• 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.

FSNavigator checksums? (Valid=)

Hi all,

I've written a simple VB program to convert Navigraph SID/STAR data to FSNavigator .ss file format. It's really just a stop-gap until Navigraph start releasing the data in FSNav format but I've run into a problem: the .ss files in FSNavigator appear to contain a checksum field, usually 3 alphanumeric characters that render the file useless if changed

Airport]
Valid=xyz

[EOF]
Valid=xyz

If anyone knows how to generate the field I'd be grateful. I'm more than happy to share the source code for my program but can't share the data as it's dedicated payware. Hope you understand.

All the best

Ian

ps I've written to Helge but have so far received no reply. I'm never sure nowadays whether that's a reply in it's own right or whether the recipient is away or too busy to respond. Hence this posting!
