Problem

[cnc]

Hi, I love Plan-G but I have same problem.

I'm trying the release 0.9.1.423 but I noticed a problem with the imported airfield.
I have in FSX a lot of very small airfiled but no one of these have been imported when I created the FSX database in Plan-G.

The other issue is that if I change the Airspace display setting when I zoom in or out the displayed airspaces change. So every time that I have to zoom I also have to change the airspace that I want to see.

Thanks a lot.

P.S: This software is very cool but unfortunately it is not so fast as I wish.

I have in FSX a lot of very small airfiled but no one of these have been imported when I created the FSX database in Plan-G.

Please give an example of an airfield that has not imported, and upload the log file (Plan-G_Log.txt from the Plan-G folder) that covers your attempt to import it.

The other issue is that if I change the Airspace display setting when I zoom in or out the displayed airspaces change. So every time that I have to zoom I also have to change the airspace that I want to see.

Please refer to the manual, page 20. The map airspace settings apply to individual zoom levels.

Please find here enclosed the airports that it doesn't import and the Plag-G log file.
One of my friends imported all these airport without problem.

Thanks for your help.

The scenery builds perfectly fine here. Have you installed it correctly in FSX?

The log file doesn't include any actions -- you need to perform the database build BEFORE sending me the log!

Ok, I try to explain what happen in English.
Yes, I installed it correctly in FSX because I see all of them in FSX and in FSC (Flightsim Commander).

I don't know if this is important but I noticed that, after the installasion of FS Global 2010, same airports are under the ground level.
For example, in the airfiled that I sent you, take in consideration LILO.
Yestarday, I tried to import many many time without success. Today, I changed the elevation of LILO and now it is above the ground level.
I imported again all that airfield and NOW I see on the map the LILO airport. For example I don't see in Plan-G the airfield SO02.
I attached the new log file.

Another issue:
I use two monitors: main with resolution 1920x1200 and the secondary with 1280x1024. The secondary is 90° rotated (vertical). If I move Plan-G in the secondary monitor and change to full view the screen doesn't fit all the monitor. A little part in the bottom part of the monitor is not covered by the software.
(Video card: NVIDIA GTX275, drivers updated).

P.S: writing this post, I'm thinking about the directory where these airfiled have been installed:
F:\FSX\Addon Scenery\AVIOSUPERFICI\avio_lombardia
with inside /scenery and /texture

do you think that I have to change these directory in order to allow to Plan-G to find?

Thanks. That's interesting. Scenery.cfg is normally located in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX, but on your PC, Plan-G is looking in:

21:46:47 Building database for FSX
21:46:47 FS directory is: F:\FSX\
21:46:47 Scanning Scenery.cfg (C:\Users\Claudio\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\Scenery.cfg)
21:46:47 Scanning folder 120: Addon Scenery


and this looks like it isn't the active cfg file, since it does not contain any addons. It includes LOLQ, since you edited it with AFX, and that saved the new file in Addon Scenery\Scenery, which is part of the default path set (so it will always be included).

What I suggest you try is to set the location of the cfg in Plan-G to the default (Go to Options->Locations, and there you can set the paths), and then try again. Hopefully it will pick up the correct cfg.

I solved the problem.
Thanks a lot.

The wrong directory.....is a long story. :-)

What about the problem of the maximize view (not completed) on the second display 90° rotated?

Thanks.

Don't know. Haven't seen anything like that before. Will need to investigare.
