Where have all my AFCAD's gone? Plus 2nd Window.

Featured Replies

I love add-ons, but some are complicated, and seem to have major bugs which don't appear until after you download them.I used to have thousands of parking spaces and tons of AI, which all still show, including the parking spaces at my airports. Trouble is my airports, for the most part don't show my AFCAD2's IHAT DO SHOW IN AFCAD and if I try and change on the fly, my aircraft is non-visable in afcad. It appears as the old parking spaces are showing in default with new BGL buildings and scenery showing. I think this has to do with Airport Upgrade. I don't think they tell you they are going to wipe out everything you have. I wrote to Lee Swordy and never got a reply. The Afcad2 in use still shows the parking spaces, the airports don't show them though. I think they were wiped out by a BGL even though they show, as some are put in your FS scenerty file, not in ADDON. This is very frustrating.Also, and I have another issue with the disappearance of the 2nd window which shows just a few guages when landing. If I press W I go sreaight to the view page with no gauges and the next is back to the cockpit, so I have only 3 windows instead of three.Any help out there since I am not able to get a reply from the Afcad author.

Hi,Be sure that the Addon Scenery layer is checked as Active in the Scenery Library.Be sure that all your added AFCAD files (those not related to a specific addon scenery) are located in the FS2004/Addon Scenery/Scenery folder.Hope this helps,--Tom GibsonCal Classic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.comFreeflight Design Shop: http://www.freeflightdesign.comDrop by! ___x_x_(")_x_x___

That folder contains the "Mini Panel" that displays when you press the "W" key, if the aircraft.cfg doesn't specify its own unique "Mini Panel."

You have to be careful because a few aircraft installs will delete the mini panel.
