Airport Zurich V2.0 ruins nearby airport

Recommended Posts

I've recently bought, downloaded and installed "Airport Zurich V2.0" for X-Plane 11.20, and it works nicely. 

 

Other Global Airports airports (meaning X-Plane default airports) works well together with Zürich, if they are far away, like Geneva (LSGG), but several smaller nearby airports, like Hausen am Albis (LSZN) or Wangen-Lachen (LSPV), now suddenly no longer have buildings.

 

Moving "Global Airports" higher up in the list than Zürich airport folders in scenery_packs.ini solves the problem (the other airports get their buildings back), but then Zürich reverts to default instead of the Aerosoft version. Is there some kind of colossal exclusion zone around Zürich airport that "kills" the other airport buildings? 

 

Log + .ini attached.

As the airport comes with a default mesh all other airports on the same tile like LSZH won't have any scenery. You could redownload the gateway airport here and place it above the Aerosoft Zürich Airport.

 

Or you use xOrganizer to deactivate LSZH while flying to the other airports.

 

If you place the entire Global Airports directory above LSZH it will always be overwritten with the default one.

Aha! I wasn't aware that it would overwrite the whole tile - that's interesting and your suggested solution sound. Thanks for the feedback - very helpful indeed!

Yes, unfortunately X-Plane does not allow to edit the mesh for just a small area, only tile by tile, and if there are more than one airports on that tile, all of them are affected.

Another possibility is to move only the part "Aerosoft LSZH Airport Zurich V2.0 c" with the scenery_packs.ini to the end of this ini file.

Part c is the mesh folder. And meshes shall be positioned at the end of the ini file.

But if you have any "global" mesh (like AlpilotX Meshes...) installed, then the zurich mesh must positioned above the global mesh scneneries.

 

Then the nearby airports are ok... and also Zurich is ok.

 

Please see here too.
