Is SunSkyJet still working KDTW?

you should be charging for it ones it is complete.

I think many people are looking forward to this not only because of its quality, but also because of the fact it is actually freeware. While it's certainly payware quality, changing it now to payware would be a bit of a blow to people. Leave it as it was intended to be.

Has someone made a GSX profile and AFCAD for this? Seems like it would be the easiest way to solve jetway issues.

We are not going to charge for this scenery. It's a hobby for us.

Yes this would be the solution for now. I know two members who have already done some work on it. If they want to share it it would be great.

I have been working on a GSX profile for jetways for the past several days. Currently I have concourses D, B, and C completed... All I have is A remaining. There were quite a few hiccups though with Concourse C and gate numbers since it is the least completed of them all, but everything should be usable, especially with the other concourses. I will share when completed!

Hello all, I am happy to release my GSX profile for this wonderful freeware scenery! Hopefully this makes the experience usable until the full version is released 🙂

Each gate has the appropriate Jetway along with placed ground vehicles to not interfere with scenery objects. Several points:

 - Terminals D and C AFCAD files do NOT match the gate information for the terminal marking's, so, I ignored the AFCAD information and placed jetway markings to match the actual gate number

 - One of the gates in Terminal D doesn't have a jetways (either 21 or 23 as I forgot) due to a duplication in the AFCAD file forcing one of the jetways to teleport on top of the other duplicate on each restart of P3D

 - Terminal C was quite difficult to find suitable jetways for such tight spaces, so several gates may seem awkward (if you edit something which works better, let me know :))

 - Several gates in the ADFCAD for Terminal C were missing, so they don't have jetways

 - The North end of Terminal C has been modeled as still under construction, so I didn't make any jetways for them

 - Please read the given READ ME text file for installation instructions, as it is required to remove the old SODE jetways

 

I hope you all enjoy this, as it took me many hours over the past couple of days with 100+ gates to work on.

Thank you again for the fantastic scenery!!!

 

Also, If anyone has any feedback or edits (either to fix the AFCAD file or GSX profile), they'd be greatly appreciated as this was my first full airport profile in GSX v2

Thank's in advance

Is this scenery working relatively well in P3dV4?

[fakeflyer737 991]

I thought i heard shez  say he was in contact with Ian to fix it. 

[ShezA 176]

It works in P3DV4.

Hi,

Just landed at KDTW, arriving from EDDF. I went to gate A20 and would just say that :

-All gates around A20 have number 75 on jetways. I have looked at the ini file, and the numbers on jetways are OK. Perhaps a GSX error

-Some gates just near A20 should have 2 jetways, but have only one. It would be nice to have a correct file.

The airport is very nice. Great job!!!

If you’re talking about gates A24 and A28, from satellite imagery and google images, those two stands only have one jetway.

Beautiful! Excellent Work! Thx!!!

Here is my tweaked SODE XMLs and Cross-Runway AFCAD:

Tiger, nice job!  Thanks.

 

Still have elevated runway lights.  Since they are sode xml any ideas?

[tigerhuey 4]

Thx!

For runway lights, on the "KDTW_SSJ_DL.xml", I put "-1.00" on "Alt":

...

    <SimObject Name="KDTW_rwy_lights">
        <Placement Lat="42.214965000052" Lon="-83.3569333333328" Alt="-1.00#AGL" Hdg="00.00"/>
        <Model SimTitle="SSJ_KDTW_LIGHTS_AP">
            <ConditionalVisibility LogicExpression="A|B">
                <Condition ID="A" Variable="MetVisibility" Value="0-5000"/>
                <Condition ID="B" Variable="TimeOfDay" Value="DAWN;DUSK;NIGHT"/>
            </ConditionalVisibility>
        </Model>
    </SimObject>
