• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Can someone please tell me how to add addon aircraft to ADEX....
I have tried and tried to get ADEX to reconize new static aircraft i have downloaded from the web. But it dont show any new planes....
Please what am i missing or doing wrong.....
I add the plane to FSX addon scenery and texture as directed, but ADEX wont upload them for use....:banghead:
 
Hi,

Supposing you have made the static aircraft a library object and put it in a folder activated in the scenery library list of FSX, you have to open ADE, go to the Library Object manager, click on add (upper left corner), find your object, save and close. You then go to your airport, put the cursor on the spot where you want your static aircraft, right click>library object and find your static object>add, save your airport and compile.
 
Thx.Roby.....
I will give it a try....
This is like anything thats new....Discovering what you can and cannot do in it....
I have a personal built airport, plus one i am working on....They both need the eye candy in them....
 
Static aircraft using SAMM2 and ADEX9

Similar problem as trucker17. Static ac made with SAMM2 and folder placed in FSX library. Object was then placed in ADEX9 Object Manager Library without any difficulty. Even got the thumbnail. Added the object in my ADEX9 airport, saved and compiled. No show in FSX. Complexity set to Normal. I did this another six times with other aircraft. I was curious if I could even import static aircraft objects into ADEX9 so I download some static aircraft for FSX from www.kb-sim.com. They all show in FSX. So I must be doing something wrong with SAMM2. Anyone have any comments?

Click to expand...

Did you copy the texture folder created by SAMM2 to the texture folder associated with the scenery folder containing the model library?
 
Static aircraft using SAMM2 and ADEX9

Yes. I did exactly that.
I do the same with static aircraft by others and it works.
I can't get Samm2 to work for me.

Thanks, Tom, for directing me to that thread.
The library bgl and text file enables the object to be seen in FSX?
Or maybe the guild number in the text file? I missed this piece of information in the manual pdf.
Also thanks to Bob Macklin.
It's great to have Professional help available.
