• 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.

    Hi, I'm struggling with MSFS STAR/SID/APPROACH procedures on a "built from scratch" airport (french military airport not referenced in game). For now, SID/STAR have been done and appear correctly into the sim. But, when I click on my custom approach procedure, the game crashes to desktop...

    ADE FLATTEN & CHANGING AIRPORT ALITUDE

At south end of the airport I have an altitude of 541.5 feet at north end an altitude of 589.5 feet. Either altitudes have been...

    MSFS Adding custom materials - not supported yet?

    Scruffyduck, as far as I understood, there is no way yet in ADE to add custom runway/apron materials the way that the internal tools allow, am I correct? I read the manual's section on the materials/surfaces and it looked to me as if only what's already present can be changed around. Please...

    P3D v4 Default parking spots do not appear in P3D4/FSX

    I've made an AFCAD for SACO airport, based on real charts. However, despite setting all parking spot lines as visible, I was never able to make them showup in FSX'SE. After switching to P3D4 and reading that the parking spot and the taxi path leading to it must not be perfectly lined up, I...

    ADE PAPI Spacing

    Hi all, I am having trouble with ADE, the spacing option for the PAPI lights doesn't change anything in sim. I have changed it from the default (80 I think) to 5, yet the spacing remains the same. Something I am doing wrong? Images attached, appreciate the community help :)

    ADE FSX to P3Dv5

    Is it possible to compile ADE projects for P3Dv5 when you only have FSX? When someone tried out our FSX scenery in P3Dv5, he saw default buildings on top of our current scenery which is not ideal.

    Cannot Generate Detailed Footprint (Solved)

    Noticed that the latest development version of ADE no longer can generate detailed footprints for custom library objects even when I have detailed footprints enabled (can still see detailed footprints for default library objects). I don't know if this is something wrong with the program or maybe...

    ADE ADE doesn't recognize Network Drive

    Hi Jon, I know this is probably an oddball issue as most users likely work from a standard HDD or SSD. However, I have found recently that ADE 1.76 has issues recognizing network (NAS) drives. I recently migrated all my projects to an external RAID setup, which is set up as a network drive ( S...

    ADE SDK File Queries (FSX)

    I downloaded the latest version of ADE for FSX (I have the original non-deluxe FSX version). Knowing that ADE needs the BglCompiler and Shp2Vec program files to work, I downloaded the P3D SDK files that would also be compatible for editing airports in FSX. (And it did work.) But after...

    Scenery conflict

    I am using P3D 4.4 coupled with EZDOK 3, FSUIPS and have used ADE to fine tune airport taxiways. I have used Sketchup to model 3D objects and then convert them with MDX for placement with IS3. For some weird reason whenever my Wichita scenery goes active, aircraft engines shut down or will not...

    Hello @scruffyduck I found that when I load a high-resolution image in ADE I get one of two things: 1) it gives me a message box saying that the image exceeds 70mb so I click ok and it loads 2) it just stops working (when the image is really detailed) can you please open the limit on...

    Hi! Im very new to ADE and scenery in general. I have found my local airport for fsx but I want to use it in P3D v4.4. I have used it in earlier versions of P3D v4, but now it doesnt seem to work anymore. I think I am doing something wrong with the BGL file and ADE. The thing is there is a bit...
