Probably nothing you guys can do about it, but I have a small question about the Scenery used...
It seems as if the scenery (or parts) gets hidden behind the clouds.
Can I do something about that?

Its only the ramp lights, its the way i exported them, its because I used 99 opacity to stop the shadow. Once my update comes with fencing and trees it will have this corrected.

I am guessing here but its probably the same thing that causes propellers to appear behind clouds as well.
I am guessing there is no fix but if there is one I would be happy to learn it.

Thanks Rocket, don't hurry, and don't worry.
I just noticed this, and wanted to draw a little attention to it, not knowing IF there even was a solution for this.
I like the scenery, but if nobody mentions things like this, one will never get better, right?

Keep up the good work guys.

this was posted by milo1272 in an extra thread:
I have both FS9 and FSX. I downloaded your wonderful Coningsby package but mistakenly installed it into FSX. My computer can't handle much AI is X even at its best, but since the download I don't have any AI in FSX. I've heard that installing a FS9 AI package into FSX changes (not just adds) files that make it impossible for FSX to run the default AI. Is that true?

So, I want to uninstall the Coningsby package from my FSX and I want to know if just deleting the files will fix my problem. Or, do I need to use a special uninstall program?

Thanks.

I don't believe there are any registry entries if that is what you are asking. You should be fine deleting the files. These packages are not tested or intended for FSX, of course.

Perhaps some of the other FSX users may have something for you.

As a FSX user I can't say for sure about additional AI disabling default AI, I delete the default AI automatically anyway. I want a touch of realism, not some fictional airline using framekilling flyable aircraft as AI.

I have all the MAIW and WOAI packages installed on FSX without a problem, other than creating parking for them, and that is becoming less of a problem as new tools are released.

Hi,

Don't flame me for this please as I love the Jag's as much as anybody else but I remember when released there was a mention somewhere of a later update when more Typhoon's were delivered to Coningsby. I was just curious as whenever this was still planned, or even just repaints. Fully understand if other stuff takes priority first and you'll get no complaints from me either way! If a list of based fleet changes is required by anybody I could sort one out fairly quick.

Oh, might come up to Coningsby next week for a few piccies if the weather's good even though many of the birds picked the wrong time to have messed off to the South West! Get those new block 5 birds flying Nick!

@campbeme Did you ever get your Jag flight plans?
I broke down my bgl for that package and I see that I don't have any Jag's listed either.
Am I missing something?

I think you should find them in the Coningsby scenery directory.

Hi kevin,

Nope cannot find them anywhere. I have had some alternative plans for the Jags emailed to me from another member. But it is a mystery where the originals have gone.

The traffic.bgls for the Jaguar flights were in the Addon Scenery/MAIW RAF Coningsby/Scenery folder, rather than in the scenery/world/scenery as is the norm. Took me a minute or two to figure out where they'd gone....... :lol:

Steve and Alex,
I got it now. I'm at work so I didn't have a chance to check it yet.
Thanks again.
