Hi Umberto
I'm at Gate 566 at UK2000 Heathrow v2 in Libardo Guzman's freeware 2011 Concorde.
Before the last update and any gsx.cfg editing, the belt loader used to come to the right rear door.
Following the last update, I can't get the belt loader to appear. Only the baggage truck pulls up (see picture).

The gsx.cfg looks like this:
[aircraft]
nosegear = 12.05
refueling = 1
[exit1]
pos = -1.35 17.45 4.6 5.0
code = 1
name = exit 1
[exit2]
remove = 1
[exit3]
remove = 1
[exit4]
remove = 1
[service1]
flip = 1
code = 3
name = exit 3
[service2]
remove = 1
[cargo1]
remove = 1
[cargo2]
pos = 1.05 -20.95 4.3 0.0
code = 0
uldcode = BELT
Can you spot why the belt loader might not be appearing?
Thanks ;)

There's an height condition on the Baggage Loader, that won't be called if the door is higher than 3.0 meters from ground. However, is probably redundant now, since it's possible to specify the loader type in the GSX.CFG file.
- Edit the FSX\Simobject\Misc\FSDT_Baggage_Loader\SIM.CFG file with a text editor
- Look for the following line:
condition = %(exitAlt)f >= 1.2 and %(exitAlt)f <= 3.0 and %(ULDCode)r == ""
and change it to:
condition = %(exitAlt)f >= 1.2 and %(exitAlt)f <= 4.5 and %(ULDCode)r == ""
The animation support up to 5.0 meters, but it's unlikely you'll ever find an airplane using belt loaders with doors higher than the Concorde.
-
Yes that's done the trick, thank you very much Umberto ;)
Also, I still get asked to open Exit 3 for the Catering Truck and I want it to ignore the door as I can't open it on Guzman's Concorde.
I've currently got the following:
[service1]
flip = 1
code = 0
name = exit 3
Is this correct?
-
Try to use just this:
[service1]
code = 0
-
Yep that worked too! Thanks Umberto, brilliant! :)

Hi Umberto
I no longer have a belt loader appearing for the Guzman Concorde after the last update. Are you able to get a belt loader to appear for this aircraft? It worked fine previously and I can't seem to get the new graphic editor to recognize the rear luggage door.
Please help! Thanks :)

I can't seem to get the new graphic editor to recognize the rear luggage door.
Before you enter the graphic editor, be sure the door IS enabled on the airplane configuration dialog
-
As I said, I haven't changed anything and it worked before ???
I've selected cargo #2 and "door without open/close checks" and selected BELT. See pic below. Do I need to do anything else to ENABLE the door?

The baggage train comes but not the belt loader?
-
There's no reason the baggage loader wouldn't show up, unless you forgot to Save the GSX.CFG file. If still doesn't work, try to reinstall GSX using the current full installer.
-
Mmm, I did reinstall but its still the same. I will try a couple of other things....
Thanks anyway Umberto

Managed to get the belt loader to appear now. I had to set the rear door slightly lower. It's not perfectly aligned with the door but its close enough and the only way I can get the loader to appear.
Love the new graphics editor Umberto, well done to you and all of the team at FSDT! :) :)

This is strange because, according to your screenshot, the door was set at 3.91 m high, and the belt loader has a display condition that the door should be between 1.2 m and 4.5 m so, it should have been well within range.
