OnCourse Software

Hi Dave,

I have the latest MakeRwys.exe and the LorbyScenery Export.exe. I ran the MakeRwys in admin mode, which I believe also launches the LorbySceneryEXport.exe. Runways file created and then I updated the database.

However, airport ENTC still shows Runways 01/19 instead of 18/36. It appears that MakeRwys is only seeing the default (stock) airport and not the Orbx Addon (Norway Scenery)even although it is listed in the LorbyScenery.cfg.

If I try to manually adjust the runways.csv file to 18/36 and rebuild the database, PF3 only sees runway 18. Any ideas how I can get the PF3 DB to see runway 36 at ENTC?

I've zipped up the debug_monitor.log as well as the runways.csv, lorbyscenery.cfg and the DebugRebuild.log.

Many thanks,

Have you seen this note on the MakeRwys download site?

Quote:

Also note that MakeRwys is not able to decode, or even find, the BGL files installed from the Microsoft Store which are encrypted and likely hidden. For airports added in this way the data you'll get will be from the default airports.

Hi Dave,

Yes, but I am using P3D. Regardless, even if I manually amend the runways.csv file to the correct runways, PF3 DB rebuild will not recognise RWY 36 (360). If I change it to any other then it works. Does RWY 36 need to be identified differently in order for PF3 to use it?

Thanks

Ken

Check your PF3_P3D_Runways.dat file to see which runways are shown in there

Hi Dave,

ENTC,0010,69.672867,18.911940,31,9.070,7821,110.90BDG,148,4.000,69.683319,18.918926,0,,
ENTC,0190,69.693771,18.925913,31,189.070,7821,109.90BDG,148,4.000,69.683319,18.918926,1273,,

It has the old runway designations.

I have the latest MakeRwys.exe and the LorbyScenery Export.exe. I ran the MakeRwys in admin mode, which I believe also launches the LorbySceneryEXport.exe.

From the MakeRwys README:

MakeRunways will then automatically use the Lorby program to create a file called
MakeRwys_Scenery.cfg in your P3D3 or P3D4 folder. This then lists it ALL of the scenery
layers with correct layering. MakeRunways will use that file instead of the original.
...
The special CFG file will be left in the main P3D folder for your own reference to the priority
ordering of your scenery, something difficult to do from all the XML files.

Is the file MakeRwys_Scenery.cfg in your P3D folder after running MakeRwys? If not, then something probably isn't set-up correctly.

Yes, it is all present and correct and I can see all the addon entries in the MakeRwys_Scenery.cfg.

Problem solved. I deleted all the previous CSV files, deleted the PF3_P3D_Runways file and the MakeRwys_Scenery.cfg so that there was no previous data. Reran MakeRWYs, checked the CSV file, all good, rebuilt the PF3 database and now it works. Maybe a file was not being update or overwritten properly.

Now I have my RWY 18-36.

Excellent. Thanks for letting us know
