January 28, 20224 yr Hello: I would like to create a personal map of the world showing the locations of my airport/scenery addons in MS2020. I have tried Google Maps, but I don't like all of the ads and suggestions, etc. Could someone recommend a program (low cost if possible!) that would allow me to do this, including the insertion of individually created icons to differentiate various types of locations? I am not talking about a "moving map" or flight following addon; Just a map for viewing on the computer. Any advice appreciated! Steve in Kansas 7 Miles NW of KGCK Steve 7 Miles NW of KGCK
January 28, 20224 yr Do not use Google Maps. Use Google MyMaps... https://www.google.com/intl/de_ch/maps/about/mymaps/ Regards, Jan Ast Win 11 PC | Ryzen 7800 X3D | RTX 5080 | LG 42 C2 Cockpit 😉 | TrackIR 5 | Octavia IFR-1 | Virpil Alpha on WarBRD, Virpil CM3 Throttle, Virpil Sharka Control Panel | Honeycomb Alpha & Bravo | TM TPM Rudder
January 28, 20224 yr The Addon Linker can display a map of all your installed scenery/airports https://de.flightsim.to/file/1572/msfs-addons-linker Kind regards, Michael Intel i7-13700K / AsRock Z790 / Crucial 32 GB DDR 5 / ASUS RTX 4080OC 16GB / BeQuiet ATX 1000W / WD m.2 NVMe 2TB (System) / WD m.2 NVMe 4 TB (MSFS) / WD HDD 10 TB / XTOP+Saitek hardware panel / LG 34UM95 3440 x 1440 / HP Reverb 1 (2160x2160 per eye) / Win 11
January 28, 20224 yr The Addon Linker that @pmb mentioned is the easiest way to do this. But if you really want to do custom icons and reference data, then Google MyMaps is the way to go. I have something like that setup through Google MyMaps for all my MSFS2020 add-ons: If you want to use the same icons I did, I shared my icon pack on Flightsim.to: https://flightsim.to/file/27155/tygerr-s-map-icon-collection
January 28, 20224 yr Author Is there an English version of MyMaps? I can only find one in German...Thanks! Steve 7 Miles NW of KGCK
January 28, 20224 yr Author Found the English version! I cannot figure out how to add your icons to the map instead of the standard pins. Can you advise? Thanks for your help! c Steve 7 Miles NW of KGCK

Thanks for your help! c After you add the airport to the map, there are a set of icons you can click on to the right. The first icon going left to right is called "style." If you click on that icon, you can change the icon to something other than the standard pin.

January 28, 20224 yr I use Google Earth to do this. The desktop version. / CPU: Intel i7-9700K @4.9 / RAM: 32GB G.Skill 3200 / GPU: RTX 4080 16GB / Freight Pilot
