• 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 FSXPilot keeps missing the runway

Has anyone here ever used FSXPilot? It's a stand-alone third party autopilot program that gives you a little more control over the autopilot that comes with FSX. However I seem to have a slight problem. I can get the AP to follow the correct flightplan, but when it comes time to land on the selected runway, it lands with no problem, but it lands before even reaching the runway and sometimes actually crashes into a tree or something. I've tried a short approach, and a normal approach, both do the same thing. This used to work fine, but suddenly it no longer does. I'm landing at a Home-Made airport. I've added the ILS and markers and everything that should be there. I made the airport with ADE, is it possible that there is some setting with the ILS that is causing the aircraft to land before reaching the runway? I've updated the AIRAC in FSXPilot to add the new airport, but it still lands before reaching the runway. Has anyone used this program before and knows what the heck is causing this problem. Do runway markers have any bearing on AP landings? Should I try removing the markers and see what happens? I'm stumped. I like FSXPilot mainly because it has a little more control over the AP and is easier to adjust the controls than they are in the FSX program itself, plus creating flightplans is a lot better with more control over waypoints and such. I just want to fix the runway landing problem.
