I would hazard a guess that we would all require a lot more information than that!... ...!

Example: "Please help. I have a lot of problems tying my shoe laces up"... ...!

Paul... ...!

Could we have more of a discriptction? Maybe some pictures... More words?

Maybe they're under attack?

Blacked out scenery, whited out scenery could be indications of your graphics in the process of updating to put together the scenery it is reading. Having incorrect settings in your flight simulator that differ from the designers created settings for reduring, can cause the scenery to display improperly for prolonged periods of time. You ask yourself was the scenery designed in 10m, or 5m, or 1m resolution, was the scenery intended for use with autogens, these are just a few of questions I ask myself before I use any add-on scenery. Knowing how the author created the scenery now allows me on my end to set appropiately if I so decide to use or even look at. Then I can come to a conclusion,

whether or not the author did a good job of creating the scenery or not, or the file is corrupt. How much work are you willing to put into it. It's not just a plug and play flight simulator especially when the add-ons start going in, there are people that just add and expect the add-ons to work. Get in contact with the author let this person be aware of your problem, who would be more qualified to answer your question(s). Good luck hope you get it figured out, let us know what happens, we enjoy a story with a happy ending. As always these are just my expressed opinions.

He is not the only one, there has been an issue on this download containing blacked out boxes, almost as if it were from a payware demo. Here is a post about it:

Forgot, scroll down till you see the post with the 3 pictures of ktpa

1. Simviation doesn't have this scenery
2. We've had trouble with a Harry Patten scenery before and had to delete it.


.... I think he needs to get beta testers before releasing.
