Marshaller not visible - head only
« on: February 12, 2012, 10:40:32 pm »
I flew in to two different airports this weekend to test GSX and I only see marshallers head, the rest of the body is not visible. Don't even where to start troubleshooting this?

You probably have the "Advanced animations" option turned off in the FSX graphic settings.

GSX Graphic Settings? Where is this option? When I access 'GSX Settings' from the menu all I get is Timing and Audio settings. What am I doing wrong?

As usual, always include which gate you selected, otherwise it's impossible to understand the problem.

Return leg from KOKC to ORD. Everything fine through the flight, I arrive at B12 at ORD not only to no marshaller but to no buildings too.

If you were able to call GSX after landing at KORD (otherwise you wouldn't be able to select the parking in the first place), it means that everything ran correctly so, the only possible reason why you didn't see buildings at KORD, is that you still have the old version, GSX requires to use current 2.0 update, which is a free download.

If, instead, when you landed at KORD that wasn't any GSX menu, that's an entirely different issue.

I can bet I have the ORDv.2 installed. How can I confirm this?

Check if the sim.cfg in the Simobjects\Misc\FSDT_OhareX folder and the KORD_sf.bgl in the fsdreamteam\OHareX\scenery folder are both dated 2011

Both folders show 2011.

Are you sure you were able to call the GSX menu in a empty KORD ?

This can only happen if you have an old version of it, or you don't have it installed at all, which seems very unlikely.

I was able to do this yes. The message displayed that the marshaller was dispatched to gate B12 or something like that. Should I perhaps reinstall GSX?
