Photo scenery made but loads slow?

sandonl · November 8, 2021 at 6:58 AM

Hello

My problem is the new photo scenery created only loads small square areas when I fly it pops up and then disappears when I pass by it.

The total scenery is only 6.32 gb

The area is not huge although very detailed 19 lod.

Is there anything I can do to make it load the whole scenery file at one time while in the sim?

I used this great freeware tool called AeroScenery.

It has made a wonderful Photo scenery for Aerofly FS2 .

My computer is very powerful with 32 gb of ram .

I'm not quite sure.

But I had this Problem too. But Did you made one big (Size9) tile or many smaller ones?

If you made the many smaller ones I would first get one big tile(not that high res.)

And then just put the other smaller and high res. ones just in the same folder.

It is many files all in the same folder.

The level 19 tiles are only loaded at very close range and you can't load all level 19 tiles because of the memory size that would take. Try adding more tiles of lower resolution e.g. 15, 12 and 9. These stay loaded at greater distances.

Press "choose for me" in AeroScenery, so all available lower AFS levels are automatically generated too.

If you download only a portion of a tile 9, it hereby will select only the higher zoom levels with smaller coverage.

The selection of lower AFS levels will prevent the late popping of tiles. Even ortho scenery from higher flight levels will be shown properly that way.

I will try this "Press "choose for me" in AeroScenery" Thank you so much for your input!

Hi, I tried to create own scenery with the aeroscenery tool. I tried with Google and Bing as well and in the process chain I get an error at the tile download step in the log file. I did everything in the settings like in the tutorial video from YouTube (pilot in design) somebody with the same problem. Any solution. My hardware is a working station with xeon processor and 32 GB ram. Thanks for help.

Thanks a lot - will try. I wanna create a bit of my home scenery in Hamburg. Unfortunately I found noth in the file base map about the beautiful Hamburg? Is there somebody out there who is able to that or can share this area with images and cultivation. This would be awesome!

The Hamburg area should be found here:

Hi Thanks,
for the answers. If I understand right the map and the grid in the includes pictures - the scenery just touches the north border of hamburg in the pack which is mentioned above and this in the files 6 and 7 - 11-13 is the area of Rügen and Usedom?!. So if nobody already did the scenery of hamburg. I will try my best to get one on my own. If the result is fine - I will share this here. I also read that there was already a convertion of the EDDM airport via X-Plane 11 - org filebase. Does this work well with just regarding the tutorials? My goal is just to built my hometown airport in this beautiful SIM!
