• 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.

Can you please give us some step-by-step instructions how to execute your fix? Thank you very much in advance!

Sure. Here's what you'll need:

1. BGLViewer which you can get here: http://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/threads/bglviewer-for-fsx-bgl-files.432840/
2. A Hex editor. I used notepad++ with the Hex plugin added to it.

To do the fix follow these steps:

1. The file you need to edit is called Runway_markings.bgl. If you open this file in BGLViewer and expand "Section ModelData" and "QMID", you'll be greeted with several FSDS_objects. The one we're concerned with references threshold_stripes.bmp file. It should be the 10th FSDS_object from the bottom.
2. What we need to change is the bounding box data; specifically the Y max value under the BBOX header which should be 0.6096. BGLViewer can only read the data, so we'll have to change this using our hex editor.

3. Now you're probably wondering, how do I know what value to change it to or what to look for in the hex editor. If you select any other FSDS_object and check the Y max value, you'll notice 0.3408 is used, so that's the value we need to set it to. But we now need to know what to look for in the hex editor. In BGLViewer, we need to change the view to raw data. By selecting "Raw Data" under "View" or using "CTRL+R", BGLViwer will now display the raw hex data.
4. Now we need to find that FSDS_object again, it should be the 10th one from the bottom. It's Y max value should be, "BF 0E 1C 3F". This is what we'll have to replace in the hex editor.

5. Now we need to get the value for what the change the above to. Selecting any other FSDS_object should give you "BF 0E 9C 3E". This will be the value we'll change the above to.
6. We're on the home stretch now. Open the Runway_markings.bgl file in your hex editor of choice and do a find a replace. We're searching for "BF 0E 1C 3F" and replacing with "BF 0E 9C 3E". It should modify 13 entries. Hit save.
7. Reopen your newly modified bgl file in BGLViewer and look for the runway threshold FSDS_object. It should be the 10th from the bottom. Hit CTRL+I if you have switched back from the raw data view. The Y max value should now be 0.3408.

I really like this scenery, the runway markings seem to be floating though as well as some flickering with the default runway and taxiway underneath the textures. I also had to redo the photo scenery since there were no night textures for parts of it. Hope fully you could have a look at the floating runway markings? Maybe add SODE to it in the future?

Fixed the floating markings by editing the bgl with a hex editor. I edited the runway grooves to show up as well.

I would also like to download this scenery, but Dropbox, as always, tends to make downloads temporary. Any chance that you may share a new link for the download? (I get the 404 error whenever I try to open the link)

Yes, it actually did. :p So he is actually the RWY26 Simulations scenery developer: "Welcome to RWY26 Simulations. Flight Simulator scenery by Gerome Bodden." Thanks for pointing that out!
