Screw this light at Kingsfield

[Motion_Blurz]

Can this thing get removed?

(pretty please )

That is a really odd placement!

Did you tried the "remove objects from map" thing? I never did it, so it is just a guess...

Can you give the exact location?

Hi.

Precise location:

N:35 00 708

E:33 42 626

Elev: 276

And for size comparison, here is a picture fith a AH-64 close to it

 

[Callsign112]

Thanks, I just wanted the location so I could fly into it with a plane that has a damage model to see if anything happens. Whats even funnier is there doesn't seem to be any other street lights close by, just that one.

[Hiob]

That looks like leftover from the developers messing around while testing the map....

Other than that I can't imagine a reason to randomly drop a streetlight there....

HI.

I have no idea (really), but I guess it some kind of routine to automatically place "civilian items" when developping the map. but nobody saw this one!

Cheers.

If you are willing to edit the mission, it is easy to make it disappear.

Drop a trigger zone on the offending light pole and then create a MISSION START trigger that uses SCENERY REMOVE OBJECT ZONE to remove it.

Aha. that's the idea!.

Hi.

And yes, after 10 seconds, the pole desapears.

I had to do that 10 seconds delay, because the "at mission start" wasn't doing the trick.

Saludos.

Strange. Mission start worked fine for me. Glad you got it working. 

[smire666]

Maybe that pole was reason for the threshold-displacement, check the RWY marks

[Zeagle]

Yes, many airports have displaced thresholds for those types of obstacles. Our runway in college had a displaced threshold for a powerline. I distinctly remember many close views of that powerline. I would leave it where it is.

There is an almost identical situation at Haifa as well.

The displaced threshold is obviously there for the road. You don't want to be dragging your gear into delivery vans. Also, in the image above, which is so blurry you could not even see a pole if it existed, there are what appear to be trees near the red mark. I would be willing to bet that those trees are every bit as high as a light pole.

[trelos57]

no light pole in Kingsfield and those ain't trees but bushes as far as i know. There should be no obstacles there.
 

video proof. A bit old but should be the same today. 

[Raviar]

Good luck if Ugra Media response or fix it ! 

[Napa]

Yeah they seem pretty inactive, unless they have to market new content.

[Recoil16]

It's reported

So it will be fixed then finally?

I've misplaced my crystal ball, so I can't say. I certainly hope.

[Raviar]

meanwhile you can define a Zone and use triggers to remove all objects in the zone, so put it in the very tiny small zone and remove it, I dont think they will anything before releasing of Normandy2

There's similar obstacle on approach to RWY21 at Beirut, I believe. If you follow the ILS GP you'd be scraping the roofs of some of the buildings once you're passing through approx. 1000'. 1 Dot low and you're toast...

 

Very annoying...
