Afcad editor not ADE

[n612ua]

Hello, I have been away from fsx for a little over a year now. I am wanting to get back into it, I have asx acceleration the disk version (not steam).

 

I remember have a program similar to ADE where I could search the airport code, and open the airport afcad. It would show me all taxiways, runways, and parking spots. If I clicked on a parking spot it would tell me the gate, and what airline/airlines use that gate. It was very similar to this

When I use ADE it pulls up the stock airport. I have fs dreamteam lax and it's not opening it. I even tried searching for the afcad file and can't find it.

 

Anyone know of one for fsx like I linked? I am not trying to build airports or anything, maybe just editing some gate info.

 

Thanks Mike

ADE will open any airport. You have to navigate to the folder that has the addon airport after using the Open Airport menu item. Or use CTRL O to open the window.

I just tried the CTRL O and could not find any airports. I think it's because it want to look for ADE projects, and the drop down menu has no other options besides ADE project's. ADE/AD2 file types, so it wont find the BGL files.

 

If I go to file open airport from BGL, everyone one I try and open says "this file does not contain an airport. ADE will not load it.

Well..yes you can, your not opening the correct bgl

Can you post example freeware airport?

If I don't have it I will download and post screenshots of folder tree, high lighting the correct bgl.
