Terrain on the fritz at RDU

Terrain has gone crazy around RDU in v5. I don't have anything else installed that should be conflicting with it, that I'm aware can conflict.

Thank you for that, there was a change on the mesh for that area with the default P3dv5. We will have to update KRDU in the near future to fix that.

That's what I figured was the case... the default RDU and several other airports appear to sit up on a kind of platform in some places. They aren't flush with the surrounding terrain. Poor choice on their end, I think... should've just left that sort of thing up to the developers!

I also noticed a handful of default objects left behind. I just popped an exclusion over them to take care of them, but you'll want to be aware. I noticed some of my own scenery projects weren't excluding default buildings as well.

Thanks a bunch!

Thanks for the info, but I thought I excluded most of the things, which were left at KRDU?

I saw one of those new radome library objects buried halfway in the parking garage, and also a rogue fuel tank. Not sure what all else. I'll have to get a screenshot of it later. Also, v5 LOVES to place random radio antennas so be on the lookout for those :lol: :lol: :lol:
