"8.25" Is the "Z coordinate", the height above ground the jetway attaches. The jetway WILL go into your plane or stop wide of it depending on this number. "-8.75" is the "Y coordinate", the distance left or right of the plane's centerline (negative apparently being left). A bigger number makes the jetway attach further forward on the plane. The three numbers in the center are the main one: "67.5" is the "X coordinate" the distance (in feet, apparently) the main exit is forward of a point (perhaps the rear wheels). I've shot from the hip a bit there, because I'm not at my FSX computer, but those numbers will get you in the ball park. I had sort of thought no one was interested. WOuld you care to share what the add on aircraft was, as well as what the new tinkered coordinates are? The first few cuts at it missed by several feet. I changed a few values (basically, changing the values of the coordinates where FSX "finds" your main exit, and a couple of other factors), then it was just a matter of adjusting the numbers until the jetway came to the plane precisely at the location of the main exit. I had to go into the aircraft.cfg file of the add-on plane that was giving me the problem and tinker with the section marked. If I ever find the post again I'll post a link or quote the post.įorgive me for veering the thread momentarily back on topic, but I did get my problem fixed. You would enter it under the exit section of the aircraft.cfg in an x,y,z format.
MAKING FSX MISSIONS WORK IN FSXSE HOW TO
I remember seeing a post somewhere in the FSX fourms here that told you how to program the jetway.
