P3D v5.2: The strange rectangles are back...

Post by Bert Groner »

Dear dev's and all contributors here - good day!

Thanks to LM for providing v5.2 of P3D.

I've de- and reinstalled all componets of P3D v5.1 and reinstalling beginning with the client each. The overall texture colouring is much better IMHO.

But unfortunatelly the strange rectangles are back switching between different colour- and lighting states. Here an example taken near KBOS:

I see them with and without Orbx Global Base. Further installed is only PILOT's Ultimate Next Generation as the mesh provider.

We know that very well but I cannot remember the solution working with former versions of P3D. Can you help me out to get rid of these rectangles?

Thanks a lot in advance - stay healthy - greetings from the German Outback!

Hello,
I've seen this a few times before in my simulators. I fixed it by doing a verify files in orbx central. Doing this for Orbx Global base fixes the texture issues your seeing. You may need to use the Sync Simulators tool in Orbx Central as well.

Hope this helps

Hi Glen!

Thanks for the hint but it doesn't work. The error is there with and without Orbx Global Base so I'm pretty sure it is not up to them...

Take care!

@ Bert Groner,
Bert,

A quick look around KBOS and it looked ok.

Looks like your OpenLC NA is corrupted. See this Orbx thread.

It's a typical ORBX files "damaged" symptom. Reinstall global base, check LC and reinstall Orbx Library.

Good day Gentlemen!

It's indeed up to openLC North America made by Orbx. I "verified files" - the same corruption. Then I deleted openLC North America and the rectangles are gone.I will try F1le's hint and it it doesn't work I'm going move over to the Orbx forum.

Thanks for your time nad help!

Gentlemen!

After the deinstalling of openLC North America and (!) Orbx Library and re-installing of first the Library and then openLC North America the problem is gone. Everything looks fine now. Will check later with the other openLCses.

Thanks again for your highly valued help and reminders!

Bert
