LGRP

[larsjolls]

I have bought LGRP for P3DV4+ but the stands are not correct according to new gates etc, when using GSX.
Does anyone have the new AFCAD file for this ?

Can you please specify what problem you have with GSX at the gates?
If you don't like the default GSX vehicle positions at the parking positions, you can edit each parking in the GSX menu.

We had yet no trouble using GSX at LGRP.

The problem is that e.g. stairs, pushback truck etc are at the old gate numbers. So if you park at new gate 7, all the equipment is placed at the old gate, in the other end of the airport.
I know I can change by moving round in GSX, but in all other airport it is placed correctly from start, e.g. at LCLK.
I have been told it depends of the AFCAD file, and my AFCAD file seems to be from an old LGRP scenery, which is disabled.

That is correct. Sometimes an old - or other - AFD file conflicts with a scenery. I assume you used a previous scenery for LGRP before? Please make sure you remove all traces of that old scenery. Searching your hard disk, you should only find the files "AFX_LGRP_ALT.bgl" (in our FSDG/scenery/world/scenery folder) and "AFX_LGRP.bgl" (in our FSDG-Rhodes/FSDG-Rhodes/scenery folder). These are files from our FSDG-Rhodes scenery. Also please make sure that no other (potentially conflicting) addons are listed above FSDG-Rhodes in the scenery library.

As you can see from attached pic I have the AFCAD in right place.
I have changed path in file to be correct (Screenshoot is the wrong/old path)

Stairs are still plaved in the other end of the airport

GSX still uses the other AFD file. I'm not that familiar with GSX, but there should be a feature that forces GSX to rescan the available AFD files.

This one AFX_LGRP.bgl" (in our FSDG-Rhodes/FSDG-Rhodes/scenery folder) I don´t have. I have re-installed it a couple of times, and updated with the new file today from Simmarket.

Could you provide me with this file ?

The posts above were written before we released the new versions. The file is now called 'AFD_LGRP_v5.bgl'.

Great - but where should it be located ? It is not in C:\Users\larsj\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons\FSDG-Rhodes\FSDG-Rhodes\scenery

[horst18519]

It is in the location you installed the scenery in. You can choose a custom location in the installer.
If you don't remember, you can open the add-on.xml file in C:\Users\MYUSERNAME\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons\FSDG-Rhodes and find the location of the scenery folder.

But normally, you shouldn't bother about that file or any other scenery files, as long as the scenery works as expected. Do you experience any issues with the scenery?

EDIT: Your profile says you use P3Dv3. The problem discussed in this thread was about the P3Dv4 / P3Dv5 version.
