FlyTampa - KLAS & Las Vegas

For anyone still having this issue, you need to rebuild ytour manifest.json.

You can do so using the “easy layout and manifest generator” in the flightsim to site.

Does that also fix the weird triangle polygon textures over the runway and taxiway lights?

Can this be done for streamed Marketplace content??

I have the same question. If so could you give a more detailed explanation on how to do this? Thanks!

I don’t see any possible way this mod would work for the streamed version since it modifies the manifest.json. Maybe if Las Vegas is downloaded it would work?

Anyways I tried with the standalone version and it didn’t work. Get a python not found error and I don’t know how to fix it.

I have not yet tried running this tool. but I do have Python installed on my PC for other reasons. It’s freely available from several sources, but you should be able to install and run it from the Microsoft Store easily enough.

I have an older version of Python I use for XP11.

I installed the latest Python version from the store, ran the script, and the layout.json and manifest.json files were modified. But I can’t enable Las Vegas City in my library.

Same for me - I ran the script for both the Las Vegas City and Airport packages (installed from Orbx) and now I cannot enable the packages in the sim. They show as “Disabled” with no ability to enable them. They are linked into my Community folder via Addon Linker, but the sim doesn’t like them after modification.

Man, I wish FlyTampa’s KLAS and Las Vegas Strip package worked properly in SU4. I miss that scenery, badly.

Yeah FlyTampa has gone totally dark recently. They aren’t pumping out scenery like they used to and it’s hard to believe KLAS which is one of their biggest and best scenery has not even had an official MS2024 upgrade.

Worth noting that FlyTampa isn’t just one developer. It’s a number of developers creating their own scenery under the FlyTampa brand.

Same overhere. The city stuff recently appeared for me in the MP, but as shown here by more people the north end of the strip misses. Oh, oh, and FlyTampa has become an expert in keeping mum’s the word.

These guys make some of my favorite airports (particularly KLAS and EHAM) and I own most of what they released for FS2020. Pretty disappointed with their communication on updates for 2024 and new products. Realize that 2024 created a bunch of work for them but this is an odd PR strategy.

That said, this can’t be a surprise to them because customers have been inquiring for months now to no avail. Hope they stay in the game. Would happily pay for updates and new airports. Maybe a nice 2024 TNCM.

Slowly some of their 2020 airports are getting updated for 2024, but they aren’t official upgrades it seems, and they are free.

YSSY and KBOS both work in 2024 just fine, so here’s hoping they are still cooking Vegas in the oven some more. They are definitely quiet.

Orbx was also quiet but they have just dumped loads of FREE upgrades on the MP, and they are awesome in 2024

KBOS works if and only if you do not also have KLAS installed and activated - if you do, you will see spurious triangular textures in place of some of the taxiway lighting, as detailed in several posts/threads around the forums. So heaven forbid you want to fly between Vegas and Beantown in FS2024 with both sceneries active.

I need to have a look but is KLAS 2024 compatible? It isn’t showing up in the 2024 map for me so I presume it’s not thus won’t enable it

There are a bunch of issues - biggest one is weird triangular lighting textures around taxi ways for some people (me included). The Vegas Strip part of the package has most of the buildings on the north end missing except for lighting/signage decal textures, which appear to be floating in midair where the missing buildings should be.

The whole package needs a 2024 do-over.

I have both sceneries active in 2024 and don’t see this problem.

There’s a fix for the triangle issue on flightsim.to.

Not sure the name of the file. I had the issue and the patch file fixes it 100%.

The patch on Flightsim fixes the triangles but not the Strip. It also doesn’t correct the issue where, when you have KLAS + other FlyTampa sceneries, the triangles appear in those other places as well.

Again, the whole package needs a correct do-over. It was so great before SU3 broke it.
