KeithHodkinson 0 Posted January 4, 2022 Share Posted January 4, 2022 Hi This is a brilliant tool in the package. However, I have recently run it (after running makerwys first) and notice that some of my airports are missing on the map. I ran it with the option to include all scenery (not just the ones currently enabled). I have over 300 airports so it's not easy to work out a pattern to try to establish the ones not showing. However I strongly suspect that it's all the airports that use the xml method rather than scenery.cfg. Could you please explain the logic of how this works and if there is anything I can do to fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer Capt. PERO 398 Posted January 4, 2022 Developer Share Posted January 4, 2022 Can you pls send a DebugPack and the XML-File and let me know which airport is missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Proudfoot 231 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Hello Peter, Sorry for jumping in on someone else's post but I have the same problem. Debug pack attached. In short, I followed the instructions and makerunways ran and created the info which now appears in GE Pro. But for France there are only 5 airports listed - LFBO, LFML, LFMN, LFPG and LFRS. I own all these airports but I was expecting all the default airports to be listed too. There are several hundred default ones. Does the process import those too? The reason I want to have all airports available is because Google decided to remove airports from GE Pro and despite writing to them about it they haven't replied. 20220106-12h40m29_SIMstarterNG_DebugPackage.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Proudfoot 231 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Hi Peter, I think I've discovered the reason most default airports haven't been exported. This setting in Addon Organizer. I'll turn it off and try again. Please login to display this image. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Proudfoot 231 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Hi Peter, that didn't fix it. It seems only addon airports are exported, not all the default ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise it would end in showing "a lot" airports in Google Earth. Your Screenshot comes from Lorby but the SIMstarter Google Earth Export works 100% independent from Lorby and was the first kind of its art.

Ray Proudfoot 231 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Sorry about the confusion. What do you think about filtering default airports that have a runway length of 5000ft or greater? Google Earth used to show a great number of airports until their management decided to remove the feature. All the more bizarre when you consider it has a flight simulator feature!

Developer Capt. PERO 398 Posted January 6, 2022 Developer Share Posted January 6, 2022 I could show them in a different color and added this as a feature request. Lets see how much affort this takes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
