No scenery objects with TerraSync

Postby TheEagle » Fri Nov 26, 2021 10:35 am

Hello, I'm having problems with TerraSync and the scenery objects. I have enabled TerraSync, but I have no scenery objects at SAWH any airport since yesterday. Everything else (osm2city buildings, streets and pylons ad the terrain) is loading fine. I got some checksum errors in the console:
Code: Select all
223.15 [ALRT]:terrasync  Checksum error getting dirIndex for:w070s60; expected 9c3915b88c0fb02ebd3cde386c2989714df83e7e but received 638e35de7214af5462f96f31a0dd7430dcbde489 url()=https://cdn.merspieler.tk/terrasync/Objects/w070s60/.dirindex

Why do we need these checksum checks for AC and STG files ?
I also observed my TerraSync/Objects folder is empty (apart from the .dirindex and .dirhash files). I already tried deleting the contents of my TerraSync directory (apart from the shared models), which did not have any effect.

If it matters, I'm using version 2020.4.0 AppImage.

Well, they can't be loaded as the Objects subdirectories do contain models but no STG file referencing them … no STG file at all. merspieler, are you planning to destroy Flightgear's core ? :mrgreen:

I have sent a message to the mailing list to look into this. I experienced it the first time at Wednesday evening (European time), when suddenly the airport buildings at my destination airport didn't load. I had flown from that airport on Tuesday, and then everything was normal. OSM buildings and scenery objects in custom scenery are loading fine.

because if they are different, then we know your local copy is out of sync with the server... since it is out of sync, we transfer the needed files or delete those not on the server to re-sync your local scenery with the server...

"Why not?" said Gurder.

I just found out that I don't have any .stg-files in the Terrasync/Objects folder anymore. Is it possible that they have been deleted on the server?

Something screwed up in the scenemodels export. Torsten D has triggered a manual export, which should fix the issue over Terrasync in the upcoming 24 hours. Thanks for reporting!

today I tried to fly from YWLM (Williamtown) and get OSM-Buildings & roads but no terrain, just water. The error reads:

Code: Select all
failed to update entry:Path e150s40 status/coe: checksum verification error/6


the same happens at YSSY

Getting similar problems since yesterday.
Some scenery objects are present (masts, power lines, some buildings), but they are in the 'ocean'.

There are some checksum errors on TerraSync.
If the checksum isn't correct, FG will not load it.
