Changing the AFCAD

[krsw757]

Is there a way to tweak the AFCAD that comes with the scenery? I've tried tweaking a few things around like airline codes and runway usage, but every time I make a change and save it, it reverts back to the original in the actual game. I'm using the program AFX to make the changes. Love the scenery and am not complaining since I can live without my changes. Was just curious if it can be altered at all and if I'm doing it the wrong way. I appreciate the feedback in advance!

Our AFCAD are 100% standard, and nothing in them prevents them to be edited. In fact, we designed the Live Update to specifically protect the AFCAD for being overwritten automatically, so you can edit (a backup will be made of your edits).

So, whatever problem you have editing the files, it's entirely related to the editor you use and what changes you made.

You stated "we designed the Live Update to specifically protect the AFCAD for being overwritten automatically" but every time live update is run all the AFCAD's I have customized are removed. Luckily I save a copy of all my custom AFCADs. Is there something I need to do to prevent the removal?

No, they aren't. They are copied in a backup folder which will be created in the scenery folder.

No need to do that, because the Live Update saved a backup copy for you.
