wiebe 6 Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I have the same problem. I hope you will be able to solve this, because it's keeping me from buying more of your wonderful scenery packages. I think you run a great company and enjoy many of your products.

Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Hello Staffan, I will endeavour to find out what is going on with this. I will again place it at the top of the Weekly Support Issues and make mention of the unrest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staffan 1 Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 Hello Staffan, I will endeavour to find out what is going on with this. I will again place it at the top of the Weekly Support Issues and make mention of the unrest. Great Shaun, You know,...it might seam like a minor thing this issue. But as a matter of fact, I know that this shadow issue is a crusial point that makes a decision for some simmers wether to switch over to FSX from FS9 or not.

Developer OPabst 2091 Posted January 21, 2010 Developer Share Posted January 21, 2010 Hi, this is not a Issue, which is simply fixable by a small patch, as it is a combination problem based on may parts, and this are the combinations on multilayered Airportgrounds, which need the BGL based Runwaylights (because AFX Lights are not displayed) and the "bug" in the FSX code not handling the shadows of old AI Models above this Runwaytypes. So, all we can do is to use and find workarounds, but the most will not be realistic: 1.) Use only AI traffic based on nativ FSX code -> No realistic because of the leak of good models 2.) The Developers remove all the multilayers from the ground and use only the base -> no solution, because then you don't like the airports anymore 3.) Switch of the Aircraft shadows - the best solution for the moment 4.) I am in development of a complete differnent Runwaylighting, which is allready used in Ibiza X and will be used in Mahon X and Innsbruck X too. But this will not be a simple replacement, it's more a new developement, which maybe will follow for other older airports step by step, but that must be discussed and done, so nothing just possible out of the box in 5 minutes. But, the positive thing is, that there is a solution in view, which don't drop the frames and will have other enhancements in the visual quality.

For those who want to use for example World of AI planes and get as much realism as possible, including aircraft shadows, it is not nice to only use default airports. I think that many many FSX users would be very greatful to be able to use even Aerosoft sceneries and also be able to have aircraft shadows switched on, with visible AI from FS9. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staffan 1 Posted August 8, 2011 Author Share Posted August 8, 2011 Just curious how things are developing redarding this still so anoying issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 It would seem that if you want to use AI Traffic that is not compliant then you need to use the workaround or make a purchase of traffic that is indeed FSX complaint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
