• 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.

Support for FS Architect

I am planning on modeling the proposed developments at Lydd (EGMD) in FSX, as we are planning a new runway extension and terminal facilities.

I have downloaded and installed FS Architect 4.1 build 2 along with the current MS java re-distributable. I am having issues getting this promising looking program to work, specifically when I select an object such as a runway I cannot using F4 get the properties to be displayed (a right click on the selected item also does not work) so I can edit the objects complete the tutorial, and then start developing scenery for Lydd. I am running Windows XP SP2 and have tried on both my 32 bit install and my 64 bit install and have the same issue

The support forum for the software according to the help file is located at http://help.pouksim.com, but this at the moment is a dead link , but in fairness the site mentions issues with DNS / changing hosting companies etc.

Other than right here (which I guess is a good a place as any), where should I seek support? When I've given it a good test drive I am happy to donate to the author of this free software which appears to be able to deliver what I need.

Thanks in advance

Hi Royston,

I had the same problem until I set the Airport's reference point under File/Properties and then F4 did bring up the runway properties box.

Hope this helps.

Regards

Thanks for the advice Humph, sadly did'nt do the trick, I've made a start on modeling the "new" lydd using AFCAD, which at least allows me to model the runway, question now is what is the best partner for this in terms of modeling the terminal buildings / hangers etc? given that I sadly seem not to get FS architect to work.
 
i would say Gmax or if you want to go for a diffrence use .. Flight 1 iNstant scenery but im not sure u can design your own or evenuse it as a object placer ?
