Jet Bridges not moving in Honolulu - but working in Lihue

(1/4) > >>

MDFMike:
I just purchased and installed Honolulu and Hawaiian Airports volume 1 last week.  Jetways move ok via CTRL-J at PHLI, but do not move at PHNL. Any feedback from others experiencing this issue, or any technical assistance would be appreciated. Running FSX under Windows 7 32-bit.

MDFMike:
Has anyone else experienced this problem?   Jetways in Honolulu PHNL do not move - CTRL-J.  I have no problem with the other FSDreamteam product - Hawaiian Airports V1.   Anyone? Thanks.

Nobody reported it before. I've checked now, just to be sure, and some random gates I've tried (7, 22 and 49) they all work fine.

Have you changed the supplied AFCAD in any way ? Jetways are dependent from the parking radius so, if you change it, they might stop working.

And of course, you should verify there isn't any other AFCAD for PHNL (other than the default). It's possible to check for duplicate AFCADs with the free FSX Airport Scanner.

MDFMike:
Sorry for delayed reply - I've been away on business. With trial and error - I was able to get jetways to move only after disabling MegasceneryX Honolulu in FSX Scenery settings. MegaSceneryx Honolulu uses an afcad called PHNL-HonoluluIntl.bgl in its own MegaSceneryX scenery directory. I did not modify any afcads.

I ran the AFCAD scanner after marking MegasceneryX Honolulu Disabled - Results:

AP_PHNL.BGL                 (Layer 154 - FSDream Team Honolulu - Type:User)
BR2.PHNL.BGL                (Layer 116 - MyTraffic 2010 - Type:User)
FSDT_PHNL_ALT.BGL       (Layer 001 - Default Terrain - Type:Stub)

MegasceneryX Honolulu is installed but disabled - FSDreamTeam scenery for Honolulu is highest priority - followed by FSDreamTeam Hawaiian Airports Hilo v1 and Lihue v1.

So, after I unchecked (disabled) MegasceneryX Hawaii Oahu in FSX Scenery Settings - the jetways now move - however - I see double-jetways at some gates - (like Gate 13, 17, 19, 24, 25 ... and some others).

Is there any way to get FSDreamTeam Honolulu jetways to move - and coexist with MegaSceneryX Honolulu enabled?

This is probably due to the My Traffic X AFCAD. You have to remove all duplicate AFCAD files.

No, other than removing all duplicate AFCADs.

The issue is: there's a bug in Flight sim with Exclude areas that excludes jetways and effects from the own AFCAD, not just from the below ones so, if we do an complete exclude that covers the whole airport, it will fix any problem with below AFCADs, but we would lose our own jetways and lights too. So, we had to painstakenly create lots of small local excludes to remove default objects, but this would only work for the default scenery, any other AFCAD would then require its own version of the exclude.

In any case, there's no need to disable the whole Megascenery area, simply remove the AFCAD BGLs.  And my TrafficX's.
