If they are in the scenery folder, the only thing that needs to be checked off is "Addon Scenery."

Cool

I put the files in both scenery and addon scenery and still not working.

bad news. I just downloaded / installed the SIMV Neighborhood airport. Well, SMVN puts me dead in the middle of AFRICA! and the SMVA puts me in the Tropical Atlantic off the south-western coast of AFRICA!

any idea of what is going wrong? I installed per the README but I am no where near Arizona or New Mexico.

This will not work in FS9, sorry. Once ADE has more FS9 capabilities, I will make an FS9 version.

Some other issues:

-You must have these hangars installed:

-There is a sign problem:

I know, but I see three. In Arizona, There is one hanger which has your sign and then right behind it (just a few feet) there is another sign that has the the correct name. Wink

Here's a pic in Airport Design editor:

You can see your sign right in front of the other guy's.

EDIT: Similar problem in Nevada, except this time your sign is behind the other one.

I have fixed it, but I haven't sent it out. I would like to hear from more people to see if there are any other little mistakes befre I send out a fix. Hint, hint to those that signed up. Wink

-The ADE file is not needed, but it is there just 'cause.

-Airport Names:

I noticed that a new name might be needed for the Arizona airport with SimV City for the Nevada location.

How about Sanctuary ? Undecided

Just a thought.

They are not named SimV City, they are in SimV City. The Arizona Airport is Simviation Neighborhood Arizona (SMVA) and the Nevada airport is Simviation Neighborhood Nevada (SMVN).

-How to open the hangars:

Tune Nav2 to 115.5 and activate it. Unfortunately they all open at once. Get over it, the other ones did not open/close at all. Cheesy

If you are in a plane without a Nav2, you cannot open the hangars. They are not crash sensitive though, so you can taxi right through the door. Wink

-There is a public version here:

I think that's it for now.

Cool

I am adding a VOR/DME to the airports, but would you also prefer an ILS on one runway at each airport?

Cool

Misunderstood. Embarrassed
