Questions about 2 airport sceneries

Featured Replies

The first on is about Bill Melichar's Trinidad International Airport (trinv2.zip) With this scenery is there supposed to be any flatten or exclude commands to be added? I am seing the default taxiways around runway 10. And every AFCAD I tried for this scenery has planes parking in a grassy area between the terminal and the 2 hangers off runway 10, so Im guessing that the grassy area is not supposed to be there.The second scenery is Zurich by Richard Mohler (zurich.zip) I put the scenery folder in the FS folder with my other airport scenery files, started FS and went to settings then added the scenery, but when I went to Zurich the scenery was not there. Any idea why this scenery is not showing up?

Bump :-)

Im having trouble with Bill's Tabago scenery too. I had the parking marking on the tarmac, with the new tarmac when I downloaded it. Now the airport has all the default taxiways and part of the airport tarmac is covered with grass textures.

Your problem has nothing to do with "flatten" or "exclude".It is simply, that the taxiways, aprons, runways of add on sceneries are usually more exactly positioned, than those of the default scenery. But the paths the aircrafts will take have not changed. This results in aircrafts taxying, parking etc. on grass or even inside terminal buildings.For FS2002, you can use the AFCAD programm by Lee Swordy to correct these airport facillities. If you are flying with FS2004 ou have to wait till October, when Lee probably will release his AFCAD version for FS2004.AFCAD for FS2002 you can download here from the AVSIM library, where you will also find lots of allready designed AFCAD files for many airports. I know, that there are some available for Bill Melichar's sceneries too. But first you have to download AFCAD itself.For your Zurich problem: what to you mean, whan you say, you have added the scenery via "settings"? You have add the new scenery into the scenery library.Wolfgang

Yes I ment added in the scenery library for the Zurich scenery.Let me try to explain the other problem better. When Im sitting on runway 10 at Trinidad I can see default taxiway textures, but if I move like halfway down the runway I see the new runway textures from the new scenery. And the grassy area I was talking about is between the terminal and the two hangers off runway 10, now every AFCAD I downloaded for the scenery has planes parked in this grass area, so I'm thinking this grass area is not supposed to be there (maybe all of the scenery is not showing up?)
