• 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.

Hi,

I have searched the forum and FAQs etc, but cant seem to find a way to fix my current issue. Posted is the error code. Any help would be appreciated. I totally admit being a basic user of ADE.

Parse complete!
 
You apparently have two ILS's named ISE? Remove one. If not, another VOR or ILS is duplicated. Remove one.

Check this with the Lists/Navaids menu.
 
One is the orphaned one which I can’t do anything with. Can’t edit it, so I’ll try changing the I’d of the live one. Thanks.
 
I can't change IDs on any of them as they are Stock.

Just because someone has labelled something as "Stock", doesn't mean it can not be altered with the right tools.
Have you tried the good old-skool "Hexadecimal Editor" approach on your Stock object/file already?
- Backup to original file
- Open the copy and do a string search on that ID
- Change this into something workable again and save it again?

Here are a few free HexEdit articles and tools to get you started :

Sorry for the dumb question. Which file am I going to open? It isn't a bgl because it wont compile, so is it the ADE project file?

There are "no dumb question" Trooper63 (only bad reply-ers / teachers), since every question only serves the purpose of expanding one's own knowledge to grow.

I totally admit being a basic user of ADE.
What is the program your screenshot has been made? Does this screenshot come from inside ADE itself?
- If yes: Then you first need to find out which of the "stock-airport" input data-files contains this ILS-data which now causes the error
Once you have located that file, you can use a hex-editor and alter the ILS data into something else
 
Instead of a hex editor just use Tools/Raw Data View (requires ProKey but that's free now). Drill down into the airport (click the triangles) until you find the orphaned ILS and change IsOrphan (or whatever the line is) from True to False. Do the same with IsStock if it is True also. Then you hopfully will be able to delete it.
