Make Runways does not always create entries for active airports


Recommended Posts

Peter, thank you for the nice contributions to the simulation community.


My problem is that upon adding and activating some airports (that are not included in the default library) to my simulator and then running Make Runways, the output file r4.csv generated by Make Runways does not have some of the newly added airports.
However, I see in that Make Runways read the content from the Scenery.cfg as shown in the Runways.txt file.

This can be seen in the files posted in this link ( R4.csv, Runways.txt and Runways.csv )

https://www.dropbox.com/s/ctmqjfipgb8nmdt/Files-Make-Runways-Issue.zip?dl=0

The added airports that I can see well and are recognized by my simulator but do not show in R4.csv are LETJ and KCGX

And here is my setup information:

Simulator: Prepar3D 3.4.18.19475

Make Runways 4.694

Windows 10

I would very much appreciate help on how to make all active airports from my simulator show up in the R4.csv. This is the file format that AirHispania, the Virtual Airline I fly with uses as input for quality analysis of our flights

There's no mention of LETJ at all in the Runways.TXT file. I've no idea what file it is supposed to be in. And the KCGX folder has no BGL recognised as an Airport Facilities Data (AFD) file.  When you say they are "well recognised in the simulator" do you mean just visuals, or are they selectable with runways and/or gates in the "Go To Airport" dialogue?

If they are so featured then they are included in some strange format of AFD which I, and therefore MakeRunways, have not encountered before -- neither FS9 nor FSX format. Are they P3D only format using some new system?

I also see there are many others at the end of the Runways.txt file, equally with no AFD files. Are they airports too? (See befow).

I talked with Francisco.

He had a few wrong entries in P3D's scenery setup. Those were pointing inside the scenery folder for each airport and should have been pointing one level higher.

No issue with Make Runways - All is OK....
