I have this grey "rails" along the taxiways. The picture shows. I do have Direct x 10 on but when I turn it off the Scenery gets Totally messed up and there is no more scenery. Also above the taxiway lights there is a triangle above everyone as you can see at TFFJ and it is see through but when I look through it , it blocks the fences and buildings. i'll put other pics in of it. It only happens in Dawn or dusk and night.

The problems in your screenshots are all the reasons TNCM isn't DX10 compatible. Ground polygons don't load the night textures in DX10, thats why they appear grey.

The only solution in this case is DX9. If your reason for not using DX9 is specifically "the mess" you get at this airport but nowhere else, please post some screenshots what happens in DX9 mode as I'm more likely able to figure those out and perhaps solve them.

In the case of DX10 and the airports not listed as DX10 compatible (see http://secure.bmtmicro.com/servlets/Ord ... CID=1228/2) there is no solution unfortunately.

Ok ill try it thanks a lot

Still idn't working I installed Directx 9.0 and still no difference also have another plane that doesn't show up properly without Direct x 10 same with the scenery. If I don't have it on it won't show up at all. I never had this problem before with this scenery after I installed it 5 times on previous computers and hard drives. Anyways if you can please tell me the steps to get back on track or a link to the right Directx download. thanks

You don't have to install DX9 at all. All you have to do is switch Off the "Direct X 10 Preview" checkbox within FSX's Display Settings.

If you have the same problem meaning the ground is grey at dusk/dawn then your FSX is probably still running in DX10 mode. Note it needs to be restarted for this DX switching to take effect.

If you have other Addons like planes that don't work in DX9 but only in DX10 mode, something must be messed up within your system (drivers etc?). I'm not aware of a single FSX addon that is designed for DX10 and behaves problematic in DX9.

Ya when I turn it off then the scenery and my plane both go totally off and messed up so maybe i should reinstall fsx :S anyways thanks.
