Hi guys, I am unable to rebuild airport database. I'm trying to install FSC 1.8.2 on P3D4. 1) I've downloaded MakeRunways.exe (last version 5.126) from Pete Dawson and copied to P3D4 main folder, under D:/ drive 2) launch FSC admin with administrator rights, makerunwyas.exe rebuild correctly database but FSC captain fail to rebuild airport 3) get: "FSC was unable to build Airport database and wil stop now" where am I wrong? Thanks so much for your support   |

Hi Riccardo,
maybe you did not install LorbySceneryExport? In your P3D main folder, you will find a document "MakeRwys README.pdf" that gives you details about this additional (free) program. MakeRunways needs it to operate properly.
Cheers,
Peter

Hi Peter, thanks for reply.
Yes, I didn't. I didn't suppose that it Lorby Scenery Export was mandatory.
I'll try to installa and report back.

Hello Ricardo, MakeRunways version 5 included a change in the runways.txt we use to gather data about airports. I posted a notice to that effect last December. The version of SceneryScanner included in FSCaptain 1.8.2, cannot handle some of the data changes. But it shouldn't be unable to build the airport database. I've just tried the older SceneryScanner against my current runways.txt file and it built the airports.cfg file... just missing some data. The version of SceneryScanner included in FSCaptain 1.8.3 Alpha 1, can handle the data changes. I use MR 5.1.2.6 with FSC 1.8.3 with no problems. And yes, for P3D4 and P3D5, LorbySceneryExport is required for MakeRunways to see airports installed using the newer add-on methods. If you don't want to test FSCaptain 1.8.3, I can post a link to the new SceneryScanner. Or you could go back to the MakeRunways you were using. However that Rebuild Airports Failed message doesn't tell me enough. Could you post or email us your recent SceneryScanner log files? They should let me see what the real problem might be. Best, |

Hi Travis, thanks for reply. I'd prefer to use stable version 1.8.2, but I don't have older version of makerunways.exe, only the last one. So if you want to post the link to the new SceneryScanner you are wellcome.
I emailed to you my log file.

This was resolved a few weeks ago - Riccardo had a faulty installation and some files were not in their correct place.
Best,
