• 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.

FSX Airport not loading changes in FSX

Hi all, i'm having issues with a project i'm working on. I have made a first version of Reus (LERS) which complied fine (Eventually) and loaded in FSX with no issues in the end. I have gone back in and made several changes to the airport and compiled as I did before to the Addon Scenery folder, and removed the original ADE Generated files. FSX appears to load the new files but when I go to select the airport in FSX it the Stock FSX Airport. I've checked my Scenery Manager and other Graphics Settings but I'm at a loss. If anyone can offer me any suggestions please. Thanks !

I think we need a bit more information here, are you working from the ad4 file?
Are you doing a normal compile or a split compile to get an object bgl (2 bgl files) or an xml file
what are the original generated files you removed? does your new file not overwrite the old one?
Reus is a small airport so should compile easily, what do you mean by eventually?
try compiling to your desktop then copy this bgl file to your Addon Scenery folder
we may need to take a look at your ad4 file with your changes

Yes I am working in a AD4 file, I have tried normal and split compiling of the Bgl files, to both the "Addon Scenery" folder and to the desktop and then moving it. I removed the previous version I had updated a few weeks ago as I changed the file name so it did not over wright. I initially had an issue getting GP lines to compile correctly which is what I was referring to by "eventually".

Have you checked that the Addon Scenery layer in the Scenery Library is present and checked as Active?
