I have made around 500 airports and airfields in Canada and Alaska for FS9. Is there interest in having the same buildings that were included in those airports modified and posted for the MSFS airports? In FS9 they were models of the actual buildings instead of guesses. In MSFS they would bring the same real life situation.

Another episode posted today on YouTube, the second part of day 3. Flight to Grande Prairie in Alberta, which is one of my scenery posts on here.

There is on YouTube now the first few of a series of videos made by Angle of Attack of their trip from Homer Alaska to Oshkosh. Well worth watching and so far featuring places I have made for FS9. This is probably the wrong place to write this but......
-
Well I finally got around to trying the WD40 magic trick on my Saitek joystick, and it worked! Good idea, and much better than taking it apart or buying a new one.
-
One little squirt per button? Or more? I have a similar problem with buttons not working properly.
-
Having looked at all that my conclusion is that they have stopped showing airports!?! And that just after I had to replace my old laptop with a new one and I no longer have all my airports marked. Drat.
-
Has google earth stopped showing airfield locations with the little white planes that give the name when you move the cursor on top of them?
-
Aha! Is it possible that you could email it to me? How big is it when zipped?
-
I have, or had before my laptop collapsed, SceneryGenX by Tom Hiscox installed. I now have a new laptop and have copied over the previous installation, but it does not work. Does anyone have the original download saved? Tom?
-
Tom, Do you still have the downloaded version? I mean the download before you installed Scenery GenX on your computer?
-
My laptop died and I no longer have the downloaded version of the V3.0 programme to install it on my new one. Abacus appears to have stopped functioning too. Does anyone have an idea on how to get around this?
-
Anyone aware of where and how the Abacus FSDS V3.5 scenery object making programme hides/uses the "registration key" that it is now telling me I need for it to work on my new laptop?
-
As I remember I had to install it onto my computer, then rename that folder and replace it with my original computer's folder? I think? I started with the 3.0 installer, then added the 3.5 update.
Tom, I tried that and it seems to be starting, but then doesn't quite get there. I suspect that the i3 7th Gen on this new laptop is too modern to deal with such an old programme. I get messages to that effect about other items.
-
Biggles, this is about a scenery making programme, not about scenery as such.
-
Tom,
This is a new laptop with everything copied over from the hard drive of the imploded old one. FS9 still works, though there are some minor faults to be cleaned up, and almost everything else is ok. It could be that the much newer 7th generation chip is not compatible with GenX.
-
Tom, tried different combinations within compatibility but no result. Ah well....
-
Tom, what is a compatibility mode?
-
Does anyone have any idea about getting GenX to start working again once it has stopped? After years it has just.... stopped?
-
That idea that it is caused by some land class dropped into the airport folder that already included some other land class files sounds to me the likely cause. They "start arguing with each other" and eat up memory.
-
Why would I be annoyed with you?!? And thank you Tom. I might just start emailing you directly.
-
I do not want to delete the ai planes because they are in front of me. I just want to be able to see ALL the ai functioning as it should. I will try to check if it has been in the forum before.
-
AI planes that taxi for take off, and then have to wait as other planes are landing, stand still in a queue for 5 minutes. They then disappear if there is no further movement. Is it possible to increase this waiting time?
-
Try making scenery and you will find that FS9 has a load of dirty tricks ready.
-
Does runway 32 have ILS? I have noticed at another airfield that even if the wind is 25 knots from the south ALL of the AI uses runway 27 as that has ILS. Only when the wind reaches 32 knots does the AI switch to runway 18.
