's Place" be an old hangar converted into a bar and grill.

So I liked the object I had selected but if you walk around that particular building, you will see that there aren't any doors modeled on it. On any side of it. Nothing. 

So my solution was to place a cabin inside like that and position it so there was an entry point now visible. Some other scenery challenges to be overcome are hidden in my designs like that.

Most of my scenery has a smoking chimney effect at it. Well there are only two defaul cabin objects that have a smoking chimney. But I want to add smoke to just about any rooftop structure. Go look at Nina's Landing. There are probably too many smoking chimneys there. 

So to make smoke magically appear where it normally isn't at, I take the turquoise green cabin object with smoke, position my viewpoint above the roof object I want to add smoke too, pull that cabin up to the roof and shrink it in scale until it fits inside the vent, stack, chimney, whatever. 

I make sure it's not visible where it's placed in the top of the previously non-smoking chimney and... Voilà!! Smoke efx is now present.

So there's a few of my secrets for getting around things that I come across.
 ;)

Hmmmm,  :-\
wish I had come to the forums first about this seeming bug at Misty's Place.  ;D

Just spent over an hour trying to find out what scenery was 'interfering' with Misty's.  ::) Now I can go back and turn on all those scenery add on files I turned off unsuccessfully in the Library.   ;)

Need to remember the old saying "Seek and Ye shall find!"  ???
Later,

I was wondering why there was smoke coming from two places over that little cabin.  I don't have that building over the cabin.  It must be part of the Tongass X package, which I don't have yet.

No that object is from the EZ_1.zip file which you'll need to install if you want to see any of our scenery as it was meant to be seen. Please read the readme file and you'll see how it's done.

Yup, I found it.  I don't have OZx libraries.  Downloading now . . . !  I missed that requirement in the readings I managed to peruse.  I just got Tongass Fjords X this morning.  Man I love this scenery!

Same mistake here! Confused OzX with OrbX / FTx - which I do have with all the updates for Pacific Fjords and PNW etc.

Likewise downloading :D

Just so you do not miss it. OZx scenery library has two separate files 1.0 and 1.1.  You need to install 1.0 before you add the v1.1 library.

Yes, I finally got em.  After downloading and installing the OZx Libraries, and updating to v3.3, and a reboot I still had no hangars.  So I decided to double check that ez-library to see if it was working o.k.  I hadn't added the ez-scenery library to my scenery library, so I did and Viola!!!  Buildings.  I thought it was installed because the ez-1 building showed up in the rtmm test.  (maybe I've got that ez-1 test building on my system somewhere else?)  Well, anyway, I'm happy now, Misty's is working for me.

PS- I installed all the ez-scenery files, I just didn't add them to my fsx scenery library.

I installed 1.0, 1.1, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, and 3.3.  The 3.0 files are over 2 gigs, took a while to download that one.

Jeff,
unless your flying in Australia OZx 3.0, 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 are not doing you any good except using up hard drive space as they are all for down under scenery.  ;)
There is one more file you might want to get from OZx though. They have a bunch of small airports for ORBX PNW if you have that package installed.  File name is OZx_NA1.01_install.zip.  In addition I would also download the manual for the airports:
NA1.0Manual.zip
cause you will never find the fields without the info in the manual.

Later,

Spud

Very cool.  Thanks for the info.  Yes, I do love to fly down under quite alot, actually.  I was happy to find the OZx guys.  I have a thing for collecting Australian scenery.  I got the FTX AU sp3 for a huge discount recently, then got a free upgrade to sp4!  I'm smilin'.  Thanks again.

Hope you'll return to North America because once you start flying in the FTX/OZx world down under, you may never come back. It's amazing what they've done. Stellar work.
