There are some non-airport classes in default FSX that also don’t have autogen but they do in the FTXG replacement textures and thus add-ons that use these classes will display unwanted autogen. “it looks to me as if the issue with the trees on the runway is due to the Croatia add-on not using one of the default airport grounds landclass types, which don’t have autogen. The explanation from ORBX was following and I quote: Now, I also read about removal of the cvx files (a custom landclass?), which might be FTXG-incompatible. It’s not a great looking airport and is not up to today’s standards, but it is an airport in my homeland, and I simply like flying there. It is an airport I like flying to, but since the FTXG I am unable to. I have a specific problem at a Croatian airport Dubrovnik (LDDU), where trees grow on runways since I installed FTXG. The problem on the whole is that no-one’s Sim is the same! ORBX doesn’t provide an easy way to turn off FTXG (like they do with their regions), nor does it provide an easy uninstaller, so having it installed, you are left only to wonder if it’s FTXG causing the problem, or something else! I had one-two errors flying around, others have reported other errors. I intentionally said potential, so the problems show here and there. Those problems will show themselves usually in combination with other addons. The problem (or the advantage, depending how you look at it) is with FTXG, as many probably don’t even know, that it changes the core structure of the FSX, NOT following the FSX SDK, thus causing potential problems. This whole product however, doesn’t only come at the financial price, but also at another price… In a whole, ORBX produced quite a good replacement for default FSX.

They do however also replace default autogen textures with what they say is better too. FTXG replaces textures only, it doesn’t place roads, mesh, autogen or anything. The change is global, meaning it doesn’t look better or worse in any part of the world (like ORBX FTX regions products do). The problem however is that ORBX doesn’t really want to show it – whatever the reason for that.įor those not knowing what this is: FTXG is a global set of textures replacing default FSX ones with new (realistic) ones. Couple of weeks after release of FTXG, the hype has settled and more truth has been shown on the FTXG, what the product really is.
