Here is the LOD fix for the KDCA airport.

The unpacked folder should be placed in the Community folder so that files are overwritten.

Please note that jetways will remain inoperational but interiors and ground details should show up.

Have you maybe tried to rebuild SceneryIndexes and content.xml file?

Hi, so doing a Google Search I see I should delete the contents. XML file. I have made backup of file, deleted it so it recreates a new contents file.
No change for me here still no furniture or people.
I'm not having any luck googling about how to reload scenery index files for msfs.
Any other ideas?
Thank you
Cosy

Hello,

Unfortunately I applied the files to my community DD KDCA folder, deleted content / scenery files / folders and still no statics anywhere. The gates are present and the airport seems to be intact but no other objects inside or outside of the airport. I tried using the LOD hack through the DevMode- that returns some of the statics only at specific view angles- a slight turn of the head and everything disappears?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re Wig wags- it seems they are present at every large US airport. Is this not correct?

Thanks!

Guys, we wanted to provide the fix quickly before the release of the new updated version. Due to some unexpected reasons it doesn't work out, the way we expected. We will take a look into it, but it might be necessary to wait for the upcoming SU6 and then for the quickly release of the new version of this scenery.

Is the LOD inconsistency that’s pending the fix for SU6 causing CTD?

Can’t load into Washington DC with KDCA installed. I get a CTD before the load finishes.

Edit, started game in safe mode to disable all third parties content still have the issue. Can someone please try to spawn inflight right over the city and let me know if they encounter the issue?

Running into the same problem. Ever since SU5, I've been able to fly into KDCA but couldn't load into it. It would freeze at loading. Hoped SU6 would fix it but now I'm getting a CTD when I try to load into it or get near it. Tried disabling live traffic and started the sim in safe mode but still got CTD's. Tried a short flight from the FB KIAD but as soon as I approached the RW1 glideslope at KDCA, another CTD. Same thing when trying to approach RW19 from the west. Of the many payware airports I own, this is the only one still giving me persistent problems since SU5. Sure hope this can be fixed.

Hi.
If you disable our KDCA, does the sim load correctly?

Any update as to if SU6 has allowed a possible fix for KDCA or RJAA? :cry:

Yes, there will be updates for both KDCA and RJAA, probably in a matter of days.

Hi Stanislaw,

No, uninstalling KDCA makes no difference. I think it’s a sim issue, but zendesk is pushing it towards us saying to trouble shoot some windows steps because it’s a ucrtbase issue.

Found on the forums others are having this issue with KADW (Andrews AFB) and it’s 100% repeatable without any mods. Could you maybe try reaching out as a dev?
