Parameter Altitude not Found

[tcas_test 4]

Hi mate, I'm just having some trouble getting PSXT to show any traffic. I'm getting an error 65 : Parameter Altitude not Found.

Am running P3DV5.

Thanks, Stirling

Hi,

That means that in the airport file YBBN.xml  (in the airports folder of PPG) the parameter altitude is missing. You can add it manually, in feet.

Look in another airport file for the syntax ( how to write it down)

Are you sure you have edit the file that PSXT takes? There can be two files YBBN.xml, one in parked_updates and one in your Airports fplder. PSXT takes the one in parked_updates first.

It also looks like your airport file was generated long ago. Maybe you better let PPG generate a new one. ICAO, IATA, latitude and longitude are no longer needed; same for num_real_live_options and num_real_live_parkpos.  Here part of the stock airport YBBN.xml for P3D:

.<parameters>
    <parameter name="airport_name" value="Brisbane Intl" />
    <parameter name="supplier" value="P3D stock airport" />
    <parameter name="altitude" value="13" />
    <parameter name="num_parkpos" value="9" />
    <parameter name="parking_percentage" value="75" />
</parameters>

Hi kiek, I have tried regenerating, but am still getting the same error. 

Here is a snippet from the xml in ParkingPosGenerator/Airports
<meta>
    <info name="author" value="ParkPosGenerator" />
    <info name="version" value="22.0" />
    <info name="date" value="Apr 11, 2021" />
</meta>
<parameters>
    <parameter name="airport_name" value="Brisbane Intl" />
    <parameter name="supplier" value="ORBX" />
    <parameter name="altitude" value="13" />
    <parameter name="num_parkpos" value="139" />
    <parameter name="parking_percentage" value="35" />
</parameters>

Thank you for the help.
