GSX issue with Aerosoft EDDM

[nordicman]

It gives an error that there are no parking spots available when i dont even use any AI traffic.

[virtuali]

I suggest reading the manual at Page 24, the explanation of the "airport_visibility" command, which is used to deal with 3rd party airports containing auxiliary airports (helipads, seaplane bases, etc.) very close or inside the main one.

[nordicman]

I have reinstalled everything from zero. I'll try it out and report.

[nordicman]

i cant find the CouatlAddons.INI file. Ive searched my entire pc for it. Im trying to use the fix on PG24 of manual

[nordicman]

Good day and happy easter. Where would i find the file to make the changes on page 24 please? Thanks.

What operating system are you using? You have to turn on hidden files and folders. Windows 10 you find the file in c:\users\yourusername\appdata\local\virtuali

[nordicman]

Windows 7. I have hidden files and folders showing so I'll check it out.

I made the changes and now i am getting an error that says it cant find AFCAD data for the airport, no GSX services.

It's not possible to help you without knowing which changes you made.

This means you disabled GSX on any airport with an ICAO of EDDM.

As explained in the manual, the airport_visibility parameter is supposed to be used when an auxiliary airport has a DIFFERENT ICAO from the main one, usually a fictional one, so you must disable (or reduce the range, to use both) of that one, using its code, not the code of the main airport.

Ok, can you please write down what im supposed to insert and ill insert it into the .ini file please? Thanks.

I cannot possibly know without knowing how the Aerosoft EDDM scenery was made. Did they use some fictional ICAO codes for auxiliary airports ? If yes, you must find which codes they used, and use those in the airport_visibility command, as explained on the GSX manual, Page 24.

The manual makes an example using an OrbX scenery, so it should be very easy to do the same on any other airport that use the same fictional ICAO method.

Ok I will make the necessary changes. Sorry to bug you with the mundane stuff. Thanks for the great products
