Sorry thought I sent an email. The modified aircraft.cfg file did not work. Anything else I can do to help?

KORD gate K19 needs K19X to work (also with jetbridge) for the 777/787 variants. This should be labeled K119.

Also, still having an issue where the SODE jetways will not dock at most gates, even with the latest update.

by the way - all K gates are configured for 787/777 according to the real situation. Currently only the M gates should work with 747 - can you confirm that everything is fine with docking jetways to 747 at the M gates?

The M gates are working. But if K12 is a Heavy gate, why not add the 74’s?

I can confirm ILS 28C is STILL not working, going to have to do the fix after every update, I suppose. Not only that, but 04R at JFK and 22 at LGA arent working for me, either. This is getting ridiculous.

It's only 10C/28C, which uses the same freq.

According to my colleagues the modification for 747 can make a difference for 737, which are also being parked at K gates. That's why they are not being served by all types of planes.

Chicago Airports X - Missing all 3D buildings

Post by darim »

Hi, I have no buildings at all at any of the 3 Chicago X airports. See screenshot of KORD. Using P3D 4.5.
I have a number of ORBX add-ons (including FTX Global Vector, OpenLC North America, ORBX Meigs Field was installed, but I have uninstalled it, thinking it might have been the culprit - it had flattened the default Chicago city 3D buildings)).
I have reinstalled Chicago Airports X (as Administrator), checked that there are no Entries for Chicago X are in the Scenery.cfg.
Has anyone seen this before?

Hi.
There are 2 ways to achieve this result:
1. Wrong or no entry in the Add-ons section
2. Dublicated entries for the scenery (f/e one in scenery.cfg and one in Add-ons).

You may double check if you have checked the correct scenery.cfg as there are few of them. :)

Thanks for the help!
It is now fixed, but I am still not sure what the problem was. For sure a problem with my P3D configuration - not a problem with the scenery itself.
This is what I did:
I checked/rechecked/rechecked the scenery.cfg, nothing in there.
I deleted the scenery.cfg, forcing a clean one to be created. No change.
I deleted the ...\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons\Chicago X folder, and reinstalled Chicago X. No change.
I even moved the scenery files to a different directory outside of the P3D root and re-mapped all the add-on path info. No change. 3D buildings still missing.

Decided to follow the 'last resort' option and run the 'Delete Generated Files' script in the P3D root folder.

That fixed it :D Scenery looks normal at last, all buildings and static aircraft are present.
I then restored my original scenery.cfg. and all my scenery is back along with a fully working Chicago Airports X.
So, something in the P3D configuration was wrong, but I have no clue what it was.
The important part is that the scenery is working now.

Hi,

I'm having problems with the bridge on taxiway B (KORD). With mesh resolution set to 5m the aircraft falls through the bridge when crossing it. It seems to work with mesh resolution 1m (which the installer seems to set automatically), but then I have other problems (with mesh resolution 1m when landing with PMDG 747-8 the nose slams down just after touchdown), so I had to set it back to 5m.
I hope you can fix the problem with the bridge, apart from that problem I really love the scenery (as there are several other airports with similar bridges working fine with 5m mesh resolution, it should be possible to fix this).

Best regards,
Matthias
