I got an update on Steam today, more than 300MB

Hi

Quote from ApfelFlieger

Heliports are only shown in FS4 if I have selected a helicopter as the aircraft

I tried that, but the heliport shows on the map, but not in the scenery

To suppress FS4's own buildings and plants, you have to use Tamaras - works great.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is 'Tamaras'?

Quote from ApfelFlieger

Try this one:

- rename the tap-dates to lpsc01.tap (this ICAO code is not assigned)

- change the ICAO code in lpsc01.tap from LPSC to LPSC01

- also enter a short name (FS4 always displays the short name)

I will try that, and all your other suggestions.

Thanks a lot for the patience to write all this detailed help

Hi

I'm having some small issues with the small airfields i'm creating

LPSC:

The center of this airfield on the map is a bit to the right of the proper airfield. I tried to change the ‘model_center’ value manually in the TAP file, but it doesn’t change, on the map

Plus, the helipad is not showing inside the sim

LPSR:

In this airfield, I added some parking spots, but in the Location menu of the sim, when selecting one of this parking spots, I don’t get the options for ‘ready for taxi’, ‘before engine’ start and ‘cold and dark’ on the side panel

Also, there are some buildings belonging to the airfield that I added, but those buildings are already present on the cultivation, so I have buildings overlapping. Is there any way to exclude those cultivation buildings, and replace them with the ones I placed?

LP0048:

This one is a small dirt airstrip. The problem is it’s not showing on the sim at all

Here are the TAP files:

LPSC.tap.txt lpsr.tap.txt LP0048.tap.txt

Any help is appreciated. Thanks a lot

Hi.

In the C172's cockpit, shouldn't this read 'pitot heat'?

admin Thanks for the answer.

I'm doing LPSC, an airfield that I know very well. Your assets are very good, but, as a 3D artist myself, I would like to try adding some custom buildings to the airfield.

I still don't get the numbers in the position field in the custom object section of the .tap file. They don't look like coordinates

HI.

I have two questions

1 - Is it possible to add custom objects to the airport through the web interface, or just by editing the .tap file manually?

2 - What are the units of the values in "<[vector2_float64][position][68147.00000000 43026.00000000]>" in the example's custom object , and what are they relative to?

No problem, we use what we have. It would be nice for some special cases, though

Is there a way to scale the buildings? If not, that would be nice, even if in small amounts, so that we can adjust them to the footprints in the satellite image

Hi.

I've been using the airport creation tool, and it seem very good. I was just having an issue with it duplicating several times the apron I draw. I don't know if it is a bug, or my mistake. I exported the tap file, edited it to remove the duplicates, and then deleted the airport and imported the file, and it solve the problem.

This made me think it would be very nice to have a side pane with a list of all the objects in our scene (a kind of an Outliner, as seen in Blender or Maya, for example), where we could select or delete any object

Hi.

Thank you for your answer, but I'm still missing something. If I put the Magnetos in the M1 position, the propeller rotates a bit, about 30 to 40 degrees clockwise, but nothing more, even if I wait some time.

As for the rolling, I thought about that, but the rolling should be in the direction of some inclination of the ground, but it always goes back, no matter where I start (tried several airports already).

Also, what is this for?

Thanks once more.

Hi!

Can someone please help me with this two questions about the Fokker?

1 - How can we start the plane, from a cold and dark state? I'm missing something here, because I can't find no way to start the engine...

2 - Is it normal that, when i start in a cold and dark state, on any ramp (at least in the ones I tried), the plane starts to move backwards slowly? I thought it could be the wind, so I turned the wind and turbulence to the minimum, and the plane continues moving backwards, at the same slow speed. Am I doing something wrong, or is it a bug?

Thanks for the help

Hi!

Today I had this strange bug with a cloud. Anyone else having this problem?

Better and more varied weather, with rain and storms is one of my main wishes for Aerofly FS4, and one thing that would make me use this sim a lot more (even without good weather, I still use it a lot, though)

That's great. Thanks!

Yes, I've noticed this also...

And it happens on the lower screen also:

And I saw this on another plane, just can't remember if it was the 777 or the A380, and now I can't reproduce it...

Hi!

Loved the video. Can´t wait to try the Concorde.

By the way, what plane is that to the side of Concorde on the menu?

Quote from FrankLFRS

I always prepare my flight for the A320 with the "flight plan maker" of Aerofly. Create a screenshot of it. Delete the flight plan. Start from Cold & Dark location.

The screenshot + the cheats, I program the MCDU without airport charts.

I will try to do that

I didn't know that. Thanks a lot!

Quote from FrankLFRS

Cheats in the MCDU,

Hi

What cheats are those?

Quote from TomC RLG

Only a big update if you are enrolled in beta (~24Gb download). I'm still downloading this right now, lol!

Edit; Already discussed in an earlier thread. Probably should be an official one posted imho.
