Here it is from 1.1.9.0 10:00 UTC
I started with the graphics on Low. Put buildings up to Medium but no change.
What do other users see?
Perhaps the long and complex terminals with curved roofs did not stream with Low settings?
Trouble is there is no way to “reset” the airport. That’s the wonderful world of streaming at the moment.
I could wipe the rolling cache and lose about 8GB of streamed textures from the 16 airports I have used.
Mad. We need a Streaming Editor PDQ.
This is happening if you have another scenery for OMDB over default (premium edition one). Have you purchased scenery from marketplace for this airport? You should delete one of them.
that happens to me too and I do not have any extra sceneries.
No, I’ve never bought anything from Marketplace. I did install the free G1000 instrument in 2020 a while back.
The sim downloaded a huge amount of data for OMDB, so there’s no network reason why the terminal buildings are missing.
I’ll try adjusting the LOD settings; my gut feeling is the buildings have too many triangles to display.
I cranked up the graphic settings to Ultra and rebooted the sim.
It downloaded at 300 Mbps for almost 5 seconds, and then more downloads after that. In other words a big download.
The airport sprang to life - wow, quite impressive. However the terminal buildings were still not drawn, planes were close to walkways, but customers would walk off the runways and fall 30ft and hit the concrete. Not good for business.
Perhaps my 1080TI can’t display the complex terminals. But with 11 GB of VRAM there should space??
All I can think of is to delete the rolling cache and 12 GB of streamed data and start over. Thoughts censored as its a family show.
I deleted the cache. OMDB downloaded 4GB in Task Manager, wow.
But the same result, 3 missing terminals.
I’m beginning to wonder there is a clash with FS2020 Premium Deluxe airports, which appear as streamed in FS2024.
The clash would be with airports created for FS2024 only.
Same here. I have the standard version and never purchased OMDB from Marketplace. I waited for minutes but no building showed up. I’m waiting for INIBUILDS to update their OMDB
Same. No terminals.
I’ve tracked down the bug!
See FS2020 OMDB below, it has the 3 terminal buildings that are missing from 2024.
The 2024 Library says the FS2020 Premium Deluxe airports are streamed, which includes OMDB.
It’s a coding bug.
Speculation: It looks like 2024 is NOT streaming the OMDB terminal buildings, because it thinks they are already streamed in the 2020 airport. There maybe duplicated IDs in 2020 and 2024 terminals causing the problem, but in fact they are different and the 2024 code would not load old data models anyway.
The scenery devs need to dive into the data and find the clashes between old and new terminals, that are causing 2024 to not stream the entire airport.
There is a similar problem with Gatwick EGKK. I know my description is complex, but the devs will understand the problem.
Did Asobo promise to upgrade 2020 airports as well as planes?
FYI, I’ve opened a bug report on this:
Feel free to contribute and vote if you are experiencing this issue.
Hi, same problem here, OMDB completely missing buildigs (only jetways) and EGLL partially incomplete. MSFS 2025 Aviator Edition, There are no possible conflict because I had MSFS 2020 Standard Edition.
PS I found the problem of jetways not connected to the airport also at KDEN airport
Same here OMDB shows only gates , no building at all . So what is the solution for now?
We will have to wait until Asobo fix the issues. As more people report the same issue, it’s likely to be a problem in Asobo’s data source for 2024.
Don’t forget there is a new patch this week. Hope springs eternal!
