Of course GSX reads the wingspan, and compares it with the parking radius in the AFCAD so, if GSX says it's too small, then IT IS too small, at least as far the AFCAD is concerned.

Now, this might be correct or not, GSX cannot possibly know (other than trusting the AFCAD) but, if you believe a parking *should* be able to fit a 747-8, that's what the GSX parking customization is there for: to override some things in the AFCAD, without redoing the AFCAD.

Just select the parkings you want, and click the small "airplane" icon, so it will automatically set the correct wingspan for the airplane you are currently in.

I deleted the custom profile I had installed for the 747-8 and ran the FSDT live updater so I should have the config for the plane by fsdt (unless I missed something).
At gates with ctrl-j jetways GSX always asks me to open Door 1L while the jetways connects to the preffered exit 2L. Is this a problem only on my end or is there something wrong with the config supplied by fsdt?

Just set the Preferred exit on door 2 in the airplane configuration editor (click on the door's name, to make it blue).

CptGombo:
I just checked and door 2L already was set as the preferred exit.
Another thing I just noticed:
With both the PMDG 747-400 and -8 the baggage loaders take really weird routes. They drive from the right hand side of the aircraft to the left and then through the plane to their positions (on the right side). This only happens since one of the latest updates.

They surely don't. I checked it now, with the 747-8, and all loaders works normally. Please be sure you use the internal configuration that comes with GSX, by doing the following:

- Run the FSDT Live Update

- Be sure you don't have ANY previous GSX.CFG file you made or downloaded, either under %APPDATA%\Virtuali\Airplanes or under the Simobjects\Airplanes\PMDG 747-8 folders inside the simulator. If have such files, remove them, otherwise they'll take precedence over the GSX internal configuration.
