Mega Airport Ben Gurion - Issues thread

[ageva 77]

Hi all,

 

To make it much easier for David and I to write down and fix current issues, please write down it here.

At the moment we are aware of:

* Config tool not working

* Manual is blank

* Add-on.xml for P3Dv4 might be indicating "scripts" folder and not "script" folder

* SODE - because the config tool is not working the workaround to get the files manually copy. Please browse  C:\ProgramData\12bPilot\SODE\xml and you'll find there subfolder called "2 sode jetway options" - just cut/paste the xml file you want (with or without VDGS) to C:\ProgramData\12bPilot\SODE\xml

 

I will edit this thread with workarounds and open issues until Aerosoft will submit an update.

 

Thanks,

Amos

Hotfix is out, just run Aerosoft Updater to get 1.0.1.0

This will fix the config tool and bring the real manual.

Hi,

 

something still is wrong with the update. Before installing it I had jetways. After installing the update and running the config tool once the jetways were gone.

 

After having a closer look into the SODE folders I found the "Ben Gurion 2 sode jetway options" folder. Only after manually coping one of the two included files into the SODE\xml folder the jetways showed up again in the sim.

 

The documentation doesn't mention this manual set, and also the config tool doesn't offer a VDGS on/off option to copy one of the two files properly for me.

 

[David Rosenfeld 141]

Yes as for now that's the solution and it will be fixed

The hotfix deleted the SODE files related to the jetways....
I'm attaching the two files VDGS/non VDGS - just download the one you need and move it into C:\ProgramData\12bPilot\SODE\xml

 

We will ask Aerosoft on Monday to fix it.

Using non standard characters like #

I think I would not recommend into the xml it should be normal characters only for lines of path and name

you would be correct if it was part of the attribute parameter, but it's fine if it's part of the value.
in our case it is part of the value, not the attribute (the value could be anything, it's a descriptive name)

how did you determine there is no Autogen? what part has no autogen? can you send a screen shot?
there are few Autogen sections in this scenery that are controlled at different methods/config files. in order for us to be able and detect the part you having an issue a  screenshot of the location would be grateful 

[David Rosenfeld 141]

ILS30  very close to touchdown  I deliberately did this Engle  that you can see

No Autogen in picture all building objects in circle around airport perimeter gone?

 

[eialrokach 1]

Is there any chance to add to the configurator option to remove the photoreal around the airport?

Hi

First of all, thx for releasing this long awaited scenery. In the past, I found out, that Autogen entries in the xml causes issues with ther dev. i.e. Justsim, Godzone etc.

In the past, I always deleted the Autogen entries out of the xml and moved the autogen folder to the same place whre the scenery and texture folders of the corresponding Scenery are located. With this, I always was able to see the different autogens from various developers worldwide.

After installing your Scenery, Autogen in 29 Palms and all Justsim Sceneries are missing again. Doing the same procudures with your Autogen folder brings me back the autogen of other dev. but then it's missing in TLV.

Kind Regards

Patrick
