• 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.

MSFS20 ils lost

I created a new project to add ils, vor dme, lights on vllb stock airport....

1) I added lights, no problem

2) I added vor dme ( 116.60) but the airplane dosen't read it ,but on ADE is there

3) I added ils on runway 23 ( 108.70) but after compiling the project, I close and open again ADE but the Ils is lost and using msfs2020 it isn't there....

I tried another stock airport ( liee where I live), but I don't see ils on runway 32 (109.50)...solution?
 
ADE doesn't really support navaids at the moment. Are you using two way editing with the project
 
My workaround on my last project was to get into the xml and edit/add/modify navaids from there. There is some snarky stuff going on with the fspackagetool compiler; for example, it will always move an ILS object from the parent runway to the airport object. I discovered this by running an xml through the compiler where ILS were children of runway objects to create a bgl. Then I used the bgl to xml tool and found that ILS were now children of the airport. Strange. Use the SDK documentation to add your VORD to the xml.

If i try to add ILS/NDB to my airport..I get error messages when I run build package...like in the text attached. I have the approach legs etc from the FSX xml.. Is there a way to fix this so it will compile or no? No way to import it from fsx. I have a csv but that all I know.

Thanks,
BobM.

The current alpha has the old FSX code in it for approaches. I have not investigated yet whether and to what extent navaids and approaches work in MSFS. It is certainly on the list to be done if possible.
