Bug in EAlps scenery

Post by OXO » Sun Mar 12, 2006 11:23 am

Flying an online task last night, we found a place in this scenery where you can't fly forwards!

Map and weather conditions pictures attached.

This is the latest version of the scenery, with patch.

Deal with it :)
This way the scenery still looks acceptable,
if you would be able to fly to the flat part it would be distgusting..
Think positive, flaps negative.

@OXO

Sorry Chris, I thought you knew. I should have said something on the chat yesterday while we were there.

All Condor landscapes have a buffer zone which you can never fly into. Like Tim said, it is so you can't fly past the end of the map (like you could in early SW versions).

I was just amused that there was still lift at the "edge of the world". Previously you would mostly just sink rapidly to the ground if you tried to push past the flyable boundary.

LLC day 37 had that penalty zone there to stop us flying too near to the no-fly zone.

Airport showing through mountain

I found a bug with Eastern Alps+patch 1, not bad, but I just wanted to post it.
This happened slightly north of St. Johann: :roll:

This has nothing to do with Eastern Alps if you'd ask me...
This is a known GFX-bug.

I had this error with stencil-bufer turned on. How about you, Pascal?
As I experienced some Condor crashes I now fly with that buffer turned off and I will check soon if the situation in St. Johann is the same. :)
