AFX Airport Facilitator X

HiI'm trying to edit some afcad files to correct runaway elevation for 1-2 ft.The problem is that with few afcads AFX give the message that some functions of edited AFCAD could not be save-d.And also gives suggestion to save changes under new name AFX_ICAO_CODE and put this AFCAD to higher level then original.In that case all functions of original AFCAD will be intact.The question is? What should I do with new afcad?Create new folder in Addon scenery for example AFX_ICAO with subfolder scenery and add this above original scenery?Or something else.ThanksEdin

What it says is exactly what it means.Some content in the file you are modifying is extra to a normal AF2 or AFX file and cannot be managed by them.It is telling you that if you put your new file in a scenery layer that loads after the original one, then your modifications will over-ride the original one but the features it cannot modify will still be read from the original file.Your idea of creating a new directory to store all such modifications is an excellent way to do it.John
