• 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 Autogenerated Airport Terminals

Hi guys,
I have recently switched to ADE 1.78 and all the installation worked fine and except for the autogenerated terminals the rest seems fine.
Here is my question: trying to improve stock SKRG I placed some new buildings taken from the Airport Objects list. When P3Dv4.5 opens at the airport, they perfectly show.
This does not happen with the autogenerated terminal that came with the stock SKRG airport. The parkings with their jetways do show but the autogenerated terminal does not.
Appreciate your comments because when using ADE 1.76 this did not happen and I have had the same problem when trying to modify other airports
Thanks and regards
 
You mean you used one of the buildings out of the local OBX27290.BGL file? If you used a different OBX file it will not appear at that airport.
 
No this is not what I did.I did not move the building to a new airport. I added new buildings to the stock SKRG that I took from the airport object list, left the autogenerated terminal building in its place( {19652947 -3573-4E9C-9D05-03C73405149C} saved it & compiled it.
When the airport opens in P3Dv4.5 the Aurogenerated building does not appear, the parkings and the jetways are there, however the buildings taken from the Airport Object list do show.
 
This may be geolocked. If an object is in the same bgl file as the code placing it then it will not be possible to use it at another airport unless the model file is extracted from the library.
 
Can you please tell me what does geolocked mean? the autogenerated object is locked? If so can it be un locked?
And yes I know the difficulties of changing an object from one airport to another.
And again this is not what I have done. It is exactly the same airport SKRG from the stock list that has this Autogenerated airport terminal with its parkings and jetways that when opened in P3Dv4.5 does not show it, and other objects that I added from the Airport Object list do show?
 
This did not happen when using ADE 1.76
Cheched another airport that was on my airport’s in ADE 1.76 and the same thing happen. The Autogenerated terminal does not show when the airport is opened in P3D 4.5
Just wondering if I could have done something wrong during ADE’S 1.78 installation? As I recall I placed the settings so that ADE 1.78 will recover all of ADE 1.76 settings and then copy & pasted all airports that were in MSFS-FS Design tools-Airport Design Editor 175-P34-Proyects to ADE’S 178 same path, and when I now look for them, they all there.
 
Can you please tell me what does geolocked mean? the autogenerated object is locked? If so can it be un locked?
Geo-locked means that the model and placement is contained within a single bgl file.

{19652947 -3573-4E9C-9D05-03C73405149C} doesn't exist on my machine so must be in one of your addon sceneries.
 
Now that is strange that the indicated Autogenerated does not exist on your machine George because unless I am mistaken if one opens a stock airport from ADE if it comes with an Autogenerated object it is bacause it is on ADE’ S list? I definitely did not place it there.
As far as I know the only addon that I have that could be creating this is Traffic Global, however I do check before saving & compliling an ADE airport, and if it is there I just take it out from Traffic Global Scenery. But it was not there.
Today I opened another airport from ADE Stock airports list MROC in San Jose Costa Rica. This airport has an Autogenerated object, that is its main terminal with parkings and jetways. Did the same, saved it & compiled it. When I opened it at P3Dv4.5 the Autogenerated terminal does not appear, only the parkings and jetways are there .
 
Hi,

I loaded the default P3Dv4.5 SKRG into ADE 1.78 (production release). The building is present in ADE {19652947 -3573-4E9C-9D05-03C73405149C}, it's the semicircular terminal. I moved the parking structure from the parking lot to the ramp to prove that I am displaying a modified airport in P3D. I compiled it and moved the ADE BGL file into an active scenery folder. As you can see the terminal is there:

So I don't know what your problem could be...
 
Yes! I can see it’s there, so why is it that I am not seeing them? This is going to drive me crazy
 
Well guys let me tell you that after receiving Tom’s post I started to check and found out that my FSDT software was unchecked on P3Dv4.5 so where scenery objects, why? Who knows because I did not do this. So I proceded to enable them and Autogenerated Objects and Parking Airport Jetways came back. Anyhow sorry to have bothered you, but in fact it it wasn’t for Tom’s post I would still be lost;););)
