GSXv2 skipping large ADE file, sim sees scenery fine **SOLVED**

(1/2) > >>

Trying to use a Robert Catherall remake of Ray Smith's OMAA/Abu Dhabi.

In the couatl.log file, first it reports "using <long filename> (layer 452)"

and then later

"File <long filename> skipped, likely too big to be an airport"

The ADE file is a functioning 5.7MB airport file, editable in ADE, and the sim (P3Dv4) is loading it just fine.  It is large because the scenery objects are contained in the airport bgl.  GSX, however, reports using the default apx file rather than the ADE.

Hi Bob,
 
I had a *.BGL file that were 3,7 MB large, GSX also skipped the file because "too big for an airport". I followed the hint of Umberto and added this line into the couatl.ini :

airportCacheMaxBGLSizeBytes = 8000000   (the command is case sensitive!!)

Just try it out, I could solve my problems that way! ;)

regards, Pit.

w6kd:
Thanks Pit--that fixed it.

Cheers

Bob Scott

Pit:
You are welcome Bob!  :)

Hi Bob & Pit,

Where I can find the Couatl.log file for FSX in Windows 7?
