GSX L2 Jetway Models missing
« on: October 06, 2018, 10:32:51 am »
Hello,
I have tried the GSX v2 at the Trial Areas. During customization i figured out that
1) All Thyssenkrupp Crystal Jetways look  strange, not as the one at the Photo in the configurator
2) I can't choose any colours / liveries, it stays default all the time, even with the Thyssenkrupp steel jetways


Thanks for your help
Using FSX SP2

Here are the Screens
Screen1(ex1): green line says it should be blue livery
Screen2 (ex2): left is thyssenkrupp two tunnel steel, right standard replacement
Screen3 (ex3): left ist thyssenkrupp crystal vs right standard

You see those models are quite the same!

The only thing strange is the replacement blue livery not appearing. There's nothing wrong with your other 2 screenshots, the jetways clearly looks different from default, and they looks like how they are supposed to look like.

The preview thumbnail is not individually customized for *every* size variation, but only for the general model. So, it's normal they might look a bit different.

--> Thank you, but that's not a solution at all. Can you suggest one?

When I look at these screenshots, the Jetway's look different than mine, especially the glass. Can you tell me which model that is? And I can't find the equivalent model without glass.

EDIT: After more testing, I have to appologize, the different models DO work.

Only 2 things I wonder about:

1) Still the liveries (blue, red ..... ) don't appear
2) Glass texture is NOT the one from the screens on your page
3) NO Gate Numbers - within the editor there is no Gate Number to show up, the preview stays white all the time

That's because you use FSX, but we took screenshots in P3D4, which renders transparency much better than FSX.

Quoting from GSX manual, Page 46, which explains the "Gate Number":

This feature use the new “Render To Texture” ( RTT ) option, only available in the P3D4 PDK, so it’s not available on FSX or P3D 1/2/3.

Jetway Numbers using DX11 (Prepar3D 4 only).
- Meh- sorry for my stupidness.

Still there's the Problem with the liveries / colors!

I just wanted to say it's a great experience and although the futures are limited in FSX, I'm not regretting buying it!
