Issue with Runway number marking

[+GKABS 8,789]

I have been having this issue with the runway number marking if I look at it from a left angle, for example, it looks good but the minute I change the camera angle to right it looks underground. overall they are all at 0 levels in max.  the texture is jpg for all my files and I have tried the tag and BMP but is the same.  Please someone tell me what I am not seeing.

in Max

in-game 

also this direction marker

is the runway region (the terrain) completly flat?? As in the "flatten airfield" function of the terrain editor.

What little I know of MAX (and it's VERY little), is if it shows correctly in your view, it should (the operative word!) be ok in game

I've seen that "floating" number thing even on stock runways when the terrain is not flattened

Yes the terrain is all flat at 88

I have done that before and I just redid it just in case but no luck. I ever shorten the runway with no luck too

The terrain may be flat, but that does not suffice. You need to make sure that the tag value of the tiles is set to 0, you can see it via TFDtool. If tiles' tags are not set to 0, you can easily tweak the values with the latest version of TFDtool.

I just solved the problem just made the box flat.

Yes you are correct, all 4 titles are set to 0

Perhaps a TAG issue. Check in TFD Tool if TAG is =0.

I already mentioned this, please do not repeat things. It is not a tag issue, gkabs confirmed it.
