I'm very pleased and slightly relieved to announce that my NZCH scenery project has been uploaded to Avsim.
Thanks to all the testers ant those who helped in the development of this project.

Search http://www.avsim.com/ in the file library and you should find it!

Thanks,
Connor.

thanks Connor

I really appreciate you taking the time to do this scenery.

I seem to have encountered a wee problem, once I activate the scenery within FSX library for some reason the jetways display but the main terminal is missing ..... I'm am not sure what I have done wrong?

I was going to blame the quake, but the more likely issue is me

any suggestions mate?

Kind Regards Dave

This scenery requires the sliders to be pretty near full. It was designed more with Higher end computers in mind, one that run most of the sliders maxed out.

So try that, I think it is the scenery density slider from memory.

As for blaming it on the earthquake, why not! Everyone else is doing it!

Hi Connor

sorry to be a bloody nuicence, I just can't get this to work for me.

I have re-downloaded the file from Avsim and extracted it to 'Addon Scenery' and tried to activate it via the settings file library. The Fire Station shows up as does what I believe is the Deep Freeze Hanger, but the in regards to the main terminal, only the revised Jetways show and not the actual building. I have reverted back to default to double check this. Troy Chapmans areo club displays fine. I do have all the latest hardware ie 2600K o/c to 4.9Ghz and a GTX 580 GPU so I don't think its hardware. FYI I tried installing the default ChCh traffic as I am using FTX traffic for the region in lieu of UT2.

thanks mate
Cheers Dave

ps ... there is nothing in the texture file with the download .... is this correct?

Don't worry about being a nuicence, that is what support is for!

You have got Troy Chapman's scenery installed haven't you? If you have it might pay to check that have my scenery files above Troy's in the scenery library, that could be causing a problem. Scenery sliders might me another problem?

And there isn't any thing in the texture file so don't worry!

Thanks for letting me know!

thanks Mate

I will give that a go after I get home from work tonight

Hi Connor,

for some reason it still doesn't want to work for me.

This is what I have been doing.

a)Install Troy Chapmans scenery. (The installer does this automatically for me and I don't need to activate from within the scenery library)

b) Unzip your file to my 'temp' file.

c) I copy and paste to E:\Flight Simulator X\Addon Scenery

d) Activate via the scenery library either the default or 3rd party folder.

e) start a free flight, and as I said earlier, Troy Chapmans yellow aero club shows, your fire station shows and the 'revised jetways' show but there is no main terminal.

Should I take to my PC with a Gas Axe or do you have any other thoughts?

Thanks & Regards Dave

Hi Dave,

Are your scenery sliders set to Very Dense? I had this issue when testing for Connor.

Yeah he's right, you really need to have your sliders set to high. I did it like this because otherwise people with there sliders at half will have there FS experience turned into a slide show. One of the pitfalls of using FSX default objects.

Hi Stewart,

thanks for your response. I have tried this mate to no avail. It seems weird that the new revised Fire Station shows but not the main terminal, I have re-downloaded the file from Avsim. I suspect its some quirk with Windows 7 that I have just upgraded too. UAC and everything else is disabled as far as I am aware so I just haven't been able to nut it out yet. I am sure its just something simple I need to adjust.

Kind Regards Dave

ps when I get home from work this pm, I might try adjusting all the sliders to default and then sliding them to max

The NZCH scenery , terminal building is not Troy C s , this is from NZscenery airport only at a guess .

that's my understanding as well Ian .... I believe Troy C's scenery is displaying fine

Just installed and cant see terminal either. scenery sliders are maxed.

by **connor** » Sat May 21, 2011 2:40 pm

How very strange? I haven't had that problem and neither have any of my testers.

Sounds like an exclusion problem.

by **frostynz** » Sat May 21, 2011 2:53 pm

Connor, could you do me a favour .... can you please post a list all the files that are in either the default or 3rd party traffic scenery folder as I was just wondering if the Avsim download contains all the building files it should have

thanks Dave

by **connor** » Sat May 21, 2011 3:32 pm

Sure can!

It goes NZCH.zip/NZCH. you then have your two traffic options: NZCH 3rd party traffic or NZCH default traffic/scenery, textures and readme.txt.

scenery contains the following:

cargoterminal2.bgl
carpark.bgl
helicopter.bgl
helipad.bgl
internationalterminal1.bgl
Maintanace hangar.bgl
nzch airport improvements.bgl
nzch cargo terminal.bgl
NZCH domestic1.bgl
NZCH_ADEX_CH.bgl
NZGI_ADEX_CH.bgl
operation deepfreeze2.bgl
readme.txt

Textures is empty

The only file different between default and 3rd party traffic is the Afcad but the name is the same.

Download Troys latest NZCH scenery here: http://fs-snowman.com/index.php?ind=downlo...ew&iden=327

The terminal should pop up.

by **frostynz** » Sat May 21, 2011 7:12 pm

Well done ! Mr Eddy

All I had to do was download the file from the FS Snowman site. The one that was linked to Flightsim.com???? must be an older version of Troy's scenery. So installed chch 1.3 from above link, actiavted in library and then installed Connor's and activated so it sat above Troy's. Piece of cake.

Thanks Mate
Regards Dave
