    Airport Night Lighting

    in English

    Posted

    I wonder if we will ever see  night lighting like in the attached EDDF photo. I haven't seen anything like that in any scenery, not even close.

    Just meant as something to consider for future sceneries . Please no more dull airport lighting 🙂

    Geneva Professional P3Dv5 SODE problem

    in Aerosoft Mega Airports

    Posted

    I tried the fix by Guenter and it is still not working, jetways do not move. P3Dv5 and 2.0.0.3 is installed. Sode.log has this ...

     

    [14:47:41.563] INFO SODE.FSLOOP :  - SimObject 'aerosoft_LSGG_SODE_Jetways:Gate B44' [LSGG_Jetway_Type004]. ID: 62

    [14:47:43.745] WARN SODE.FSLOOP : [JETWAY CONTROL SYSTEM] No 'jetway.cfg' found. Unable to move Jetway...

     

    Any ideas ?

    Plane keeps zigzagging when meeting a waypoint

    in Manual Flight, Autoflight and Flight Management

    Posted

    I made a side-by side comparison on my Desktop and Laptop of the CRJ in P3Dv5 and MSFS, a flight exactly parallel. While LNAV in P3Dv5 is not perfect either, in the latest CRJ version it is definitely better than in MSFS now. The main reason might be the turn radius, it is much tighter now in MSFS than in P3D. I remember that incorrect turn radius was always an issue in FSX, then carried over to P3D.

    So I'm wondering, has the CRJ LNAV being carried over from the P3D version straight into MSFS ? Looks like the now correct turn radius leads to the wrong turn anticipation now (see the screenshot above, I exactly made the same observationa).

    If the turn anticipation goes that wrong, it makes the entire turn look bad, because the lateral offset inevitable needs correction then.

    However, just a thought...

     

    Unfortunately I can't contribute with details how to reproduce this. I see the problem on every flight.

    Well, Number 23 here.

    For me it looks like turn anticipation comes way too early, then the inevitable lateral offset needs correction. Which is done too aggressive with 30deg bank S-turns. Setting it to 1/2BANK helps a bit, but then the correction often takes way too long, sometimes up to the next waypoint.

     

     That's not a new problem though, it plagues the CRJ since the first P3D version and got only marginally corrected.

    Well you talked about a configurator like a seperate application to change textures. That won't work as Microsoft won't allow to ship that application. But you can obviously change textures manually by copying them into the corresponding folders. That's what we offer here :)

     

    oh, Ok, thanks for the information. Then just making textures available here would be certainly a much appreciated compromise !

    Different scenery options are not supported by Microsoft (yet?).

     

    Oh, that's surprising, but I was already wondering why no MSFS scenery contains any configurator. So if you change textures in the Community folder, MSFS does not consider it at the next start ?

    Now if that's a real showstopper to you we can generate darker ground textures for you. However if the snow is vanished (which will hopefully happen soon ;) ) it will definitely look wrong. Up to you :)

     

    who knows when this will happen that far north :). What about putting this in a configurator, so the user can decide himself ?

    Oh, OK ! I'm new to MSFS 2020, didn't know that. I'll turn the airport vehicles off then, to see them on active taxiways is too much of an immersion killer.

    Thanks, Oliver,  and sorry to bother you with that.

    I did the check that some freeware jets, also moved the A321 B737 B747 from fsx 😐   and all works ok. some other  freeware doesn't! activate the VDGS.  of course all (not on my system) PMDG and QualityWings Ultimate Boeing 787. work nice 

    can you please give me the lists of stands and type of aircraft will check again

    David

     

     

    I could not reproduce it today, now I got indication for all I checked. Sorry, don't know what went wrong yesterday.

    So that leaves only Gate C8 with wrong indication (STOP already too far from final position)

    Ok, I will do. In the meantime you might check the one I mentioned : "at some gates (e.g. C8) they indicate STOP already very far out from the final position."  Type of aircraft is FSLabs A320, it usually works fine with VDGS.

    Interestingly, here one can see the VDGS at LLBG in action. Bit strange it was uploaded at "funny video", but doesn´t matter : https://funny-video-online.com/watch/o5z2m3q4p4v353f5n2c4j4.html

    We've increased the lights brightness, the fix will deploy soon with the Aerosoft Updater.

     

    Thank you , much appreciated. There is still a huge difference day to night, but I understand it is due to P3D limitation.

    The Lead-In Lights are very difficult to see, especially at daytime. Shouldn't they be brighter, and visible from the MDA ?

    However, I'm aware this might be sim limitation. But could they be made more prominent, e.g. by increasing and then gradually reducing the size, if one comes closer ?

    It does indeed look like the updated configuration tool files are placed incorrectly, try merging the content of the "Configuration Tool" folder inside the SimObjects folder with the original that's in the sub folder of the Cologne root folder.

     

    worked for me, too, now I have V1.3.

    Thanks
