• 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.

    P3D v4 Exclusion Rectangle Disappears after compiling

    It sounds like you are loading and saving the airport via the bgl file. You should not do this. You should work only with the ADE project file(.ad4 extension). In terms of the way ADE compiles. You can get a single bgl file that contains the airport facilities and scenery (objects plus...

    Airport scenery BGL

    There are no runways showing since there are none in the bgl file. There may be runways at the airport but they are not stored in the bgl file. It contains a few bits The CVX bgl file contains terrain data which ADE does not read. The stock airport contains all the runways and other...

    Airport scenery BGL

    Your screenshots are very hard to see but it seems that you have the zoom factor for the display set very far out. CVX files cannot be loaded into the ADE display. Please post the two bgl files you refer to above so I can take a proper look

    MSFS20 MSFS Airport Extractor Beta 0.1 - A Little Program to Extract an Airport for Fixing

    Fair point. ADE originally used this but changed to Patrick's decompiler when the developer ceased support. As Dick says Patrick is still active in the community.

    MSFS20 MSFS Airport Extractor Beta 0.1 - A Little Program to Extract an Airport for Fixing

    Great stuff! ADE can extract a single airport from the stock files. There has been an issue where Asobo moved the location of stock airports. As I recall ADE 2021 HF5 fixed that but perhaps since then the stock files have been moved again. The the two way editing function in ADE allows the...

    Converting MSFS2020 scenery to P3DV5

    No. There are too many differences in the source schema. Some elements are more or less the same but plenty are different

    MSFS20 Missing start location in ADE project

    As I recall there is a bug in ADE for checking runway starts. I am away from my dev computer but I seem to recall that Asobe changed the way Starts are handled.

    ADE Wish List

    I think you are referring to being able to draw exclusion rectangles at different angles. This is not possible due to the way FS works. Exclusion rectangles can only be created with a heading of zero, Thus aligned North South

    MSFS20 ADE crashes after build

    There are a lot of logs coming in which tend to get held until I get time to see if they are new issues or not. Perhaps you can re-run the process to get the error then zip up the log and post it here. Logs should be in the Logs folder inside the ADE 2020 install folder. A new log is...

    P3D v3 This is getting frustrating

    Can you post a project that shows this issue. Runway transparency is in later schema for BglComp. If a project is created in a version (eg FS9/FSX etc) then that property will get into the XML. If it is then loaded into a version that does not support the transparency attribute then the...
