GSX not lining up with airport parking **SOLVED**
« on: August 10, 2017, 11:11:56 pm »
After trying out the 777 that I have recently bought,I decided to go from FSDT's CYVR to CYYZ. When i got to the gate and lined up, It said I was not there yet so I decided to spawn at the gate i end up at a really silly angle and a bit to far ahead. I think this is a glitch but I do not know how to fix it. I have tried re- installing both YVR and GSX but with no sucess.

This seems to indicate you have a conflicting AFCAD from another product (usually AI traffic products cause conflicts), which you must remove. You can check the name of the AFCAD used by GSX in the parking customization dialog, to know if it's the one that is supposed to be used by the scenery.

Its destinationfolder is Orbx's Pacific Northwest YVR instead of FSDT's YVR. Is this the problem and if so how would I fix it? 

thanks alot for all the support,

Harvey

As I've said in my previous message, you must remove the offending file.

Do this when the sim is not running, then restart it. On the next start of the sim, you should see a message from GSX that is rebuilding the cache. If you don't see that message, use the "Restart and rebuild the airport cache" option from the Couatl menu, to force a cache rebuild.

And, the path of the offending file from the OrbX scenery was indicated in the screenshot you posted. That's the file you should remove.
