Ensure you don't have any other third party athens sceneries or afcads installed. These can prevent the bridge from working.
Restarting FSX might help if this is the first time it happened.

I'm not sure about the lights. Have you tried another plane?

Try changing & reloading the mesh settings back and forth, to see if it kicks the bridges in. I've had it appear flat once or twice. Unless you actually selected the wrong option in the installer? You'll need to re-install & select correct option.

The reflectors have LODs which might kick in to early if zoomed out. The Microsoft LOD system is based on 'pixels on screen' not 'distance to camera' like it should be. A horrible system.

Anyway, I've attached new reflectors without any LODs. They should render from any angle, zoom lever or distance.
Only side effect is they might flicker a tiny little bit in the distance.

Can you post your Order number or Order ID so I can rule out a bad version?

Thanks for reply
I tried the file but still the same
I also noticed that there are no shadows on the bridge, is that can be fixed?

I think you are using FS9? That file is for fsx so probably wont work. The shadow i recall does work on the bridge but not perfectly. It might have different results in fs9. I dont have fs9 installed right now to confirm it.

What is your problem JMD? The Taxiway reflectors have a patch above.

If you have a flat bridge, re-install the scenery & make sure you tick '3d bridges'.
Setup your FSX Mesh resolution setting like the manual says. 5, 2 or 1m
If three's still problems, it could be caused by third party terrain, afcads or old scenery you forgot to un-install.
Reboot it.

My problem is flat bridge and yes I read PDF.
I have no third party terrain or afcads.
The problem persists.
