• 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.

That is not the PAPI4 you have selected. What you have selected is a object which is the little square box that has turned yellow to the left and bottom of the circle. You have covered up the property window that would give more details.

The stock CYYC does not have any type generic or library objects next to any VASI/PAPI's at CYYC. What is showing on your grid has been added and the PAPI4 is not in its proper stock location. Was it added by you are from some other Utility Airport program.

Did you move that PAPI4 to its present location

I also notice you call it a PAPI01. There is no such type PAPI in the SDK. The VASI /PAPI's at CYYC are PAPI4's or VASI22's. The FSX SDK only allowes (and selectable in ADE) the following

PAPI2 (2 light PAPI)
PAPI4 (4 light PAPI)
PVASI (Pulsating VASI)
TRICOLOR Tri Color VASI
TVASI colored VASI in a shared-‘T’ shape
VASI21 2 rows, 1 box/row
VASI22 2 rows, 2 boxes/row
VASI23 2 rows, 3 boxes/row
VASI31 3 rows, 1 box/row
VASI32 3 rows, 2 boxes/row
VASI33 3 rows, 3 boxes/row (far row has only two boxes, 8 light system)
BALL (presently remapped to PVASI)
APAP (panels)
PANELS (presently remapped to PAP2)

Regardless of the PAPI issue your error appears to be related to a library object thumbnail issue (lines 3 and 4) based on what you have selected on the Grid. I can only speculate and Jon will have to be the one to actually decode the error.

Jim is correct this relates to the object selected. Can you please attach (or email me) the file called ade_200806.log. This will have a record of what you were doing at the time and what went wrong
 
Thanks Guys for your replies.

Sorry for the confusion Jim, it is the PAPI Library Object that's causing the crash.

Jon I've attached the log here.

David - you have the log setting on DEBUG - that might slow your ADE down somewhat
