Wilson Creek
« on: January 16, 2013, 12:38:37 AM »
It seems I have a scenery for Wilson Creek.  No textures, just 3 bgl's  One is and AD2 file  "FS11_ADEX_BN.ad2".

I've opened it with Airport Design Editor and it shows as a runway near Ketchikan.  Anyone know where it may have come from or what it is?   I don't see a Wilson Creek in the scenery section and I can't remember where I got it....sheesh.    :P

Hi Rob, a quick search of my system shows that ad2 file is in my . . . \Wilson River Lodge\scenery folder.

Hi Rob,

Those are the modified bgls I made to facilitate an RNAV approach into Wilson Creek. Basically, all it is are a number of waypoints and the addition of an ASOS to the existing field.

Jeff, Rob,
the zip file Brian offers has the .ad2 file and its backup that ADEX9 uses to compile the airport into a .BGL file and that is all you need in the Wilson Creek scenery sub-folder from Brian's zip file ignore the .ad2 files as FSX cannot use them in that form.  This is why we want to check scenery prior to offering it to the members.  Avoids confusion.

Thanks Spud.  And that's why I ask questions before plunking in files!   Thanks Brian, I'll give it a shot now.   8)

btw, is it Wilson's Creek or Wilson's River?

Rob,
the RTMM scenery is named Wilson River (Lodge and Run, two different downloads).  As I said with no installation instructions in the zip not sure what to do with the .bgl or even where it goes.  This was a 'wild card' download not an official RTMM file so your on your own as far as I can tell.

I knew all this when I got the file and threw it into my Wilson River Lodge scenery folder.  It's not an Official RTMM release.  ;)

Hey Gents,

What I did was to make a new folder called 'Altered airports', put a scenery folder in it and then placed the new bgls into that folder. Then I added them in the scenery library within FS and that was it. As I mentioned elsewhere, all it adds are some waypoints to FS.

This way, if there's any conflict with your system (I can't imagine why there would be), you can easily isolate the files and/or remove them.
