Anyone with Orbx Global+Vector+OpenLC, I need you to confirm or deny this. Select Vagar Airport and see if the end of R30's approach looks the same. Click me

Looks like an error from the airport flatening poly. Maybe someone can alter it. Google maps

Mate, could you take a screen of your scenery insertion points for me?

Hi DetCord, It was a bit tricky as the FTX Central doesn't allow you to expand to see the whole list, but hopefully this will help; Above my insertion point I have a load of addon airports and these FTX entries; These carry on through all my FTX Regions until the insertion point. Below the insertion point I have general FSX entries and then; Right at the bottom is this; I hope this makes sense The only other thing I did was run the "Airport elevation corrections" option in the FTX Global Vector Configuration tool. Cheers, Steve

Thanks for the screens mate. I resolved it by manually editing the scenery insertion points.

Thanks for the screens mate. I resolved it by manually editing the scenery insertion points. So, in what order did you put them to resolve the issue? My St Louis is either on a mountain or in a forrest depending on whether I select the airfield fix or not...neither looks good.

Forget it. Resolved some issues, others persist. Correct order according to Orbx: FTX Global Base FTX Global Vector FTX Global Open LC (When Available) Terrain Mesh FTX Full Regions FTX Airports However, I don't seem to have Global Base anywhere in my scenery library and it's sure as #%&*$# installed.

So, my current order looks something like this: After some Megascenery (disabled unless I use it) and some Aerosoft add ons I have these: Then after the specialized scenery areas (i.e. Edwards, Istanbul, Reno, etc), I have a slew of those BASE files that I'm assuming is FTX Global Base (?) And those run all the way to the end where the default scenery is loaded.

Hmm, well then I don't know what the answer is. Here's STL for me with airport elevation on... And off... So, something isn't correct. I also get a lot of double bridges and such.

Something is certainly #%&*$# up here, I just have no idea what it is. I'm going to shift all of the Orbx specific terrain entries below the XXXX Base files and see what happens. I just find it odd that they'd suggest ordering them differently from their default positions.
EDIT - Nothing is working. Brussels still looks like the screen on the previous page, and Vagar is back to looking the same as before.
EDIT Again... Disabled the Vector indexes and everything looks good. Problem is, I paid for vector and would like to use it.

Add Brussels national to that list as well as Frankfurt and Stuttgart. They were caught, no way they couldn't have been. Isn't new for developers to release unfinished products in this day and age. Why would Orbx be any different?

Well uhh, ahem, I fixed it.
I was running Traffic 360, wasn't happy with it at all and decided to uninstall it and go back to WoAI. All of the elevation and terrain issues are now gone. If you guys are running a Traffic addon or something else that adds buildings or assets like GSX, you might wanna try and deactivate or uninstall them and see if it fixes the issue.
Still, there are other issues with these three Orbx products as I understand. Just thought you guys should know.
