• 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.

P3D v4 HAAB v2 Freeware for P3Dv4/5 (test version released)

Hi Magnus, Thanks for your kind efforts in working on an updated HAAB!

Some feedback for the scenery in P3Dv5 (I am aware its only been optimized for P3Dv4 :) :

  1. Aircraft sinks below Airport level
  2. No Runway lighting s LiVoanah20 mentioned
  3. GSX profile is not syncing properly I must force a reload (More of a GSX issue not your scenery)
  4. Some patches of mistextures I believe its due to the elevation
Below are some screenshots for you for reference, hope you can issue some sort of fix!

Update :cool:
I set an exclusion file in ADE over the airport and the issues seem to have been fixed. Its important to deactivate the P3Dv4 ADE file (HAAB_ADEP4_ADE.off) and replace with the below attached file

Also GSX, anyone must use the path from the scenery inside the ini file.

My issue is the GSX jetways not showing up as I tried using the path; besides that is the runway lights not showing up since I am running P3Dv4

Thanks a lot for your feedback and your work testing everything. If you allow @Jordansim I'll make your exclusion file available on my website as well. Would you mind telling me what combination of mesh/add-ons that would influence elevation you use?

@LiVoanah20 thanks for the report. The runway lights not showing up is weird, I do not recall having had any issues with that. I'll try to look into it.

As for GSXv2 I'll have to look into it as well
 
Thanks. Those were the only issues I’ve been having. Once those two things are sorted then I am good to go. Can I also confirm that there are also jetways in T1 like in the original?

Hi Magnus,

You are most welcome to use the file on your website :)

I am not entirely sure what would influence the elevation issue but I have the ORBX global base pack and I don't think that makes any changes to the elevation as I prioritize everything above that. Possibly, ORBX vector might do, But I do not own it. Also, I am aware the ORBX also have an Open AFRICA LC product however, never used it unfortunately, so not much I can offer in that prespective.

Thanks
 
Hi @Magnus , Thanks for your kind efforts in working on an updated HAAB!
And also on behalf of @Jordansim too !!
I made some enhancement on your files, such as
-Added add-on.xml for P3D v4 and v5
- GSX profiles files for V4 and V5 separately.
-I made Dynamic light at night with unique light color, the cool thing the light pole its already attached with dynamic light inside the .bgl file so if you update the airport in the future no need for new dynamic lights ;)
Also I did some extra options for V5 users to replace AFCAD update for V5 "thanks to @Jordansim.
Here's a photo for night light.

And the Whole airport files now look like this.

Here's the link with latest updates are mentioned above.
Cheers.

Any chance of bringing it to MSFS? It would be perfect to have when flying down on the African continent:)
 
@Project 79 where do you put the add-on.xml file? The dynamic lights not showing and I am still not seeing jetways with the GSX profiles unfortunately. What is the name of the file that is BGL?

From testing the enhanced files, I cannot confirm that they work on my end. GSX jetways are still missing even though the AFCAD link was placed there. No dynamic lights and as you can see the lighting does not compare to what was posted initially. Also you can see no runway lights present while the sim is set in "dusk settings"

Hi
Make sure you delete whole existed airport this file is full airport files, when you extract the rar file, just move HAABv2 to your P3D addons folder and make sure you delete any older versions. and for GSX too.
 
@Project 79 so I’ve tried it and it gotten worse lol…there’s no ramp lights at all and the place is just dark. I did what you asked me to do but it’s odd on why I’m still having issues to where there isn’t dynamic lights or GSX jetways. I’m using P3DV4 and maybe it’s working for you if you’re using V5, but I don’t know what else to do at this point

Weird !! something wrong with your sim TBH, Do you checked "Dynamic Light" on p3d setting ?
 
Yes it’s on. If you have teamviewer and see what the situation is, feel free to DM me
Sorry that didn't help. Yes I have V5, in this case I will do Dynamic light to work with V4 maybe it was versions issue. Dose the GSX worked with you ?

The GSX profiles for V4 doesn’t work on this scenery as far as I know since I tried. I’ve used other airports with dynamic lights and they work alright. I’ve had other airports that use GSXV2 and they work just fine. Also the runways lights at night aren’t there and it would prevent me from landing there at night.
 
I also noticed that there is also no PAPI for RWY 07L...
also information from Navigraph and Jeppesen difference, in one case 3 degrees in the other 2.95, I wonder where the truth is:scratchch
the same applies to the runway lighting system, is not specified(configuration unknown) which one is used there, it is probably custom...
also ILS for the runway 25R extra it is actually not in truth.

Usually they use runway 07R for departures and arrivals and 25L for the opposite depending on winds. I’ve flown out there before and can confirm
