OMAL Autogen

Screenshot of OMAL showing errant autogen buildings (see Package Support forum, "Export Hawk packages by MAIW (New Additions!")

No big deal, I'd just like to put it right if I can!

Wow!

Do you have some sort of scenery addon there, or is that all default..
Not sure how a beta could miss that!?! Have to drive through 10 houses to get to runway!!

I was one of the Beta Testers and they were not there in the testing with scenery at max. I suggest that the excludes are missing or corrupt somehow.
No buildings at Al Ain on my setup.

I have the 5 OMAL exclude files in the Addin Scenery/Scenery folder - will try downloading again to make sure they're not corrupt. AFAIK I don't have any other scenery addonns in this area, but will do another check. Thanks guys!

Hi Alex,

Busy field you got there Alex

. Have you tried a reinstall of the package?

My system looks the same as Steve's. Do a reinstall and update us on how you get on mate.

Mine looks exactly like Alex's, so I don't think its a corruption, it maybe that we have a common addon.

So a reinstall is not going to fix this one me thinks. We must have an African landclass or FSGenesis in common.

Tried a re-download and re-install, same result. A question, on the screenshot Steve posted the airport seems to be surrounded by open desert - on my system it is towards the edge of a large city? (see screenshot)

Alex, have you tried OOTH yet? I have the same problem to a lesser scale, trees all over an Apron and buildings dotted around taxiways.

alexrfixit · Post by **alexrfixit** » 24 Aug 2008, 10:14

Steve, I think you've hit it on the head! Do you have an Afrca Landclass add-on by Jim Keir installed? Tried disbling that and OMAL is out in the desert now (as it should be according to Google Earth!) Didn't think of that at first 'cos I never thought of the UAE as being in Africa!

BTW, am I missing something? All I have at OOTH is a runway - no taxiways or anything?

Sounds like the afcad hasn't been installed, is it the default one that you see?

I too have have Jim Keir's landclass, spooky huh?

alexrfixit · Post by **alexrfixit** » 24 Aug 2008, 11:02

Yes, I only have the default for OOTH - should I have an MAIW afcad or is yours from a package that's not released yet?

OOTH is RAFO Thumrait.

The Omani Hawk/F16/Jaguar pack.

Yea me too. Are the F16 and Jags in with the Oman Hawks?

They are indeed, hiding in plain sight

Steve if need be, an airport background polygon would exclude all that autogen and tidy up the airport.

Post by **Firebird** » 24 Aug 2008, 18:47

Mike, yeah I was trying to do that but it seems that my limited success for a certain Hungarian airfield was a bit of a fluke as I can't get it to compile now*sigh*.

Ah well, will come back to it when I have more time.
