Jetway and Followme car
« on: March 27, 2017, 10:07:36 pm »
New at this..Does anybody know which gate at Atlanta Hartsfield  for PMDG 747v3 has an operating jetway (in the menu..says this gate has a default jetway) rather use a GSX jetway?  and second.. When ready for taxi..can the followme car take you to the runway thru the maze of taxiways? lol  or is that only on landing?

Thanks,
Bob M.

There's no such thing as a "GSX jetway". GSX doesn't handle, doesn't change, doesn't affect, and doesn't interact in any way with FSX default Jetways.

If GSX says a parking has a default FSX jetway ( labeled with "/J" on the menu ), it's because the scenery developer made the scenery that way, and nothing in GSX will change that.

If GSX says a parking has a SODE jetway, ( labeled with "/JS" on the menu ), it's because the scenery developer made the scenery jetways using SODE so GSX could interact with them.

If GSX says a parking doesn't have a jetway, but you can SEE one, it's because the scenery developer made the scenery with fake jetways, and nothing in GSX will change that or let alone animate it.

The GSX Follow me car can be used both to go from a runway to a parking, and vice-versa.
