#FLIGHTGEAR 3.4 SCENERY NOT DOWNLOADING UPDATE#
#FLIGHTGEAR 3.4 SCENERY NOT DOWNLOADING WINDOWS#

I reinstalled Flightgear a couple of times on diffent computers and different Windows os (7 64bit and 10). Flightgears TerraSync is somehow not downloading any scenery wether I start it via the launchprogramm or standalone. If you did not get a reponse, even after 7 days, you may want to check out the FlightGear mailing lists to ask your question there. Forum rules In order to help you, we need to know a lot of information. An addition, I should mention that, as I understand it, generating a scenery tile takes hours rather than minutes. I am using Flightgear 3.4 because it works for me the problem ist the same with the new 2016.x. Installing FlightGear, add-on planes, sceneries etc. That will allow scenery to appear in front of you as you fly along. AppImage binary release for Linux x86 systems.

#FLIGHTGEAR 3.4 SCENERY NOT DOWNLOADING UPDATE#

Download FlightGear 2020.3 for Windows (versions 7, 8, 10) or update from an earlier 2020.3 version using the updater. I do now that some island have been updated in the TerraSync scenery, but otherwise, as it would require regenerating entire continental landmasses in one run to not get seams, that has not been done. Hi BRAVO-KH, All you need to do is go to the 'Settings' page of the 3.4 Launcher and click on the little square in front of 'Enable automatic scenery downloading (TerraSync)'. Download FlightGear 2020.3 the latest stable, supported release for free. Highlights in this release include frame-rate improvements on some systems, reduced memory usage and enhancements to the built-in web. This new version contains many exciting new features, enhancements and bugfixes. I observed this in versions 3.6rc and 3.7, both of which used Terrasync normally yesterday. The FlightGear development team is delighted to announce the v3.4 release of FlightGear, the free, open-source flight simulator. Then it launched and flew fine, as long as I was over previously-fetched tiles. Also, due to how the tools do it, there will always create visible seams between the scenery tiles if they are not made in the same run. Perhaps a new issue, but today FG would not load, hung at the loading scenery stage, until I unchecked Terrasync in the Launcher. Unfortunately that also means that to update an airport, that entire tile have to be remade. When the mesh for the scenery with the current architecture is created it takes input in the form of landcover data, roads and railways, a digital elevation model, and airport layouts (and probably some more stuff) and output meshes for each scenery tile with all that encoded into the materials for each triangle.

This would make updating airport layouts much, much easier in the future. due to network problems, there might be no ground for the aircraft to be located on. The scenery architecture in development (World Scenery 3.0) aims to not encode the materials into the mesh, but rather drape them over the mesh. FlightGear loads scenery on the fly and if scenery cannot be loaded, eg. The mesh encodes the material to be shown, for example deciduous needle leaf forest, industrial areas, or concrete apron. With the current architecture the scenery consists of a mesh of triangles and 3D objects placed on it. To build on wkitty42's reply, the thing holding back scenery updates currently is the scenery architecture.
