St Michaels Mount - GenXv3

Post by DaveB »

Hi there pop-pickers :)

As mentioned in another thread, I flew out of Culdrose the other day to find St Michaels Mount had gone in GenXv3.. and I wasn't kidding :lol: The new tile is still there but no mount.. just a few trees. I've had a quick shuftie around other known landmarks and they're all still there.

Anyone know why St Michaels Mount may have suddenly been spirited away? There's no visible bomb damage so I guess it wasn't Ian seeking revenge in his B52 :lol: Perhaps he's perfected the Philadelphia Experiment? *-)

St Michael's Mount is a model, the position of which I posted in the other thread.

Hi George :hello:

I'm sorry mate.. I didn't see the location when I first read that post :wall:

It IS where you say it should be but for some ungodly reason, it's not visible 'in sim'. :dunno: It was.. I made a point of going and having a look. Very nice it was too although it slowed my frames down to the mid 20's. Can't remember if FSX liked it much though.. I seem to remember getting an error but can't remember if it was a visualfx error or a memory error. I'd not been back there since. :dunno:

Any other scenery in that area higher up the scenery list that may be excluding it?

Hi Dave :)

That thought had occured to me. When I originally installed it, it was at the top of the list as you'd expect. After visiting a couple of airports and finding tree's where they shouldn't be, I moved all the v3 areas below everything except v2. It stopped the rogue trees but may have excluded St Michaels Mount. The only things I have in that area are VFR Airfields vol1 and the ES Scillies, Wolf Rock and Longships. I guess I can move the v3 3D Landmarks above all of that lot. I'll give it a try :)

EDIT.. Moving the v3 Vol1 3D Landmarks library to the top of the scenery list has brought St Michaels Mount back so one of those tinkers above was causing an exclude :|
