Works fine for me...do you have any other scenery installed for Eastern Europe? Make sure your NPP scenery is set to a priority of 1 in the scenery library.  ;)

P.S: Your video card seems suspect - I have heard of lots of people having rendering issues with the 8XXX series of cards.

Your shots are quite a ways (48550m) SSE from the NPP (N51* 23.52' E30* 6.09'). I don't see anything in the ChNPP_Zone scenery or default that would account for those shapes.

To me, those objects almost look like they could be improperly rendered cumulus clouds??? Try clear weather and see what you get.

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.

Look like this to me, too: it has a almost circle range (as seen in the inscreen pic) I think depending on the range that the clouds are displayed, and the objects are extremly huge; they don't look as they should be buildings.

If you can fly through those objects with crash-det. on they're not buildings  :-/

I can see what you're going for with this screenshot. Once you get the scenery working I'd love to see it!
