I know when they are activated as I have the freely available Operators Manual for the AH64A. It would be nice to get the correct sounding warnings but I may have to get creative
I know that it's "Bitchin' Betty" as voiced by Erica Lane, if that helps at all. But I wasn't able to find any examples this morning.
K9NSP: Please post more details and if possible tell us the folder where the scenery is installed and the TSC file as well.
It's all airports without an ICAO, but we'll stick with the S78 example in Idaho for now.
Path to S78 is C:\Users\order\OneDrive\Documents\Aerofly FS 2\addons\scenery\k9nsp_Idaho\airports\Region 3\S78
TSC for S78 is attached.
The one exception to the above statement is the OXBO airport. Also non-ICAO, but it does show up as being available.
Path to OXBO is C:\Users\order\OneDrive\Documents\Aerofly FS 2\addons\scenery\k9nsp_Idaho\airports\Region 2\OXBO
TSC for OXBO is attached.
IPACS Support admin Prior to the update, I had non-ICAO airports working perfectly. Now they are gone. I've followed the naming updates above and they are still missing. Using S78 as my example, I renamed it US_S78. It's still missing.
Where exactly is this? Can you show us the coords?
Actually, the reason I can't find it may have to do with the fact that I've updated elevation mesh since that photo was taken. It may not be a problem anymore. And it may have never been an IPACS problem. I'll take better notes should it happen again in the future, but I wouldn't lose any sleep over that picture above. It's from custom scenery that is very much still being developed.
Where exactly is this? Can you show us the coords?
I thought I knew exactly where this was, but I can't find it this morning. It may be that I'm lost, or it may be that it only happens in VR and/or the helicopter because I'm just zipping by in the F-18 this morning (without VR). I don't have the time to dig deep with the helicopter this morning. But I'll try and find it at a later date and get back to you.
But custom scenery and elevation is involved. So it may not even be an IPACS problem. I simply don't know yet.
The Google resolution in the Fork Salmon River area (44.97570 -114.73509 ) is fantastic!
We are all looking forward when K9NSP will have ready this whole area.
Region 3 might make it out in time for Christmas. Region 2 has problems, and the others haven't even been started. But I will be offering a beta preview of the KEUL airport in the not too distant future.
I found some floating trees today. It's right at the edge of the scenery I'm creating for Idaho. You can see my scenery in the foreground, and the AFS2 default scenery in the background. The trees are floating in the AFS2 default scenery.
I've not yet made any effort to determine if my scenery is causing this, or not. This is the only place that I've seen any anomaly's, and I've been working on this package for months.
Here's a sneak peek at one of the airports that will be included. This is KEUL, and the airport itself is currently available on fscloudport. But without the scenery there isn't much to see or appreciate.
I am working on an elevation mesh for Idaho (nearly ready) on a basis of 10m 3DEP data.
Are you interested K9NSP?
I might be. I'm currently using 1/3 arc-second DEM and I'm not sure how that compares. But if it's better it's definitely worth it to repackage it for my scenery.
Also, those Hawaiian Islands look great. I'll have to give those a spin sometime.
I'm working on a scenery pack for the entire state of Idaho, starting with Southwest Idaho. Here's a preview of what I have so far...
With the release of MSFS, this is becoming unlikely. AFS2 can't be a MSFS competitor. AFS2 will become a niche product, so the question is, on what niche do they focus.
Nah. MSFS is full of problems; it lacks VR, and while the world is there, it's not terribly accurate. It's just autogen, for the most part. And no helicopters. I heavily prefer AFS2 to MSFS, and I do own them both. I'm still making my own scenery pack for Idaho for AFS2 because it's noticeably missing, and the MSFS version doesn't even remotely look right. MSFS has the area all green and covered with trees, and that's just not what it looks like.
If you are interested, you can see a preview of my work here:
Please explain the process that you do to get the error. Are you running the latest version of Aerofly FS2 and Steam?
A recent update to Steam seems to have fixed it. I no longer get the error if I open with Steam; and I can once again open directly from the Oculus Library in VR. So, for me, it's all good.
I would argue that it is NOT fixed at all. Having a band-aid is not the same as a fix.
Display MoreSo I logged into Steam today and i can't start AFS2 on my Oculus Rift DK2 anymore. I know it's old but It works fine with every other VR application (War Thunder, IL2...) and up until 3 months ago (last time I checked) it worked great with AFS2 (over 300 hrs on it).
if I Try to start it in Oculus VR I get the "AFS2 does not support your currently active headset" message, if I click "OK" the game starts in VR mode with Oculus Home but the Headset screen is dead. I can start it in Steam VR mode but the performance/ tracking is awful and it makes it unplayable.
Can somebody please help ? I'm heartbroken, first my airline career is destroyed by COVID19 and now I can't even fly my favorite flight sim
Maybe it's an update issue, is there a way to downgrade the game to a compatible version?
Thanks for taking the time
EDIT:
I Fixed the issue by deleting the main.mcf config file in the Documents/ Aerofly FS2 folder.
I still get the error message but if I press "OK" it works perfectly fine! No need to downgrade.
Same thing happens with my Rift S. So it's not the age of your headset that is the problem. Steam VR isn't a suitable substitute. For now, pressing the OK button is the best solution. But it would sure be nice to see it fixed. This hasn't always been a problem. An update along the way appears to have broken it.
