    FS2k2 crashes during approach

    in Sim-Wings Support Forum

    Posted

    Hi,

    Yesterday I spent a lot of time excluding files from our scenery to see what kind of problem this could be.

    Once I thought it was the AI Traffic bgl, but afterwards I put the landclass and streets without AI and it also crashed, always near VOR Perales PDT. It seems not to be a sistematic error.

    We will go on with testing today.

    Regards

    Hi,

    The localizer is really a new aspect, but we thougt that the problem has to do with the landclass files. If you want, please try it out.

    But we are working to detect the problem. We will infor about it when we are sure to resolve the problem.

    Thank you very much to inform about this autopilot coincidence.

    With kind regards

    New LEBL afcad problem

    in Sim-Wings Support Forum

    Posted

    Hi Himar,

    There are limitations in the posibilities of AFCAD, caused buy the flightplans of Microsoft. We didn´t want to change deeply the default actions, because if you close a runway, MS still uses this one if the wind is in that direction and we cant avoid that.

    In reality LEBL uses more or less 65 % Rwy 20 to start and 25 for landing, otherwise they use 07 for starting and landing.

    Hi Mindnight Music,

    I will see what happens, although starting at 25 is not usual.

    General:

    With crossed Runway its a problem, the same strange things occures at Barajas because of the MS default flight plans which overwrites the good AFCAD intentions. If we can improve it in the future we will do it.

    Look also for freeware Afcad files, I know there is one for Madrid with some more traffic as ours.

    Afcad is also a very easy program to use, and one of the best programs I saw. Maybe you want try it once by yourself.

    Regards

    g3d.dll - error during Madrid - approach

    in Sim-Wings Support Forum

    Posted

    Hallo Chrissy,

    Also, anscheinend passiert dieser Fehler auf einigen Systemen, es muss aber sehr selten passieren, da es erst die zweite Meldung ist.

    Es gibt aber eine Lösung, und zwar auf der Webseite von http://www.jobia.de, Punkt 12 - da wird ein offensichtlicher FS2004 Bug mit fremden Landclassfiles erklärt und es kann dafür ein Patch dowgeloadet werden.

    Damit geht es dann einwandfrei.

    Viele Grïsse

    Help. FS2004 Updates

    in Sim-Wings Support Forum

    Hello,

    Please make shure to overrite the textures in the texture folder of your scenery. Maybe you copied them in the main scenery folder. You shold get a message like this: This files exists. Do you want to overrite them.

    Say yes to all and it should work.

    Ibiza: You should activate all 3 sceneries if ypu want to have the mesh an also the static aircrafts.

    Kind Regards

    Hi,

    Please search for *static*.bgl in your FS2002 scenery folder of the corresponding Airports and rename them to for example *static*.off

    So if you want to activate them you can rename them again to the .bgl extension.

    It must be also explained in the manual.

    Regards and also a happy new year

    Madrid Barajas FS9

    in Sim-Wings Support Forum

    Posted

    The test installation we made copied the AF2_LEMD.bgl file to the...\fs9\addon scenery\scenery\ folder.

    If it isn´t there, maybe its an installing problem.

    Thanks for the advise.

    Note: This AI Traffic bgl only puts the Microsoft Airplanes at the gates and let ATC call the right Taxiways and ways to and from the Runways. It does not deliver real airlines or so on. For that you need a program like My traffic or Ultimate traffic.

    Best Regards

    Hi,

    I think you could rename the following Bgls still having a good Airport of Barajas: (only rename the .bgl to .off, so you can always go back to the original file renaming it from .off to . bgl).

    The files are in \Madrid-Barajas2004\scenery\

    lemd_static-accesories Stairs, and other Grondvehicles

    lemd_dyn.bgl Dynamic scenery

    lemd_dynlib.bgl Dynamic library

    Madrid_city.bgl Buildings Madrid

    lemd_5.bgl Trees

    lemd_6.bgl Muñoza

    lemd_8.bgl Reflectors Taxiways

    lemd_10.bgl Streets

    lemd_12.bgl Lines-red

    Another tipp is to top the frames at 25-30, it distributes the work between the grafic card and the main prozessor more eficient.

    I hope this will give you some frames back.

    Regards

    Manfred

    Hello simwings few questions

    Hi Wilson,

    The scenery is very detailed and costs frames, we know. At some places it is normal that the framerate goes down. But at the aprach you shold get 12-18 with your sustem.You can get 5-6 frames more if you deactivate the groundshadows, also you can rename some not very important bgl´s like Madrid_city.bgl ore some lines. Look here in the forum, I attached a bgl file list to see what every bgl means.

    With kind regards

    Problem with Madrid

    in Sim-Wings Support Forum

    Posted

    Well, I hope it won´t be the last solution, I´ll investigate about it.

    Runways: They use Allways 33 for landing and 36L for starts in North configuration and 15 for starts and 18R for landing in south configuration. Exeptionally the use 36R/18L, but this runway will soon disapear.

    Best regards

    I know a german site, http://www.jobia.de, were ar some patches for FS2004 when the simulator crashes. There you can download a patch which resolves this problem which has obviosly to do with the landclass files.

    The problem is that normally with FS2002 this problem is unknown. Did you try the scenery without our landclass files ?

    Regards

    Manfred

    Perfect but ...

    It is posible that you have 11 frames at some places, but you get 5 or 6 more if you quit the ground shadows.

    But normally at my system a 2,4 Ghz Pentium with Geforce 4600 Ti 128 Mb Ram I have about 12 minimum with all on and at he aproach I get min 15-18.

    See also the bgl file list at this forum (answering Terry) - you could rename some bgls which are not important like madrid city to improve the frames.

    Hi Terry,

    There is only one installer which lets you decide for which FS you like to install. The files always are named Madrid-Barajas2004.

    Please try to install the files manually step by step:

    (This is the installing for FS2002 - the same installing works for FS2004 but the Landclass and AI Traffic goes diffrent.)

    First in a temporary folder to your disk, then copy the scenery bgl files in for example FS2002\Addon scenery\Madrid2004\scenery

    and the texture files to FS2002\Addon scenery\Madrid2004\texture.

    Now you have to go to FS2002 scenery library and "Add Area" in which you select FS2002\Addon scenery\Madrid2004. Confirm the selection and try if it works.

    Procced the same way with the static Arcrafts if you want to install them and try. Atention: The static scenery layer must be above the main scenery layer (= a lower layer number).

    Afterwards copy the 2 Landclass files the main scenery folder in FS2002 - FS2002\scenery, try it out and

    at last copy the AI Traffic file (AI-traffic-FS2002-barajas_AFD.bgl) to FS2002\scenerydb\AFD_Madrid-Barajas2004\scenery\.

    Note that you must activate all this scenery layers in the FS2002 scenery library and the AI Traffic Area must have a very low layer (= high number). If your total layer numbers are 100, put the AI Traffic layer at 98.

    Please try all this steps, its the same installation the installer does.

    Asure also that you don´t have mesh terrain activated in this area, maybe there is a conflict.

    To know what every bgl file means, I publish here a BGL fil list:

    BGL List Madrid-Barajas2004

    lemd_1_DEM.bgl Flatten

    I hope it helps to solve some instalation problems.

    The list helps also to remove some less important bgl´s to improve framerates.
