AFCAD...Am I correct in assuming...

Am I correct in assuming that AFCAD has not been released for FSX? And it it has, can you use the old RAFCADS from FS9 to have AI utilize more runways and whatnot?

Proud simmer since 1982 using the following simulators: Sublogic Flight Simulator 1 and 2. Microsoft Flight Simulator 4.0, 5.1, FS95, FS98, FS2000, FS2002, FS2004, FSX (and unfortunately Flight!). Terminal Reality Fly 1 and 2. Sierra Pro Pilot, Looking Glass/Eidos/Electronic Arts Flight Unlimited I, II and III, Laminar Research X-Plane 7, 8, 9, 10 and 11, FS Aerofly 2, Lockheed Martin Perpar3D 2.X, 3.X, 4.X and 5.X and Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020). Not to mention numerous combat simulators and games related to flight that I have played with over the years.

System: Intel I7-7700K-Water Cooled, 32GB Ram, GTX 1080Ti, 500gb SSD, 1TB HD and dedicated 1TB and 2TB SSD's for Flight Simulators

It's a newer program, ADE:http://www.airportdesigneditor.co.uk/Quite powerful!

Noy good idea to use FS9 afcads in fsx as a lot of the runways have being repositioned and quiet often there are scenery clashes. As noted above there are new airport editors, one payware and 2 free. ade seems to do better.

Also RAFCAD has been deprecated, as FSX makes use of aircraft.cfg wingspan value vice the model radius size.scott s..

I also use ADE, it's a very powerful tool yet easy to understand and use. Just edit an airport and compile the bgl into your Addon Scenery folder. You can also change the terrain to create space for you airport and so on.

Others that I can't remember ;-)

 

 

 

I use AFX which is AFCAD for FSX but it is payware now. ADE is a little more complicated but free, I suggest that you try that one first.
