Parking editor in aerosoft amsterdam scenery
« on: March 07, 2012, 04:50:02 pm »
Hello,

I need an advice on using parking editor in aerosoft amsterdam scenery. As the users of it know, this scenery is provided with  five different AFCAD files, one default and one for each major wind direction, so that user can choose one of them as the active and get the most reasonable multiple runway operation under particular wind condition. I noticed that this feature conflicts with parking editor. Since the parameter file records the name of the AFCAD file and Editor only works if the Afcad file recorded in parameter file is active, when i change the active afcad after a customization, i can't use the editor for any of the gates and loose the previous customizations.

What could be the most practical bypass for this issue?

Best regards,
Suavi Akar

It's not a problem, GSX CAN handle multiple .INI files, they will be named automatically XXXX1.INI, XXXX2.INI ( xxxx would be the ICAO code) and it will automatically use the one with the matching AFCAD name.

So, in your case, you could do the following:

- Do the whole customization using the same AFCAD

- Switch to another AFCAD

- Customize ONLY 1 parking, enough for GSX to create a new .INI file

- Copy&Paste all the parking sections from the first .INI to the new one using a text editor. Just the parking section, leave the [general] section as it were, because it contains the name of the AFCAD in use.

Try to move the .ini file which was previously created to a different folder.
