Er!k 572 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Hello Aerosoft, First of all many thanks for this wonderful scenery! I really like it! Unfortunately the AFCAD is a mess (especially if you want to use it with AI aircraft). Some issues are: - missing taxiways - wrong designators used - no type assigned to parking spots (gate/cargo etc.) - hold short nodes too far from the runway causing AI to stop and not move anymore. I see this more and more often with scenery developers. Very good scenery, but a lot of work is needed on the AFCAD afterwards. Most of the time I fix the issues myself, and so I did for Prague. In the attachment you will find an updated AFCAD (use at your own risk, and back-up any old files before use). This one took me almost 6 hours of work (!) with help of the latest charts... I hope Premek can include this in a future update. Changelog v1.0: - Added gate types (gate, cargo, mil_cargo) - Added airline codes according to their terminals including a special code for the Emirates A380 (UAES) - Fixed all hold short nodes - Adjusted runway starting points - Added taxiways (E, M, Z) - Renamed taxiway P2 to P Changelog v1.1: - Added parking code for KLM (KLC was already available) - Changed starting point of RWY 12 LKPR_ADEX_XHT_DFLT v1.1.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premek 276 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Many thanks Erik! As I had some medical checkups today, I'll be at my computer on Sunday and will look at it. Premek Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarrianCZE 84 Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Me and my friend are working on a fix for ILS RWY 12. You are able to capture the ILS only at 8 DME, and there are also incorrectly postitioned DMEs themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a table that i have passed on to these forums a few times now that lays out all the correct radius sizes to best allocate your AI positioning on the gate.

Er!k 572 Posted May 14, 2016 Author Share Posted May 14, 2016 Thanks Bradley and Juergen! I have changed the radius accoring to the sheet you provided. I also noticed that no pushback directions are in the AFCAD, so GSX won't work. This will be the next step...

Very nice of you! Yes, I agree completely with Richard/WebMaximus! I've made a mental note of this thread and will be sure to use the corrected AFCAD file provided here, when I buy this scenery (alhough I think I'll wait a few days before buying, and let them solve all the installation problems first...)

A32X and 737s are a 19.1m size not 18m AIG Aircraft Radius by Type.xls this table seems to add a few feet in needed parking Radius to each aircraft type - eg. FAIB 737-800 has a wingspan of 117.42 ft which would lead to a "needed" parking radius of 17.89 (18) personally I like to use that "extra" meter to "attract" or "disattract" aircraft to special positions (e.g. 18m at the gates, 19m at the remote positions) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetset 9 Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 Hi Erik, just a quick one. I tried your new AFCAD File and after my first approach into LKPR I recognize that from MS ATC side I get only visual approaches for all 4 runways. Makes no difference when I change the wind for example and i checked if there is another AFCAD in use but it is not. Only one...any ideas what might be the issue to get no ILS Approaches? There is also no possibility to change as there is only Visual Approaches availalby by ATC. Thanks in advance! Cheers Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs masterhawk 799 Posted May 16, 2016 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted May 16, 2016 Hello, until Er!k releases a new version of his AFCAD, I did a fast and dirt ILS 12 update of his v1.2. I changed the range from 10 to 27NM, changed the DME position to the glideslope and centered the ILS localizer. I compiled it with P3D 3.2 SDK, because my FSX SDK gave me an error. You have to try, if it works in FSX. LKPR_ADEP3_MS v1.2.1.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
