Release - Venice X


Recommended Posts

Attached is a screenshot of the parked AI problem. ALso an overhead view if I can also attach that.

David,

I attach a screenshot of the airport, how it SHOULD look.

You can clearly see, that you have ANOTHER afcad file somewhere, that makes the problems you mention.

Have a look at the main tarmac, you will see that instead of the light-colored concrete, you have another one, smaller on top of it.

So please try to find the other file that causes your problems.

Unfortunately you are right. I just installed (the released version) today and also found that the installer copies both

ven3d_sp1.bgl and ven3d_sp2.bgl

into the scenery folder. This is major overkill, so after removing one of them, it is strange that you still get blurries. Frankly nobody does.

The only thing I can think of is video memory. Blurries usually occur if lower mipmaps are getting loaded instead of the high-res ones, due to video memory or allocation problems.

Ah Ha!!!

I've got them both installed too!!!!

So since I have accelertion installed, do you recommend deleting the SP1 BGL :?:

In the meantime I checked if MyTraffic had a file that corresponds to David's problems.

Yes, there is. Although I only have MyTraffic v. 5.1 and not the latest 5.1a, there is an afcad file which causes the problems.

MyTraffic has a BR2_LIPZ.bgl in its own scenery folder, which needs to be removed or renamed for using VeniceX.

Hope it helps.

Yes, most logically and most definitely you need to remove one of them.

If you have Acceleration, only the ven3d_sp2.BGL should remain there.

looking now at the scenery compared to the other screens I see... my scenery finally does maintain the 19-23 fps, but with occassional blurries (which I blame on only a 256mb AGP card). it still looks pretty fantastic!

it is great work over all... and most of those gondola guys are jerks anyway, so I don't mind getting rid of them

Ah ha! Now, I have my 20FPS too. I was getting 6-8FPS prior to deleting that SP1 file.

But I still have that Broken airliner there.. And I don't have MyTraffic. But its cool!

I have a dual Core 2 OCed to 3.3Ghz.

Hello,

I found and removed the MyTraffic X LIPZ bgl file. Then restarted FSX; it displayed the usual scenery database reload bar. However, I'm still seeing 'double' textures for the tarmac, and the AI planes still are misparked. I am in touch with Burkhard at MTX support for ideas there, perhaps there is some other MTX file that is the problem.....

Regards,

David L.

Upon checking, I found that I had removed a "LIPX" bgl file by mistake. It is LIPZ of course. When I rectified this blunder, I checked MTX priority in the scenery library. It was at the top, Number One. I was sure I had placed it further down as Burkhard suggested, dont know how it got there. So I moved it back down the list. And in FSX, Venice Marco Polo airport looked perfect, just as Aerosoft designed it, and with a nice smattering of MTX traffic. Good feeling... :D

May I say the combo of Aerosoft's airport and MTX AI was impressive. I had to fly around just to check it out.....

Thanks!

Dear Kok,

I cannot use Venice X under the FSX + SP1 + SP2 though under the FSX + SP1 it's no serious problem.

Around Venice the displaying has become awkward and FS has been frequently forced interruption with " Your computer has run out available memory. Please restart Flight Simulator and select graphics, scenery or traffic settings."

I am using Core2Duo E6600, CORSAIR TWIN2X2048-8500C5 2GB and GeForce 7800 GTX under Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit.

Sincerely,

Kan-ichiro Fushihara

I only saw today that Venice X has been released - judging by the screenshots, the final version is a huge improvement over the initial previews, and over the FS9 version. In fact, it's pretty much all spot on - the churches, the bell towers, the vaporetti... As a local, I'm officially very, very impressed. Hats off to Andras! :)

Federico
