(Including the recent small airport additions in N Germany / Denmark ?). There was a slight problem with LCHM though - at the moment his data has your taxiways from v6 but the runways from v5, so they don't line up. I'll send it again and remind him about the runways! Hopefully I'll get rid of the rest of the data onto him by the time he updates again. Robin is using TaxiDraw himself now, as are a number of the regular X-Plane contributors, so there really should be no problem now :-) Cheers - Dave ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

Simply export your project in X-Plane format from the 'File' menu, and sent to to Robin: www.x-plane.org/home/robinp/Contact.htm I believe he can cope with TaxiDraw project format as well, and changed runways are no problem as long as you tell him. Now that he is reliably accepting our data again there is no need to store data ourselves - it's simply slowing my coding down. I guess it might become necessary again in the future if/when we extend the data format beyond what X-Plane offers, but we can cross that bridge when we come to it.

Well, TaxiDraw actually _does_ operate on runways, you just have to unlock the runway by using "Edit -> Unlock Runways". But if I understand correctly > In addition to: > Yes... rebuilding the scenery solve it, because it has been done > with the last apt.dat. it is not the airport database entry that you want to change. If the airport database entry actually differs from the Scenery you use then I suspect that someone checked an update to LFPO into the database in CVS _after_ Curt distributed the current Scenery set. You probably use the base package from CVS with the 0.9.8 Scenery. > If you are interested on it that new version is available here Oh, my current trouble with FlightGear on my worklplace at home is much larger than just a small offset of one airport in the Scenery ;-) Cheers, Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -- ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

Thanks for the answer. The scenery and the apt.dat content are not the same. If you try to take off on LFPO your aircraft is in the field outside of the runway. You cannot solve it with taxidraw, which do not operate on the runways. I did solve it, by rebuilding the tile including LFPO with Terragear. If you are interested on it that new version is available here You only have to replace the old files by these new ones. http://ghours.club.fr/LFPO-update.tar.gz -- Gerard ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

Orly is a well-known airfield which means the location is vermy much expected to be correct in the airport database. If the airport layout is incorrect, then the best bet is to correct this with TaxiDraw and send the result to David Luff. Just changing parts of the binary scenery doesn't help that much because it will be overridden with the next scenery update.

Re: [Flightgear-devel] Airport LFPO Paris Orly Update
Rather than keeping on my side a new version of the Airport Paris Orly I guess that you could be interested to get it. That Airport in the existing Scenery is wrong regarding the apt.dat Here an update which suit to that apt.dat and the Scenery File e000n40 The Airport and the corresponding tile as been rebuilt. Everything done with Terragear. You only have to replace the old files by these new ones. http://ghours.club.fr/LFPO-update.tar.gz -- Gerard ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
