January 1, 201016 yr Hi,It seems like RC4 does not recognize LIMC addon scenery after DB rebuilding. The problem is very similar to what RC previously had with Flightscenery KPDX and KPVD. My initial thought was that custom-made ILS's in main scenery folder may intefere with RC Rebuilder. I disabled these ils-files and rebuiled scenery again, but had no luck at all - LIMC is not visible by RC4 and there is no such airport as LIMC in runways.xls file.Your help would be much appreciated.ThanksDmitriy 9950X3D, X870E ROG CROSSHAIR HERO, Corsair Dominator Titanium 64GB DDR5-6000 PC5-48000, ASUS RTX 5070Ti 16GB, 9100 PRO 4TB Samsung ,990 PRO 4TB Samsung, AX1600i 1600 Watt 80 Plus Titanium ATX, ASUS 360 ARGB EXTREME 360mm Liquid CPU Cooling Kit.

January 1, 201016 yr Author Solved. It was an error in AFCAD that shows both runways with 800ft lenght. AFAIK Makerunways cannot recognizes such lenght as an attribute of valid runway. I changed to lenght to normal one and my problem was fixed.Thank you 9950X3D, X870E ROG CROSSHAIR HERO, Corsair Dominator Titanium 64GB DDR5-6000 PC5-48000, ASUS RTX 5070Ti 16GB, 9100 PRO 4TB Samsung ,990 PRO 4TB Samsung, AX1600i 1600 Watt 80 Plus Titanium ATX, ASUS 360 ARGB EXTREME 360mm Liquid CPU Cooling Kit.

January 1, 201016 yr Author the new one does. what version do you have?4.4.1. Any reason to upgrade for a new one? 9950X3D, X870E ROG CROSSHAIR HERO, Corsair Dominator Titanium 64GB DDR5-6000 PC5-48000, ASUS RTX 5070Ti 16GB, 9100 PRO 4TB Samsung ,990 PRO 4TB Samsung, AX1600i 1600 Watt 80 Plus Titanium ATX, ASUS 360 ARGB EXTREME 360mm Liquid CPU Cooling Kit.
January 2, 201016 yr Commercial Member the new one does. what version do you have?Does it? I don't remember that we ever agreed to remove the runway length restriction? It's still checking for > 1500 (metres I think).RegardsPete Win10: 22H2 19045.2728 CPU: 9900KS at 5.5GHz Memory: 32Gb at 3800 MHz.

January 2, 201016 yr That's a little long long for rejection. With RC5 expected to do VFR you'll find runways much shorter than 1500 meters.The pseudo runways used in the "crosswind" or "star" workaround (to make non-parallel runways capable of being simultaneously active) are typically less than 1200 feet. I thought that was the limit. Its been too long :)Of course heliports and pads are special cases. Never thought of that. Does it?

With RC5 expected to do VFR you'll find runways much shorter than 1500 meters.Someone needs to make a proposal for a change then. It's always been 1500 metres by agreement here. No one mentioned any VFR to me and no other user application is needing them either as far as I can tell, unless they would be if they had them. ;-)Of course heliports and pads are special cases. Never thought of that.Heliports and water runways are also eliminated at present. Not sure what RC will do with a heliport -- does it have an orientation?RegardsPete Win10: 22H2 19045.2728 CPU: 9900KS at 5.5GHz Memory: 32Gb at 3800 MHz.

January 2, 201016 yr I'll propose it to the beta group then.Helicopters at some controlled airports have a pad near each end of a runway threshold. This reduces the distance required to "taxi" to the runway so they take-off briefly along a runway path along with fixed wing aircraft to preserve traffic flow at low altitudes I would imagine.At controlled airports you'll find applications like collocated military equipment and medivac facililities that some users would prefer to emulate. Medivac aircraft could certainly have to fly in IFR conditions also at least for part of a route.Regarding length, 1500 meters equals about 4900 feet and there are some controlled airports with runways of that distance. Looking at an r4.csv I see lengths of 1600 (your readme says it is feet) so we are probably fine with that. I checked it against afcad for 00IS and it matches at 1600 feet. It is a private farm strip. So if it ain't broke . . . :) Someone needs to make a proposal for a change then. It's always been 1500 metres by agreement here.

The BGLs contain metres but i probably convert it to feetduing the scanning.Pete Win10: 22H2 19045.2728 CPU: 9900KS at 5.5GHz Memory: 32Gb at 3800 MHz.
