• 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.

Hello
this is the SCASM code of my runway:

PHP: 
; ENRA
Area( 5 N66:21:49.7326 E014:18:05.5511 12 )
    LayerCall( :lblLayer 24 )
    Jump( : )
:lblLayer
    Runway( N66:21:49.7326 E014:18:05.5511
            Altitude    69.8
            Heading     320.0
            Length      2857
            Width       98
            ID          32
            Surface     -1
            Markers     0
            Threshold   0
            Lights      6
            ThrLightsN  1
            VasiSlopeN  4.5
            VasiSideN   98
            VasiDistN   608
            VasiSpaceN  0
            VasiBarsN   A
            ThrLightsF  1
            StrobesF    5
            ThrOffF     49
            AprLF       3
            VasiSlopeF  3.0
            VasiSideF   98
            VasiDistF   559
            VasiSpaceF  0
            VasiBarsF   A
    )
    Return
EndA

Looks fine. In this case I've disabled the approaching light as I would add the type SALS. Referring to the SCASM manual (http://www.scasm.de/doc/sca_fs9ext2.htm#aprlig) I would put this code in order to have sals:
ApproachLights(1 SALS 0)

Compiling the code, SCASM throw an error and it says that "1" is not recognized as valid parameter. I tryed all combinations but without success. Any hints?

Hello,

dont know if it will help you - but it might help someone. There needs to be a proper header command for SCASM compiler to compile the BGL with FS9 properties.

Code: 
Header( 0x201 )

Add this to first line, should compile. But you need to make whole code as for FS9, not just one segment. I have not had luck with FS9 style lights over FS8 grundpoly. Maybe they are like AF(CAD) lights.
