• 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.

We have just released a patch for 1.20. This solves some bugs and adds some small extra functionality. It is available via the online-updater. Help > Check For Update. This will download a new installer file that will update 1.20 to 1.21. The changes are:

  • Fixed regional setting problem that caused failure on start up for some regional settings
  • Fixed bug that caused modes not to change without going through pointer mode first
  • Fixed undo problem when adding a new terrain polygon or vector
  • Added access to hydro polys
  • Added thumbnails to land classes courtesy of Holger Sandmann
  • Added terrain vectors such as roads
  • Unlocked 'Display Only' objects
  • Users can now set the heading of generic buildings in the properties dialog
  • Users can now choose to keep source Xml after compile

Please read the release notes for Version 1.21 before using. These will be found from your Start > All Programs > Airport Design Editor > Help

Warning With This Patch

This patch has been temporarily withdrawn. We accidently left a couple of debug only options in the release build. These are the Exclusion List and Airport Tree. The Airport Tree just shows the currently project in a tree form and does nothing else. The exclusion list displays all the exclusions in the project. Generally it is safe to single click on these but double clicking will cause a crash. So if you have already downloaded the new patch please do not use these debug features (however tempting that may be ;)) Version 1.22 will be up shortly to hide these options. They will be available in a later release but are not ready yet :)

ADE Update

Jon

Martin sorted out the problem.

It was due to a incorrect initial install of 120.

Too soon old, to late smart.

Regards
 
Rennie,

I am glad we got this sorted out.

Snuffy,

I am sure that we now have cornered your problem. You have a mail from me.
 
Jon, when I click on the help icon in the top right hand corner of the tool bar, nothing happens ?? The help icon just changes from blue to orangey colour, but no drop down menu ??Any thing I've done wrong ? Everything else on the programme working fine so far !

No - to be honest I have never seen that. If you have ADE maximised try making it smaller and see if you can get a menu up then

Well that is an interesting one. ADE in common with a lot of other applications uses an on-line updater. I assume from what you are saying that you never use downloadable weather etc on your FSX machine? Let me talk to the team about this
