You're missing the .bgl file(s) that define the watermask. For that immediate area that would be ..\Scenery\namw\scenery\HP915150.bgl. (There may be other files involved, but this is the one causing the square lakes)

Have you added (or removed) any scenery that provided local

At that time [1909] the chief engineer was almost always the chief test pilot as well. That had the fortunate result of eliminating poor engineering early in aviation.

hmmmm...I can't think of anything installed that would do that.

I won't use auto installers, I install into a 'new folder' then I manually install, I even place the new scenery name in the scenery.cfg file to keep it in order.

Anyway, I'll fetch those items from the cd to fix this area, and look for any other areas that are messed up.

Thanks Dave :)

....A few minutes later!

The problem was the Columbia River Gorge scenery. Used the default file backup  gizmo and it's fixed.
