Fixing LIRN RWY

[Nicola]

Here's a video showing a landing in LIRN: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nxwi2PrbE8

Add-on scenery Napulevola LIRN-X v0.2 is freeware from http://www.napulevola.it/.

The runway seems disconnected, judging by the wheels bouncing on the surface and by the lack of tires smoke at touchdown.

After releasing 0.2 not sure if the developer is working on a fix.

I wanted to give it a try and perhaps give my contribution to this very fine addon.

Unfortunately, I have no idea what's cauing the problem and therefore I don't know where to put my hands.

Does anyone have any clues?

I don't want to change anything in the scenery. I just want to fix the runway for my own use. Of course, I will send it to the developer and give freedom to use it in his work, if he wants to. For that, I don't think I should ask permission to the developer, or should I?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Cheers
Nic

Normaly there is an AFD under the groundpoly that the was obviously at this scenery.
Maybe he made something wrong in there, so download ADE and take a look. Or he did it via "hardened polys".. then.. cant do anything(-> ask dev) but i dont think that this is the case. (cause there is no reason for that)

Also interessting is the fact that the wheels are bumping but you dont have the dust.

Thanks for your advices. I will have to look at the files. The probloem is that I am such a novice at working with BGL files that I may not know what I am looking at ... LOL ...

Tyre smoke is an effect which comes with the aircraft model itself. Either the effect is implemented or not.
The bouncing wheels are caused by the RWY surface type (Macadam) I guess.
This could easily be changed by selecting a different surface type (e.g. Asphalt).

Thanks!

The aircraft model in the video is payware from iFly and the tyre smoke shows when landing in other airports.

I will see if I can manage to change the RWY surface to Asphalt.

That was pretty obvious ... , but I have to admit that I don' t really know if the effect shows on all different surface types.

I will see if I can manage to change the RWY surface to Asphalt.

Problably there isn't runway under ground polygon, look at his Ade file.

 

[littleMax]

I took a look ...

There realy is an Macadam runways in the AFD file. 100points for hotelfox.

And just because it was easy(changed to asphalt)... see attachment (no guarantee):

Hi Max,

Thanks! I tried changing Macadam to Asphalt or even Tarmac. No improvements

The problem may be elsewhere!

in between LIRN 1.5 was released.

The bumpy runway problem still exits, but there is a solution.

Claus-Peter (cpsassen), a user of a German flightsim forum (www.forum.flightm.de) provided a replacement file for
LIRN_RwyLights_FS9.bgl and gave me the okay to upload it here...

Thank you very much, Guenther. However, the issue mentioned in this thread was related to v0.2 for FSX.

And, it appears that the Scenery developer has addressed and fixed the problem with their v0.3 (Here)

LIRN 1.5 for FS9 had a bumpy runway on my pc ...
(Whatever they write on their page ...)

I tested it many times when I searched a way to solve the problem.

The LIRN_Rwy_Lights_FS9.bgl had a surface of "A7", which caused the problem. The replacement has a surface of "FF".

I cannot say anything about FSX ...
