Countries not in FSX

[richard64]

Dull question probably, but can you add an airport to a country that is not in FSX as a stock country??

Hi Folks

Richard -
Generate the xml using a different country name.
Manually edit the xml country name.
Compile.

PS
Which country are you adding,
also which ICAO please ?

Why don't you try it?

Generate the xml using a different country name.
Manually edit the xml country name.
Compile.

There is no need to look at the xml. You can use anything as a country name when creating a new airport in ADE:

and the .xml:

I wanted to add Borneo which is part of Indonesia which is in FSX.

Thanks guys.

Hi Folks

Richard -
Borneo is not a country.

Borneo is a geographic island,
and is divided between several countries, Brunei, Malaysia, & Indonesia.

Please see - Borneo (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Borneo2_map_english_names.PNG)

Unfortunately MS only 'state-ified' USA, Canada, Australia.

Try looking under those countries for the airport name or ICAO.
What was the ICAO you'd intended creating ?

If the ICAO is not present,
please add it under the appropriate state.

e.g.
for an Indonesian 'State' (Province).
West Kalimantan
Central Kalimantan
South Kalimantan
East Kalimantan



George -
My apologies
I should have checked that first.

Hi, yes, you are of course correct. I have my dull hat on at the moment.
I am putting together an event for my club and having just got into ADE and SBX I thought a "jungle strip" event might be a good idea and away from vatsim [for this anyway]
I had thought of just clothing Indonesia in jungle and then creating a couple of remote strips.
Probably what I will do is select an existing stock airport [somewhere in Indonesia] for departure and create a remote jungle strip as a destination.
Perhaps to pick up someone or deliver something, along those lines anyway.
