• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

P3D v4 Jetways in the ground with SODE V1.7

Helllo all,

first of all I have P3D V5 (and not V4).

Using SODE placer I have installed couple jetways some time ago in one of my scenery (working well in P3D V4). Having just installed the lastest version of SODE (V1.7) I followed the recommendations to modify the ALT info in the xml. So all my "0.0#AGL" or "0#AGL" were replaced with just the "0". Now I have my jetways into the ground by 1 or 2 meters ...

I probably made a stupid thing but if someone can point me to the right direction it would be helpful

Thanks in advance

I would probably bet it may be do to the way that flattens work on v5. I had to re-do some flattens from scratch due to sunken objects. Do you have access to the scenery master AFCAD? may be worth a while to try to regenerate the flatten (ASL vs AGL).

Well, it had to do with the alt info. In fact I probably misread the instructions and put all the alt to "0". In fact only the probe altitude must be in this format. All the other altitude information for each jetways (or probably other objects as well) must be at "0.0#AGL" . As soon as I reintroduced the "0.0#AGL" all my jetways went back ....
