Reverting to default AFCAD
« on: January 28, 2018, 12:24:25 am »
Morning Guys

The title says it all. When I go to an 'add-on' airport I'm not able to use GSX (only provides parking options, not departure ones). I have read the recommended threads associated with this issue (Ray Smith VHHH and GSX can't read LEAS Afcad).

I have attached a copy of my Couatl log and noticed numerous BGL files skipped with the message "likely too big to be an airport". and while these refer to scenery outside of an airport I'm wondering what affect, if any, this has on the sim.

YMML (ORBX) is my default airport and I noticed the following script at the bottom of the log where it speaks specifically of a mismatched AFCAD:

    Airport cache regeneration completed with success in 8 seconds
    Loading airport YMML from D:\MyTraffic Professional\MyTraffic\scenery\BR2_YMML.BGL
    Customization file C:\Users\mijev\AppData\Roaming\Virtuali/GSX\ymml-2vjiwr.ini ignored: AFCAD file doesn't match afcad_path entry
    Customization file C:\Users\mijev\AppData\Roaming\Virtuali/GSX\ymml-zhs6cy.ini ignored: AFCAD file doesn't match afcad_path entry
    Added Menu SubItem "Customize airport positions..." (parentId 81, id 98)
   
 

Are you able to ascertain any specific issues from the log that would fix the add-on problem (eg would removing the BR.2_YMML.BGL fix the AFCAD?)

Please note I am not an IT specialist but I do know my way around a PC if the instruction is given in layman terms. Any assistance greatly appreciated.

According to your log:


File C:\Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_YMML\scenery\YMML_60cm.bgl skipped, likely too big to be an airport
File C:\Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_YMML\scenery\YMML_GP.BGL skipped, likely too big to be an airport
File C:\Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_YMML\scenery\YMML_Lib_LegacyModels_P3D.BGL skipped, likely too big to be an airport
File C:\Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_YMML\scenery\YMML_Lib_Terminalv3_P3D.BGL skipped, likely too big to be an airport
Folder C:\Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_YMML\scenery processed in 0.01 seconds


Some files from the OrbX YMML folder were skipped because they were too big to be likely be an AFCAD. However, it looks like the OrbX AFCAD it's MISSING there so, GSX correctly loaded the only AFCAD available for YMML with an higher priority than default, which is the MyTraffic one.

Also, these two lines here:


Customization file C:\Users\mijev\AppData\Roaming\Virtuali/GSX\ymml-2vjiwr.ini ignored: AFCAD file doesn't match afcad_path entry
Customization file C:\Users\mijev\AppData\Roaming\Virtuali/GSX\ymml-zhs6cy.ini ignored: AFCAD file doesn't match afcad_path entry


Shows you have TWO customization files for YMML, maybe one which was made for the default scenery and one which was made for the OrbX scenery but, since the active AFCAD is now the MyTraffic one, GSX again correctly discarded both, since none of them is matching the AFCAD currently in use.

The OrbX AFCAD should be here:

C:\Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\ORBX\FTX_AU\FTXAA_YMML\scenery\ORBX_YMML_APX.bgl
