Hello,
I need advice on how to correct a scenery loading issue. In the distance, especially in mountainous terrain, I am seeing scenery objects in the distance as described in my topic header. They appear as thick ridges of ice. They go way as I near them. Is there away to extend them out of my sight range? Not sure how to add a screen shot here so can’t show what I mean.
Simply drag and drop or copy and past a screenshot here. Or use this symbol in the toolbar:
Thank You.
You are welcome!
By any chance, do you have any MODs installed? They usually tend to produce errors in the terrain.
In the area I only have airports installed. FS Dreamteam CYVR and SimAddons CYKA. They only cover a very small area in certain flat lands though. No other scenery Mods.. pretty clean install.
Just to be clear. As I approach the circled area, it does turn into proper mountains so I was thinking I had a scenery load distance setting wrong.
MODs can mess up globally, not only the area they are in … so you have to find the culprit in all your MODs.
This can also originate from defunct MODs.
I suggest you to remove all of your MODs (also uninstall the ingame marketplace MODs if there are any) and try again. If it resolves that way, you know that indeed a MOD was the problem, if it is still there, than it seems to be a sim bug (but could still be a local problem, e.g. messed up sim config files etc …)
Removed all my MODs and I’m not seeing the icewall anymore so your prognosis seems to have been correct. I’ll slowly add them back and see which one or ones are causing the issue. All the ones I removed were freeware. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
You are welcome! Please let us know what mod caused the issue once you identified it.
Hello All,
Well, after many flights and much testing it seems the freeware scenery from planeguy-bc-o4 pt 3 was causing the issue. However there may be a problem with all 4 of his freewares, pt 1, pt 2 and also pt 3 and 4.
I added pt 1 and all was good. Added pt 2 and all was good. When I added pt 3 the icewalls appeared again. I removed pt 3, however the icewalls remained. I then removed pt1 and pt 2 and the icewalls were gone. I did not try pt 4.
These all worked fine without issue before SU12. I dislike pointing the finger at a particular developer, but these are my findings.
