Michael Dougherty Posted January 24, 2014 Report Posted January 24, 2014 I used makerunways and a particular airport's frequencies aren't showing up in the f4.csv file. They are showing up in f5.csv though. The airport is at the top of my scenery list in fsx. f4: CYFC,Fredericton,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 f5: CYFC,0,0,"Fredericton" CYFC,1,127.55,"CYFC" CYFC,5,121.70,"FREDERICTON" CYFC,6,119.00,"FREDERICTON" CYFC,10,124.30,"MONCTON" CYFC,11,126.70,"HALIFAX" Thanks, Mike

Email to petedowson@btconnect.com. Pete I looked in Runways.txt and it stops at layer 13 (out of 131). So this airport isn't in it. Should every airport be in that file? Thanks, Mike
Michael Dougherty Posted January 25, 2014 Author Report Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) I believe I fixed it. The scenery folder was not in FSX's main folder so I think that was causing the problem. Edited January 25, 2014 by Michael Dougherty
Pete Dowson Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 I looked in Runways.txt and it stops at layer 13 (out of 131). So this airport isn't in it. Should every airport be in that file? All layers should be listed. 13 doesn't even cover the default FS layers! Are you sure yor editor isn't simply truncating the file -- it will be VERY big, far too big for many editors! Tell me its size. I believe I fixed it. The scenery folder was not in FSX's main folder so I think that was causing the problem. No. Most of my scenery layers are not even on the same drive as FS. The paths are all obtained from the SCENERY.CFG file, and MakeRunways processes it just like FS does. And in any case it wouldn't explain the difference between the f4 and f5 files. I've receieved the BGL and will look at this tomorrow -- I'm out all day today. Pete
Pete Dowson Posted January 25, 2014 Report Posted January 25, 2014 I've receieved the BGL and will look at this tomorrow -- I'm out all day today. Just had time to do a quick test. I get these results: f5.csv: CYFC,0,0,"Fredericton" CYFC,1,127.55,"CYFC" CYFC,5,121.70,"FREDERICTON" CYFC,6,119.00,"FREDERICTON" CYFC,10,124.30,"MONCTON" CYFC,11,126.70,"HALIFAX" f4.csv: CYFC,Fredericton,127.55,0,121.70,119.00,0,0,0,0 I can only think that something is wrong with your SCENERY.CFG file. Yet I still cannot understand how F4 and F5 can differ so much -- they are both built at the same time with the same data, which is scanned only once. I'm using MakeRunways version 4.673. You didn't mention which version you were using. Note that the SCENERY.CFG file is located in your windows "ProgramData" settings -- MakeRwys only uses a SCENERY.CFG file in the FS folder if it cannot find the one in the correct place. Just for a cross-check, the entry in Runways.txt is: Airport CYFC :N45:52:07.9966 W066:32:14.0004 68ft Country Name="Canada" State Name="New Brunswick" City Name="Fredericton" Airport

Michael Dougherty Posted January 25, 2014 Author Report Posted January 25, 2014 Thanks for the help Peter. I don't know what was wrong, but I somehow fixed it. My FSX was in program files, so I allowed all users full access to it so that may have fixed it. I was originally using an older version of makerwys as well.
