• 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.

ADE9X feedback

What can I say,so far. Installed the new ADE, installed FSUIPC4, connected FSX to ADE, added a building, compiled. No problems. Great!

Now, I have FSX on one computer and FS9 on another. No plans to have both on one box. Any chance of not having the "Choose FS Version" box come up if I don't need it? Not a big deal. However...

A good chance :) It is in the list to bring this up only if both sims are present.
 
I did not have time to test until now, but will it be possible, to compile for a FS-version that is not on the computer?

Example: I build a scenery for FS9 (which is on the computer) and like to do a "quick and dirty" version for FSX (which is not on the computer) by only changing the compiler?

If this IS possible, I assume, that I have to have the respective SDK on the computer ...
 
when I start ADE9x I get following message:

"Die Eingabezeichenfolge hat das falsche Format"
(Inputstring wrong format)

after choosing FS9 with "OK" click.

Any Idea?

best regards

Yes. This is the problem that comes sometimes with the country settings. Please change your settings to the UK or US. Then run ADE for each version of FS that you have. Once complete you can close ADE and change your country settings back. It should then work fine.

At the moment you do need the FS copies available on the machine because ADE reads data from them. We are looking at ways to make it possible to use ADE on a machine without FS installed. Obviously this does make some limitations.

Thanks a lot,

I have a German Vista 64, but an English FS9, sometimes such problems happen ...
 
Sorry if this has been asked before but if you have the latest 'alpha' version already is the new beta version any different besides the fact that it is also for FS9?

There are some differences in that we have been dealing with problems loading AF2 files and those changes are applicable if you wish to modify AF2 files for use with FSX.
 
I have never had problems with modifying AF2 files except that if they do not compile straight away you can easily find the item that gives you the problem and reintroduce it, and that is it.
So I guess I can stick to the latest 1.40.09.

Thanks

Then you have never had to deal with an AF2 file where the original designer has renamed or deleted a runway with stock ILS :)

Yes there are some differences. In the future when we update ADE it will be for both FSX and FS9 in one download. You can still use your ADEX version now but you should consider using the latest version that will include both FSX and FS9. If you do not have the FS9 Sim then ADE will understand that and only open FSX type airports.

We are trying to stay simple in the way we update ADE. All updates will be for both FS9 and FSX in one utility and then you choose which utility you work with.
 
its me again

I tried to change settings (altitudes from meter to ft), but I get this error message:
