There's a series of files you'll need to remove. One is definitely the Global Scenery/ directory There's also a 3d bumpmap file (which the presence of signifies it's a demo or not). You may be better off just downloading the XP10 demo yourself (jnto a new directory), update it to the latest version, and then burn that - This will ensure that you have all the correct files and no more. Demo is only 3Gb; should come down pretty qick in a few hours. - CK.

Version 0.8 Beta - Florian has nicely photoshopped out all the misc aircraft at the Aeroclub and the Cargo Areas. Looks fantastic now! - Converted Florian's edited .PNGs to .DDS at Alpha 2.2. Blended perfectly. - Added Hedgerows North West of Airport. - Added House/Clutter Objects in the reuse areas North of Airport - Minor tweaks to trellises, hedgerows, 50%-80% fill densities marked where trees were too tight. - Fixed Object and Forest Exclusion Zones on East side of airport and South East Corner. No more trees at the entrance and in the fields. - Fixed a few scenery objects to better representative ones. (FIeld objects, building objects) - Deleted some objects which just "didn't work well" in their position. (May as well leave them out, and help the FPS instead =) ) - As per Tkyler - We only have 2 more versions to "get it right". =) VERSION 1.0 RELEASED: http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=15673 - CK.

On my last flight to NZ, I *swear* the lady flight attendant said (and the end of the flight): "Attinshin Pissingers.... Thankyou for Flying Jitstar". I'm on another Jetstar flight tomorrow from YSSY to NZCH... I'll try to record it this time. =) - CK.

Brilliant. "Tower, this is Ghost Rider requesting a flyby." "Negative, Ghost Rider, the pattern is full." -BOOM- Oh... Wait a minute - In this case, it may be bzzzz, bzzzzz, bzzzzzz, bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz =P - CK.

He's like the guy who shows up at the Volkswagen Car Enthusiasts Club, with a Ford, and proceeds to tell everyone how good his Ford is. =) And everyone just stares..... - CK.

Ok, I'm opening this up to whomever wants to download it... It's reasonably mature now; but remember, it's still a WIP (Work In Progress). - CK.

Remember to get one of those South Island $1 Cookies. Tasty.

Beware if anyone tries to count to TIN. - CK.

Try Wed 1.1b3 or an earlier version. Ive heard of some kind of bug in Windows only 1.1b4 affecting curved polygons. http://developer.x-plane.com/2011/06/new-scenery-tools-worldeditor-2-0-beta-3/ - CK.

The .bak file is just a "backup" file.. i.e. the previous version, since you did an "Export Scenery Pack" full export. I think if WED saves via an "export scenery pack" it taks whatever apt.dat and xxx-xxx.dsf files it already finds and makes them "xxx-xxx.bak" etc..).. so you can always rollback your changes. Sorry youre having trouble with WED1.1b4 in WIndows. I'm usng it under MacOSX 10.6.8 and it works flawlesly. How did you guys edit it before using WED? The README.TXT file says that you loaded the whole thing into WED to fix up some poorly converted objects. - CK.

I just noticed - why do you show "VTSP" in the right hand side in WED in your screenshot? You trying to add Boston and VTSP into one package/same .DSF file? That would be an interesting combination... Some sort of Phucket/Boston combo release as 1 file.? - CK.

Just tried in in XP10 - by copying the KBOS directory into XP10/Costom Scenery/ Created a completely new project in that directory. (Deleted your old earth.wed, just so I am indeed 'starting from scratch') Imported the KBOS apt.dat Imported the two KBOS .DSFs Once again - it all loaded and worked fine. Can see all the runways/taxways/objects/layers/draped polys/etc... Interesting how they did their scenery mind you... 1 large object comprises about 400 cars in the parking lot =) - CK.

1. Loaded WED1.1b4 2. Changed WED to point to my XP9 Scenery (thats where I have my XP9 KBOS "Summery" Scenery Installed) 3. Selected "open scenery package" (turns out you guys left your original 'earth.wed' file in there from when you were making your original corrections for release... so it already had the layouts ready to go). 4. Loaded in 1 second (All the aiport layout info was there from the previous earth.wed). 5a. Selected "File> import DSF", and imported KBOS Summer/Earh nav data/+40-080/+42-071.dsf 5b. Selected "File> import DSF", and imported KBOS Summer/Earh nav data/+40-080/+42-072.dsf 6. Waited about 5 second, and voila: All there. Objects, taxiways, overlays, exclusion zones, orthophots, etc. Dunno where you're going wrong.? Want me to try it as a New Project into XP10? - CK.

P.S. What custom scenery are you trying to edit? If its a common one, I'll download it and see if I can get WED to import it. - CK.

1. Did you create a "New" project in WED in a different directory, or did you create it in the same directory as the custom scenery you're trying to edit? If you made a "new" directory for your project (i.e. /Custom Scenery/my_project): 22. Have you copyed over the entire directory structure from wherever the other .DSF was located? (i.e. any directories like 'objects/' or 'custom_stuff_for_this_scenery/"?) from the "Custom Scenery/original_scenery" into your working directory (Custom Scenery/my_project)? WED will load the other guy's DSF, but that DSF references objects and textures which are located "relative" to the other guys' working directory. In orer to sucessfully import, you will need to ensure that the DSF can find the objects it's reffering to. The only oblects you do not need to copy, are ones which are in the XPlane default Library (lib/airport in the hierarchy) , or OpensceneryX (assuming you have that installed in your main /Custom Scenery/ directory, which your current project is inheriting) - CK.

Ignore the HTTP errors. That's just XP10 checking for updates. The crash indicates win.xpl as a possible culprit (the plugin). Thats all I can surmise. - CK.

Slick! - CK.

I dont quite understand... Arent you seeing the runway edge lighting, and the Calvert Aproach Lighting? (See below): Do you have your own landing lights on? =) (The Archer III that I like to fly in lights up the scenery very nicely), see below: - CK.

Agreed with you Steven. The solution (to delete log.txt) makes no sense... as that file is an output only text file, overwritten every time you start XP. Something else must've changed... oh well, it shall remain a mystery. However, things arw working for AeroFiles; so we'll leave it at that. =) - CK.

The scenery designer might not have put the correct attrbutes on the ground. Which Airport? (and if it's a 3rd party scenery, which one) - I'll have a look at it in WED. - CK.

Andy, I think the grass needs mowing at the Aeroclub.... 0.5 now out. XP10 ONLY For now. - CK. P.S. Once this project goes "final" I'll make a back-ported XP9 version (by effectively removing all the XP10 specific stuff). Won't look as nice, but would be friendly on the framerates.

XP10 Only it is. Have now added in all the new XP10 style lighting and effects. HDR For the Win: Florian has send me all the fixed tiles too (no more pictures of aircrft on the tarmacs). I'll put together another release soon for us. Also added the new parking garage (via an XP10 only facade), and a few more buildings (again, using XP10 only facades) - CK.

Few more shots. Im seriously considering dropping XP9 compatibility and flusing out the scene with all XP10-style lighting/facades/objects. Would there be any resistance if there was no XP9 compatibility? I assume that most have gone to XP10. Tom, as the 'inside man" with LR, is there any push to keep 3rd party support for XP9 anymore, or is it all 'full steam ahead' w/XP10? - CK.

A little small - 108 bytes. Dont think that's the movie. =)
