Tool for airport config path replacement?
« on: August 28, 2022, 03:49:32 pm »
Can't it be made easier, that we do not everytime replace the path' of downloaded airport configs?

I would think about a configuration file where one could input his own config path',
e.g.
EDDN=afcad_path = \\?\F:\MSFS2020\Community\EDDN aerosoft-eddn-nuernberg\scenery\world\scenery\EDDN_LS_airport.bgl
EDDM=afcad_path = \\?\F:\MSFS2020\Community\navigraph-navdata-base\scenery\fs-base\scenery\0601\APX51140.bgl
EDDW=afcad_path = \\?\F:\MSFS2020\Official\OneStore\fs-base-genericairports\scenery\0601\APX50130.bgl

And when I insert new or updated airport cfgs, the tool would compare the path in the newly downloaded cfg and replace it with the one in the users own config path file.

Currently with all the new and updated configs it is a real copy/paste orgy.


So, if anyone could make such a hopefully simple tool, that would be great.
If GSX itself would have such a function, would be evne better!

thx

You don't have to do that, I keep explaining when people share their files:
