Hi,
An interesting feature you could add is the fact the the fire rescue team put up a score board and how the pilots landed. its in the corner of the small protruding building of the fire rescue building closet to the intersections of the runways.
Search "norfolk island airport pictures - Google Search", scroll down until you see the score board.

When I link this airport using Addon Linker I suffer a CTD when loading the sim. If I unlike this addon the sim loads fine. Something happened in your last update.

Thanks for the report. Can you recall what version you were running previously?
I'll attempt to reproduce it.

It was your latest version.

Thanks. Do you know what version you were previously using?
Unfortunately, I can't reproduce the CTD with the latest version on my development machine.

Hi there, just wanted to say that for my system, the way this map interacts with some others makes my Sim CTD.
Not a criticism - simply an observation.
I spent the past hour whittling it down and it's definitely this map that causes the crash.

same here?

Thanks for the report. I'd love to get this resolved for you.
Have you tried loading the scenery, without any of the dependencies?
I'm also aware that the elevation data does require more resources than without it.
Looking forward to hearing back for you.

On re-downloading the map, the website tells me that I already have all of the required dependencies plus they are all up to date.
Tried the map on it's own, with none of the other dependencies and it works OK.
I have some 1500 other maps in my Community folder so it's simply too big a task to ask one user to go through these alongside this map so sadly I can't use it.

Great, thanks for letting me know and sorry to hear that the dependencies are causing some issues.
I'm working on creating custom assets to replace the dependencies/libraries that I have utilised, so when that's completed, you should be able to use the scenery with no issues.
