FSX Scenery problem Matterhorn

Pro Member Trainee

Hi guys. i recently visited Switzerland and went to the sumit of the Matterhorn

I though i would love to include this in my FSX game so have tried (in vain) to include it)

I can not for the life of me figure out what I am doing wrong so would love some advice from you guys please

sorry if this is in the wrong topic, I couldnt find FSX Scenery thread.

anyway I have downloaded

https://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads/files/6768/fsx-italvfr-trentino-alto-adige-2m-photo-scenery/

and this

https://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads/files/6776/fsx-v3-matterhorn-photorealistic-scenery/

but get this:

the readme says:

The first thing to do - is to download the base packages - trentino is freeware
but fsfile offers other region at a very low prices - for those interested !
Even said so - if you like to use frank addons' just on their own - they will
work ! but your coverage will just limited to the addons itself !

- create a new folder in the main fsx folder called: frank_addons
or whatever you like :

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Scenery\frank_addons

inside frank_addons folder create a new folder called: scenery

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Scenery\frank_addons\scenery

extract the tofane_estive.bgl file into the :

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Scenery\frank_addons\scenery

folder

start your FSX - and add the :
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Scenery\frank_addons

into your scenery library -
VERY IMPORTANT - FRANKS ADDONS FOLDER MUST BE ALWAYS HIGHER LAYER IN SCENERY
LIBRARY THAN ANY OF THE ITALVFR REGIONS BASE PACKAGES

for example : if you installed the trentino region italvfr base package on layer
2 - - frank_addons must be on layer 1 -

that is all you need to do

Frank Italian alpine peaks use real images taken around the mountains

but i appear to have done that, i even make sures the date i fly is summer because i am sure somewhere i read its summer only . .

any help please 😞 i must be missing something :/

I have a
Krypton Z68 TURBO Intel Core i5 2500K 3.30GHz @ 4.00GHz DDR3 Overclocked Bundle

Asus ATI Radeon HD 5850 1024MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card

and 8 gig ram
my settings are

although i have tried them on full and still was no different 😞

any help would be mega sorry for long post

They may be conflicting with each other causing the problem that you show.
If you load one at a time, see how it looks then load another see how that looks etc.

Loading to many add-ons in the same area can cause problems.
Chances are the last one added is causing the problem.

with all turned off :/

perhaps i should give up 🙂

i doubt FS passengers or REX is bothering my FSX like this is it?

the readme for matterhorn says i need the base package though

If this is the only strange object it could be Microsoft's fault.
There have been over the years quite a few posting of damaged default scenery.
