• 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.

Dull question probably, but can you add an airport to a country that is not in FSX as a stock country??
 
Hi Folks

Richard -
Generate the xml using a different country name.
Manually edit the xml country name.
Compile.

PS
Which country are you adding,
also which ICAO please ?

Why don't you try it?

Generate the xml using a different country name.
Manually edit the xml country name.
Compile.

There is no need to look at the xml. You can use anything as a country name when creating a new airport in ADE:



and the .xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<!-- Created by Scenery Design Engine (SDE) on 13/02/2008 -->
<FSData

Hi Folks

Richard -
Borneo is not a country.

Borneo is a geographic island,
and is divided between several countries, Brunei, Malaysia, & Indonesia.

Please see - Borneo

Unfortunately MS only 'state-ified' USA, Canada, Australia.

Try looking under those countries for the airport name or ICAO.
What was the ICAO you'd intended creating ?

If the ICAO is not present,
please add it under the appropriate state.

e.g.
for an Indonesian 'State' (Province).
West Kalimantan
Central Kalimantan
South Kalimantan
East Kalimantan



George -
My apologies
I should have checked that first.

Hi, yes, you are of course correct. I have my dull hat on at the moment.
I am putting together an event for my club and having just got into ADE and SBX I thought a "jungle strip" event might be a good idea and away from vatsim [for this anyway]
I had thought of just clothing Indonesia in jungle and then creating a couple of remote strips.
Probably what I will do is select an existing stock airport [somewhere in Indonesia] for departure and create a remote jungle strip as a destination.
Perhaps to pick up someone or deliver something, along those lines anyway.
