• 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.

Hello the past days i have been working whit a smal project by create a costum made ILS code that could be compiled but im not much in to it.

i so far got it working as it should by the codes here(have also attached so its easyer to se):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<FSData

</Ils>
</Runway>
</Airport>
</FSData>

but isent there a way to skip the text about the Airport and runway data as i only need the data for the ILS whit GS and DME

best regards LN

You can create this directly with ADE you do not need to use XML unless you have another reason to do it.
 
It is because it is to a addon, that does not have ILS as it isent there in the realworld. just some costumers that wanted it.. i have tryeid whit ADE and AFX but in AFX i cant remove the Stock data and ADE i cant remove the runway. so what the 1 program offers is missing in the other. so thats why i wanted to do a clean file whit only the data neede
 
Why can't you remove the runway with ADE? As far as I know there is no limitation.

As to your question about not including airport and runway data in the XML. You must include that so that the compiler will work.

You do not say if this is for FS9 or FSX. However this is a stock airport and in both FS9 and FSX there is no ILS.
I don't think I yet understand what you are trying to do since there is a single runway and it is very easy to add an ILS to it. However you say you need to delete that runway?
 
It is for FSX but i cant remove the runway if i want to add an ILS whit ADE as if i do it i would get a warning that says i must delt the ILS before i can delt the Runway and placing the ils afterwards is also not posible. Because whit AFX i can remove the runway and add the ils whit out problems the only problem is it adds the default tower + default nav aids. And as said i want to delt the Runway as it is in the file from the developers.. as giving FSX the data more than once is not clean coding. and might have side effects

So this is an addon airport as you said in your first post (sorry I did not realize that properly.

Is this a payware addon? Is it something that we can look at so that we can understand better what you want to do.
