no VDGS indication at 3rd party airports
« on: September 20, 2022, 03:27:28 pm »
Hi,

Thank you!

Please describe your problem more precisely.

- Which scenery is ? Default or 3rd party ?

- If it's 3rdparty, is bought on the Marketplace ?

- Have you excluded it from GSX jetway replacement ?

- Has GSX loaded the correct file for the airport ( check the customization page ) ?

I can only confirm that VGDS works fine here but, of course, I need time to test that particular airport.

Read from this post down in the thread: https://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,27609.msg181757.html#msg181757

It seems that there might be an issue with the SimObject count in the sim and multiple add-ons trying to add objects. I saw the Discord thread on the AIG server and it seems like VDGS creates objects additional objects and so you might be hitting a limit? I don't know if VDGS placed somewhere is one object and then the data being displayed is another (or more) objects?

Anyway, not trying to muddy the waters, but it does seem like a sim limitation on SimObjects could explain a lot of strange phenomena people are seeing.

Yes, the display is made by several Simobjects, but they are only activated when the VGDS is enabled.

You must customize a scenery to add it first. Then, when you use GSX, the VGDS will turn on as soon you select the Gate.
