Heya guys am wanting to have a go at adding an airport to my scenery but am stuck at the point if creating a TSC file. How do you "CREATE" a TSC file? I had the same issue with the TMC file when I was learning how to create my scenery. In fact if it wasnt for the sample one, or better still the new GeoconverterHelper creating one for us I am still none the wiser. Can we have a "Sample" TSC file too ?? lol, also while I'm at it, when in MyGeoPosition and we right click on the points of interest to get the Longatude/Lattitude and elevation do we click on the "COPY" box to the right then paste that information into the TSC file?, thats of course when we get one
Creating a TSC file?

Here is a SAMPLE TSC for you to use.
\Be sure to enter your own coordinates and airport information per the wiki tutorial HERE
For the MoGeoPosition site, it's best to type in the coordinates manually to avoid issues.

Oh wow thanks a million Jeff, I was afraid you would say I should write it in manually, this ain't over yet lol

No problem Andy.
I added a sample to the wiki for download as well thanks to you. I can't think of everything
-
I used the copy button on the MoGeoPosition site but I had to switch the coordinates, then it worked
-
That's probably where I will stumble, I wouldn't have a clue how to switch the coordinates 😎 and don't worry Jeff us slightly impared ones will think of everything lol
-
OK, by switching I mean this:
Just went to my hometown in MyGeoPosition and pressed the upper copy button
This is on my clipboard : 51.6501220,3.9184980
That's a lot of numbers but if you take a look carefully you can see the switch
This is the way to fill in out in your tsc [3.9184980 51.6501220]
Also notice that you have to replace the comma with a space.

Oh deary me lol, OK thanks so much for this I will give it a Crack after work this arvo, once again cheers for this

I'm on MyGeoPosition now I've opened a new folder (not my sample tsc yet) and am clicking on copy but it won't give me the option to paste? Another hurdle here😎
-
OK I've just opened my sample TSC file and it DOES give me the option to paste the content from MyGeoPosition so do I delete what is in the sample TSC then paste the coordinates into it and then switch them, is this correct?
-
You have to ope your tsc file to paste coordinates into that and change names and more.
Look here, scroll a little down and you see the tsc explained and were you have to paste everything in the tsc file.
-
Yes you are correct, note that you have to insert different coordinates for main, tower and runway, explained in the link
-
OK cheers sorry about this Dree I feel it's too early in the morning for me 😎
-
It's 21:41 in the evening!
-
It looks really confusing in the Wiki lol, hopefully there maybe a video tutorial on how to do this haha 😎
-
If you tackle the orange notes in the tsc on the wiki one by one it's a breeze..
-
Nah its all good I'll figure it out eventually😎

Is this step done for just the Airports main coordinates or do you have to switch all coordinates in this manner?
-
Ok Ive just accidently deleted my sample TSC file so will have to start again blahg! But I'm sure Ive just gone through all the steps in the tutorial and made the necessary changes to the TSC file, also I switched the main airport coordinates. Then I created a folder inside Documents/Aerofly/scenery/places and tried to copy and paste the contents of my TSC file into it but it would not give me the option to paste, So, desperate:) I just moved the whole TSC file into the folder then went into Aerofly but as I suspected, NO AIRPORT bummer, I must be doing something wrong
-
Good morning, It is indeed for all coordinates.
