Ash33m, can you provide a link to your SoPack you are using please?
My version doesn't store the strata settings, so it cannot be automated. I also cant edit sopack settings like you show on yours.

You can find it on my tuto : http://www.lurik.fr

But as i'm working to the new version of the calibration tool, i understand that you can use other version if you want. Futur tuto will show how to do with other version.

ASH33

Which of the videos you have produced explains how to put airfields onto the scenery please. I want to adapt my copy of the West & Wales 1.3 to include my local clubs.

Cheers

Hi mtbrider,

It is very easy !

1/ Load the scenery in Landscape Editor.

2/ Zoom to the place you want to add your local airport, and put the cursor of your mouse on the right middle airport place.

4/ Read and write the longitude, the latitude and the altitude of the airport's position, on the bottom line of landscape editor.

5/ Notch Airports on the left panel of Landscape editor (view/modify).

6/ Right click in a void place of the airport's list.

7/ Click onto Add in the pop menu.

8/ Fill the airport data.

9/ Click OK and your airport is added on the airport list.

10/ Flatten to the average altitude all over the airport place.

11/ Export to flightplaner map and save the scenery (menu File)

12/ Fly to watch your airport area, and flatten again if necessary (don't forget to save again)


You can add general feature with Landscape Editor (use generic Files) or make you own airport runways and hangar with Wings 3d or/and with runwaycreator.

That's all folks!

Thank you Xavier

Camphill created :D It is lat 53.305 lon -1.7291 height (PosL) 394. I thought it would let me save it as another file instead of converting the original so will not use it for internet flying, but that is not a problem for me. I did not flatten it and left it as is.
If I can get the real co-ordinates of other airfields can I do the same process? I would not recognise their location from a terrain file.

Cheers

Mark

Have you tried this link for the club co-ordinates. Most clubs have them on their web page :wink:
