• 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.

Old Rways, aprons and taxiways still showing up

I'm working on improving O68 airfield and after drawing the new taxiways and runways I can still see parts of the old one. I removed everything except the comms, windsock, and beacon towers before I added anything and after compiling to see how it's looking I get double taxiways and an apron which I haven't added yet which tells that fsx is reading both airports and showing everything from both of them. How do I fix that so it only shows the airport that I'm working on? So far I tried to use the polygon tool to no avail. The circled items should not be there.

I have the default and the one I'm working on, I thought when you add an airport to the Addon Scenery and make active the default one would turn inactive. I have no duplicates in the Addon Scenery.

In ADE (version 01.76.6715 or others) go to TOOLS and use "File Priority Analyzer" to see which files will be used to produce the flight sim image.

Please tell us what you see in this tool.

In sims later than FSX O68 has had it's ICAO code changed to KMPI and you appear to be using P3D from the earlier thread . Are you sure you do not have an airport using the new code? If your default airport is O68 then it appears you are using a modified APX file?

The index of airports used with P3D is the same as FSX. I am updating the P3D indexes.

This default airport was modified by https://www.aero.sors.fr/navaids3.html update, its icao was modified also to KMPI but ade can't find either airport to open (O68 or KMPI) so I uninstalled this update which restored it to the default airport and now I was able to open it and save it and then I reinstalled that update again and started modifying it but ade will not allow me to change the icao because it's greyed out in airport properties I think you just found the problem. It's loading both airports because it thinks they are different airports.

Correct. An ADE airport with a different ICAO code will not exclude the other airport. You must edit the other airport, removing everything from it, and compile that into an active scenery folder.
