• 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.

Question re: distribution

I just wanted to check on this to be sure (better safe than sorry). I would like to upload a revised version of my own airport creation, using an ADE-modified file. Also would like to eventually upload several FSX-default airports that have been similarly modified (e.g., military airports that do not feature any parking by default). The projects that these files are associated with are freeware, and clearly denoted accordingly. It appears from the ADE Readme file that permission would be required beforehand from the developers of ADE, hence my asking about this.

Thanks in advance,

Brian

For airport modifications, no permission is needed but a mention of the ADE utility would be appreciated.

What ADE does is instruct FSX what not to included from the default airport and what additions to include. ADE is no different from Afcad for FS9/FS2002, in that it is a utility to design and modify an airport. The creation is yours and yours alone, ADE is just the tool.
 
zip up your BGL file with a readme to let people know what you have actually done to the file,
making sure you have eliminated any faults and fully tested it,
even have someone else test it first as well for you.
go to sites such as Avsim.com or Flightsim.com i'm sure there are others........
these require a login.........
click on upload and fill in the required data form following the instructions then upload the zipped file,
both sites have administrators to help you if you have any problems uploading your file.....
