A2A Constellation

[C130]

Is there a way to get GSX 2 passengers boarding/de boarding the Constelation by A2A?

I have tried to disable the Connie Air stars, in the A2A menu, these are ignored by GSX. Also tried to edit position at airport. (EGLC Orbx) But the GSX stairs don't show up?

Anyone had any success with the Connie and GSX 2?

You must be sure you create a proper GSX configuration for that airplane, with all doors set in their correct 3d position.

Yes I created a GSX configuration in the aircraft editor. There is only one passenger door, aft port side. I tried using both embedded stairs and non embedded stairs.

The only other opening is the cargo hatch, which works correctly with the belt cargo loader.

The problem seems to be with the A2A in built boarding routine. They open the door and pop up their own stairway. You can disable this in the sim menu. I have tried every way and can't get GSX passengers to show. The GSX bus arrives, but no passengers appear.

I did see a "flash" of a GSX boarding stairway, but it only showed for about half a second before disappearing. I can't get the GSX stairs to show up in the "edit parking positions" editor, there just aren't any stairs whatsoever?

I would like to get GSX2 working with the Connie, it would make a great video.

Any help appreciated. It's a nice aircraft and lends itself to GSX2. I can't find any videos of anyone using GSX2 with the A2A Connie?

Regards.

Try to disable the "Estimate passenger number" option in GSX, and set the number of passengers manually.

Try to disable the "Estimate passenger number" option in GSX, and set the number of passengers manually.

Did that and no effect.

I get a message in red text "there are no passenger stairs you will not see any passengers boarding".

In the GSX Customizer, the Disable staircases is unticked, yet there are no Staircases to edit at the gate?

Something is blocking the staircases from being initialised in GSX?

I tried the Aircraft customisation with the parameters for embedded stairs, this had no effect.

Still stuck!

EDIT The passenger bus arrives, with passengers on it. No boarding takes place. Its as if GSX 2 wont work with the A2A Connie?

That's interesting. The photo shows a GSX Stairway and not the embedded A2A Stairway and Stewardess that comes with the Connie.

So you disable the A2A Stairway from the A2A menu. The GSX stairs should then show up. My problem is that no GSX stairs are available with the A2A Connie, even in the edit airport positions editor?

It's as if the Connie is blocking GSX stairs from appearing.

I have tried at several airports and get the same results. So it's not the airports.

As your photo shows its frustrating!

Partially resolved!!

OK so what I did was as follows(may help anyone else who experienced my issue)


Copy and paste the GSX cfg, from ianfisher, into your GSX aircraft folder.
GSX menu manually select number of passengers.
Shift+3 A2A menu, enable A2A stairs. (need these because GSX stairs will not appear (for me?)
Shift+4 A2A load aircraft menu with max passenger load.
from GSX menu select Boarding.
when A2A boarding completes early Shift+4 again . ( A2A boarding finishes early and stairs move before GSX passengers have finished boarding.)
Boarding completes.

I have attached some pictures.

I don't understand why I cant get any GSX stairways to show, but using the above method allows GSX2 boarding using the A2A stairs!

Cheers!

Where can I get A2A L-049 Connie Constellation GSX zip file ready to let Connie work with GSX passengers?
