RAF Wattisham - P3Dv2 [Resolved]

Post by dhazelgrove » Fri Jan 16, 2015 1:25 pm

Hi there,

I've just bought the P3D version of this product, but am having problems getting the airfield to show.

I have the runway, taxiways and parking (there are Phantoms on them), but no buildings at all.

The product is at the top of the scenery library.

Sounds like your scenery density may be too low. It needs to be a minimum of NORMAL for buildings to show.

I've just had a look in P3D v1.4. (Sorry, don't have v2 but it shouldn't be any different for this.)

With my Scenery complexity set to "Normal" I see buildings and aircraft. If I set the complexity to "Sparse" I lose the buildings. I do still see aircraft though. I have the AI traffic set at 50%.

My scenery sliders are at max, as are the traffic sliders.

Still no buildings.

We're looking into it deeper Dave but wanted to make sure you had tried re-installing and/or redownloading/re-installing?

Did you allow the installer to install to where it found P3D or did you install to a temporary folder and move the files manually?

I used the automated process, and activated as instructed.
The files are where I'd expect them to be.

Weird. :geek:

I would try uninstalling, toss the original download, download a new copy, and then install that new one.

Removed the scenery, downloaded a new copy and installed.
You can see above what I've got.
Some of it is there.

This is P3D v2.4

A picture is worth a thousand words and that last one is. The hangar in the foreground is NOT from our scenery. That can only happen if you have two versions of Wattisham activated. You need to search for the other version and de-activate it. Our Wattisham should then work OK. The hangar looks like a stock FS9/FSX hangar but the default Wattisham Army only has a runway and no hangars ( certainly in FSX which is what P3D v2.4 basically is). You haven't got an MAIW package installed and activated, have you?
