Hi,

Yes that's what I meant, thanks. I also did not know the "folder name" = "file name" rule, thanks for that.

Now it's time to start the Scenery tutorial indeed!

Thanks again

Kevin

Thank you both for all your help!

I've tried all the variants above, the airport shows up correctly in the "Location" screen but I still get no runway when actually loading the simulation. Should I reboot or something, is restarting the game not enough?

Thanks

Kevin

Hello,

I am trying to add my first simple airport on the island of Tenerife, which is a no-DLC zone as you know (maybe it's the problem?). I created the TSC file and it will actually show correctly in the "Location" map of the game, but when firing up the sim, the runway will not show as you can see on the attached screenshot. Oddly, the PAPI is there!

I also tried putting the "runway.tmb" file I found in the Hawaii user-contributed DLC (sorry, just testing!) but no luck either.

Here is the TSC file :

Any wisdom would be much appreciated, thanks!
