Runway Identification Method by RAAS

[Peter Webber 339]

Good day, I was wondering how does FS2 Crew RAAS identify the approaching runway in the airport scenery, i.e.what data does it gather from the simulator? The reason I am asking it that I have just purchased an addon airport from a scenery developer and RAAS is announcing the the opposite runways. When on runway 24, RAAS announces runway 06, and vice-versa, It only at that developers airport. If I know it is an issue with the developer's scenery, I can notify them. Regards.

Hi Peter,

Please run MakeRunway again to update your scenery database.  That's how RAAS "reads" things.   MakeRunways scans your scenery files to make a database. 

You should run MakeRunways every time your scenery changes.

Yes, I have done that with the latest version, and with Lorby aswell...the runways are swapped in this new scenery even after running MakeRunways. So I think there is an error in their scenery. It is not a default P3D v4 runway....(FALE). Any ideas? I think there could be an error with the developers scenery files.

You'd need to ask the developer.

They've probably done something non standard or there's an error in the way they programmed their scenery.

Feedback: Yes, an issue on their side. They have updated their AFX.bgl file. All good now.
