Exit position utility


Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

 

I would like to be able to add the coordinates for jetways to all my aircraft. I read somewhere that there is a utility that allows you to do this by visually marking the door position in FSX, but after searching high and low, I can not find it, or even any other reference to it.

 

The only reference to it is here:

http://www.flightsimworld.com/forums/topic/159634-how-to-make-the-jetway-exit-codes-for-fsx/

(In the last post).

 

Does anyone know of such a utility?

 

Any help is greatly appreciated. :)

The AES Basepack from Aerosoft would probably be your best bet. It's free of charge. You just need to move your aircraft to one of the airports that AES supports. Currently the default Nuremberg airport and the SunSkyJet KPHL are supported for free. After the parameters are set the coordinates are saved in a .dat file, which you should be able to then copy and paste into your aircraft.cfg file. The AES Basepack can be found here:

Hope that works for you.

If you are going to edit (exits) section of aircraft cfg, here is some info you can use.

 

//openclose rate percent per second, lon, lat, vert positions from datum (ft),

//type (0=Main 1=Cargo 2=Emergency)

[Exits]

exit.0 = 0.25, 29.90, -3.8, 3.0, 0

 

I am refering to the 'type' entry, which MIGHT make a difference as to results. If you are going to use a 'light' to locate the door(s) using a type 1 light works good (ie: light.x=1,...). Hope this helps.
