The buildings are not controlled by the AFCAD. But, of course, as already explained, if you install another AFCAD, it must be made for our PHNL and not obviously for the default one or for another scenery, otherwise you'll see BOTH buildings.
And, as also already explained, if you just want to edit our own AFCAD, you need to be sure the editor you use doesn't set the "DeleteAllApproaches=true" parameter when it saves the file back, otherwise you'll lose all approaches, since the AFCAD we provide doesn't contain any approaches, and relies on the default ones, which will be ignored if that parameter is set to True. But Approaches don't have any effect on buildings.
anappy:
Ok thanks. I just won't do anything I guess. To bad would love to see all the runways in use

I've only been able to takeoff from runway 8R, never allowed to "select alternative runway" other than 8L
Even if winds are favorable for either runway 8 and 4.

Since there are other users in this thread that are saying they are always assigned to the 4s, assuming you are all using the AFCAD that comes with the scenery, it's clear that it supports multiple runways.
If you are not allowed to request the other runways manually from the ATC, can be caused if you modifed the AFCAD yourself and used an AFCAD editor that sets the "DeleteAllApproaches=true" parameter when saving the AFCAD back, you will LOSE all the Approaches.

As already explained, in order for a runway to be discarded, it's not enough for winds to be just favorable to the other one, they need to be favorable with a enough margin to offset the overall runway assignment score.

I haven't edited the afcad file but just to be sure I reinstalled. I understand how FS assigns runways, but in every other airport including your other sceneries, I can request runways on the ground or in the air.
