Parking 747 gsx
« on: April 20, 2012, 09:02:44 am »
good morning, how do I change the size of the parking lot so we could keep a 747 and can use all the gsx?

Using an AFCAD editor.

Of course, changing a parking size to fit an airplane that doesn't really fit, it's not a good idea. Since GSX can't obviously know if a parking has enough space around it to be enlarged, or the scenery author set it small for a reason, it can't do other than the most logical choice: comparing the parking radius against the airplane half wingspan, not allowing airplane larger.

As I've said, using an AFCAD editor, like the free ADE (Airport Design Editor) or the commercial AFX, sold by Flight1.

but changing the size (both right and left) in the parking options do not solve anything?

They affect the visual radius that controls the GSX vehicles placement, not the airplane size restriction check.

I no longer see the option to change the parking lot from me!

As explained in the manual, and discussed several times on the forum too, if an airport is already customized internally by GSX, no further customization is allowed, and EDDM is one of them.

We are going to lift this restriction with the full parking customization editor, which we are working on as we speak.
