What addons do you have installed? Any of them payware?

Your missing terrain files for the area, in particular those that draw the coastlines.

1-Have you installed any terrain add-on for the area? If so maybe you missed some files. If you installed and then removed a similar add-on have you forgotten to restore some default files?

2-Have you installed any terrain add-ons for other areas and maybe, by mistake, removed some wrong files?

If yes to 1- then have a look at the add-on's install or uninstall instructions to see what you might have missed.

If yes to 2 or if neither apply- For the missing default coastlines in your second screenshot look in the ...\Scenery\Namw\scenery\ folder for the default files; HL915150 and HP915150.

If they are missing you can restore them from CD#3\MSGAME8.cab.

If there are other missing coastlines we'll have to determine the files involved.

you guys rock!!!  Thanks Dave.  That fixed the problem.  I found some other  files listed with the .bak extension but I think a scenery I have has made the changes there.  I do you know where a bgl goes?  Is there some utility to look it up?  Thanks again,  I knew Id get help here.

Thanks,
Sean
