TomG628 Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 (edited) Hi, I have Prepar3d Ver 4 and would like to install an addon of my local airport. The directions says to "Just drag and drop the KAVP_ADEX_RWT.BGL file into your Addon Scenery/Scenery folder." I could only find the Scenery folder so I put it there, but it isn't recognized. I am not that tech experrienced. Thanks. Tom Edited May 11, 2020 by TomG628 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vgbaron Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 First, do you know if the product is compatible with P3D? If not, don't bother. If it is, it's a bit more complicated than just dropping it into a folder. Get the freeware tool P4AO from https://www.lorby-si.com/downloads.html - it;s the Add On Organizer. Read the documentation to see whats involved. Basically - create an Addon Scenery folder somewhere, create a Scenery subfolder Put your bgl file in the Scenery sub folder you just created Run P4AO and add scenery - it will walk you through creating the xml file necessary after it is installed you need to move your airport to the top of the scenery file, you do this within P4AO. But first check if it's compatible with P3D.

I found the file in Simmarket and although the description is mostly referencing FSX, it states it is compatible with Prepar3d in the description.

dnpaul Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 There is a nifty little utility out there called the Lorby Add-on Organizer. I use it to manage add-on airports and scenery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
