Hello,
Can somebody confirm that it's working with the updated LFMN also?
Thanks
Why not? Same Afcad, and they just changed the textures to PBR
I am by the way retouching some jetways. as i have been also upgrading many sceneries to v4. next friday i will let u guys know.
Cheers

Unfortunately you're not right.
Not only PBR, but new AFCAD and about 30 changed parking lots/positions.
And in the manual of the new updated scenery they say to delete any GSX config files, so I can confirm that Cartayna file unfortunately doesn't work.
well that is odd, for 3 of us were using it last night in LFMN with no problem at all. have you tested it?

Hi Swordfish,

Just did a walkthrough in the airport, and the .ini file of LFMN v1.4 (PBR) works perfectly with the old file. However, I have placed the new one with a minor changes in the jetways style in certain positions and some other things.. but it works just fine. Those parking postions that have been added to the AFcad get absorbed automatically once you open and close the configurator. It adds them. They are standard parkings with no jetways.
I have replaced the .ini file on the Cartayna One Drive.

Cheers!

**********************  LIKE EVERY FRIDAY, NEW CONFIGURATIONS ON CARTAYNA FILES *********************Hello everybody!

Today I bring you today thanks to our loyal friends who started this project since day one, www.SimMarket.com and www.simflight.de a small but extremely fun scenery to fly to TNCM - St. Marteen by Fly Tampa. If you have flown there to an event, a crowded airport here can be a nightmare when pushing back and taxi, this V4 file, as the others, will give you at least a perfect pushback.

I have spent this week upgrading a lot of configurations to V4. Also updated the LFMN configuration for the v1.4 PBR version that has just been released.. is worth the try, and if you had purchased it before, you only have to pay a few bucks to get the shinny PBR version... very very cool. (https://secure.simmarket.com/justsim-nice-cote-dazur-airport-lfmn_fsx-p3d-(en_10962).phtml)

So check the Scenery lists for all the configurations that you are not up to date! 70% of Cartayna Files are now available in V4. I will continue to update all till complete.

Have a great weekend flying and testing this awesome sceneries, and see you next week!


All the best!

Warning message when at modified airports.
« Reply #559 on: March 29, 2019, 11:27:22 pm »
Hi Javier
Great work with the mods to the Gsx 2 customisation files but I have encountered a problem at airports modified with the new files.

A warning message flags up everytime I load a modified new airport. The message states that "the simulator has been updated and that the GSX2 control panel should be launched to patch the jetways with the scenery."

I customised Malaga LEMG with the new files and when flying in there today, on final approach the warning sound came on (similar to apply brakes to get gsx services) and the above message was displayed.

I have followed the instructions to the letter but cant get rid of this message. When I run the control panel outwith the sim, all files show they have been properly excluded.

Any ideas??

Many thanks

Iain

Hello Ian!

Yes, that is an error message that should be ignored. I read about it on a comment of Umberto, and I cant remember what was.. bad memory I have. I do know that is some sort of a glitch, and that they were working on it (i think).. What i do know is that it happened to me a couple of times, and then it stopped. I have been uninstalling and installing a lot GSX lately to be able to run the beta testing that we have been doing with the new release, and is probably gone in my gsx since the last time i installed gsx2... so try doing so.  The message has no effect anyway. you can also just ignore it.

cheers.

tested. works fine.  a couple of you have been having problems at first logging in, or setting your account. No idea why. Ask Yves by msg how he fixed it. In One Drive I have the capability of knowing the rates of downloads, and users seem to be downloading pretty good.. by the hundreds just this past 24h.

Hi Javier,

I am trying out one of your configurations and am getting inconsistent results. I first started with KSFO since I am very familiar with this airport flying into it 2x per month. At KSFO, I see some of the changes like gate signs and docking station but not all (missing glass jetway). I also noticed the gate sign for E64 is not attached to the jetway.

Here's the steps I did to install the changes:
1) Created backup folder.
2) Go to %APPDATA%/Roaming/Virtuali/GSX and move KSFO_a8rylm.ini to the new backup folder.
3) Go to C:\ProgramData\12bPilot\SODE\xml and copy Flightbeam_KSFOHD.xml to the backup folder.
4) Go to C:\ProgramData\12bPilot\SODE\SimObjects and copy Flighteam_KSFOHD to the backup folder
5) Launched Prepar3d.
6) Select from menu Restart Coautl and rebuild airport cache.  I did this at least 4 times.

I am unclear the reason to backup the SimObjects or XML file as neither of these get updated as part of this installation. The only real update I can tell is the INI file change you provide. What steps are I missing? I noticed the ini you provide has a slight change with the AFCAD_PATH. Perhaps this is what I am missing.

Thanks,
Steve

FYI: I attached 4 images. Hopefully they get uploaded with this post.

Hello, yes, i dont write the instructions like that anymore. to complicated, but in your case what you misread is: "Create a backup folder in a place you want to keep your sode in case you want to go back to the default Sode Jetways after removing them." you copied them to the backup folder. I wrote instructions like that for a time because somebody got really stressed about just manipulating his files and blamed me for suggesting to do so. Which is basically the essence of P3d. retouching files ALL THE TIME.
I am going to rewrite that instructions in the line of the ones i do today, so do this:

1. Delete that backup. is absurd.
2. Go to your Sode Folder C:\ProgramData\12bPilot\SODE\xml and set to .OFF the file extension: Flightbeam_KSFOHD.xml -> Flightbeam_KSFOHD.OFF.

enter p3d and voila.

The reason why it was not working is that my not so clear instructions, made you not do the "removing them".  You cant have a SODE .xml active and a GSX ".ini" file work at the same time. Sode overrides the other.

cheers.

Hm, well, when I hit the link it says something about "this object is possibly not available anymore" (in german) and directs me to a microsoft account login page.
But your link a few posts earlier (https://1drv.ms/f/s!AhTH-vsr5l8biitZv81ztm0BMXtr) works just fine though, it leads me to a page with all the folders where I can download everything without having to have a microsoft account, just like with dropbox. I don't have a microsoft account and I don't want to have one.....

Thanks for the info, have updated that link that works for you without an account so it also works for users with no interest in OneDrive.
cheers.
