FSDreamteam Airports Messed up After P3dv5 Update

Featured Replies

I just noticed that the FSDT airports seem messed up since I updated P3dv5 yesterday (I did reinstall Client, Content, and Scenery). I went to CYVR first, and there was a mixture of default and FSDT building, plus two control towers overlapping each other. I checked out KIAH next and it was messed up too. I ran the FSDT updater but this did not resolve the problem. I assume all of the FSDT airports are like this. Does anyone know if a complete reinstall of the FSDT airports is required? Thanks in advance.

Cheers, Pete

I'm not seeing this at my FSDT sceneries, and I'm pretty sure it's an issue not isolated to V5. I would search the FSDT forum for posts like this: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php?topic=20893.0

Yes, the FSDT Live Update fixes this but, you MUST allow it to overwrite the AFCAD file because, what changed between P3D 4 and P3D5 is the default scenery underneath and, the original AFCAD which came with the sceneries, which were made based on the default P3D4 scenery, used to contain Exclusion areas that are not valid anymore in V5, because the default scenery changed.

We updated all our AFCAD files with a version that works for both simulators very shortly after P3D V5 came out, but you must allow the FSDT Live Update to overwrite it when asked. If you don't, maybe because you customized it, it won't work with V5, unless you redo the exclusion zones with ADE, that is the only way to keep your modified AFCAD.

But, barring any other reasons ( like conflicting sceneries ), if you use the AFCAD which is online on the Live Update now, it will surely work with V5.
