Some bldgs are sunk into the ground on some hills but that's to be expected with the Outerra engine, not bad enough to warrant a fix, just looks like some are built into sloping ground.

Ok, this one is normal (for the big city at least), I haven't leveled the terrain for these yet. It will be done at some point, because it will also help to remove trees for those who are using different forest settings.

Thanks for the feedback :)

Yep, since its gotten so quiet, I have been checking other things, but except for the already mentioned buildings, there is nothing bad to report. In fact the recent update seems to have added a bit of efficiency to Outerra, so I have actually notched things up a bit.

The Alps area is fine. Still slight hesitations near Talkeetna. I'm beginning to doubt I will ever find out why.

By the way, in the full Talkeetna download, I think you may have missed this: World2XPlane > houses > EU > AT

Was getting a warning that it didn't exist.

Talkeetna use too much different models for a single location, too much detailed for this purpose too. As a result, it's not optimized as LFNA is, because the engine have to load/unload complex packages all the time. In LFNA, the model set is the same for all the scene, so Outerra doesn't have to load anything except the World2Xplane ones. And of course, these are really simple objects.

Thanks, I need to go back to Talkeetna at some point and fix a few things (and add KW71 bridges...)

Great job, Acetone! You have surpassed yourself with this scenery!

It would be nice to have tree objects to plant (even if they are only billboards) to make avenue roads or parks or things like that.
It's a pity, texture resolution from buildings does not quite match world detail.

Thanks 2eyed :)

So, nobody sees the huge road spike at the north of Gap (the big city)?

Nope. And they are not called road spikes. They are orbital towers. say it with me slowly....

I didn't see anything as noticeable as that. I'll see if I can't replicate it in a few minutes but something like that would definitely caught my attention as the big city is where I spent the most time flying around. Will report back shortly, but my guess is it's not there.

Ok, searching very carefully, I found it. It appears to be invisible from most angles, though........

I was wrong, Yes it is there but like the poster said above it is invisible until you hit just the right spot, then it pops in to view, I will continue to fly around a lot more keeping an eye out for things but still over all great job on your work.

If you take off heading south from the airport(near the big city), go past the lake there is a large hill to the south of the lake, on the other side of that hill is a road,look on that road( towards your front left front) there is another tower, not as tall. I Don't know how to take a picture of its location in the oculus.

Yep, that's an other one :)
I already fixed several of these before but it require to destroy the local road data so it may be more difficult for these (longer roads). I will find a solution :)

Thanks guys :)

Have you tried to delete a couple of node on each side of the spike and at the spike itself, and then recreate them?

Hopefully the issue of spikes is one of those attacked in the new road system.

 ... im sure of it ... once they will be able to generate roads from open data on global scale, it would be a needle-ball if not.
