Plan-G / Re: Scenery.cfg, Put checkmark yes or no
August 19, 2015, 08:23:36 PM
Hi Paul,

Thanks for your reply.

The procedure about different scenery.cfg is familiar to me. I use different .cfg already.

Perhaps my question is not clear due to my English.
The general idea is that I want to have a specific scenery.cfg, only for the use of building a Plan_G database. That's my objective!  For the sake of this post lets give it the name "Plan-G Databasebuiding.cfg"

If Plan-G doesn't do anything with addon-scenery's, (that do not have nav. or airport information) why enter them in the "Plan-G Databasebuiding.cfg". It speeds up the process.

Regards

Plan-G / Scenery.cfg, Put checkmark yes or no
August 18, 2015, 10:54:15 AM
Question about putting checkmarks in scenery.cfg

I want to have a clean, tidy but most for all a fast scenery.cfg. So I created some cfg. for different regions in the world. That speeds up the fsx start-up.

Monitoring the database buildup Plan-G I notice that Plan-G checks scenery maps containing only photorealistic info also, just because it has a checkmark.
I wonder if the checkmark is necessary for building the database.

As far as I know Plan-G builds a database containing nav.aids and airport information.
If so, can I uncheck these area's in the scenery.cfg?

The idea behind this is to create a scenery.cfg containing only the area's involving the database Plan-G information, so databasebuilding can be executed fast.

Thanks for your info...

Hello Tim,

Just installed version 3.1.3 and as you predicted, no problems anymore.

VNST is visible direct after instaltion Plan-G and after starting FSX and loading my flighplan everything looks as it should be. As far as I can tell right now, all the missing airports are visible and accessible in the the airport-finder.

Without doing something extra my personal waypoints are also obtainable in this new version. Hurray!


Still wondering what went wrong. I ask this because if it is something I did, it might occur again.

Thanks

Thanks Tim for your answer,

Yes, the airports are visible in FSX, Garmin, with the airport information altitude- runways etc.
And no, if i open "Find Airport"in Plan-G, VNST isn't availible.

I will try to fix the database as mentioned.

Will report the result in due time.

I don't know for sure but is it possible that you have an illegal version of W7?

Plan-G / missing airport info on map
August 11, 2015, 01:14:50 PM
Hope someone can help,

Flying over Nepal I am missing airport information of some airports.
Normaly visible in the information drop box and on the map as a round pictogram.
For instance: Airport VNST is only depicted as a red triangle on the map and no info is appearing in the information drop box.
I have checked the scenery.cfg and can't find something wrong with it.

13:06:08.7 BNXWorld0.bgl Apts: 0 Vors: 0 Ndbs: 0 wpts: 0 Approaches: 0 Bdys: 7914
13:06:08.7 BNXWorld1.bgl Apts: 0 Vors: 0 Ndbs: 0 wpts: 0 Approaches: 0 Bdys: 9143
13:06:08.8 bvcf.bgl Apts: 0 Vors: 0 Ndbs: 0 wpts: 0 Approaches: 0 Bdys: 4201
This seems ok also.

I added the missing airport ICAO names in magenta on the attached map.

What's wrong??

Hope you can help
