tim737murphy Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I was trying to get GSX to place service vehicles and marshaller at gates but noticed that only 5 parking spots on the opposite end of the airport were listed. Is this do to the elevation issue similar to PAKT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarrad Marshall Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 G'day Tim, Not that I'm aware of. But could you do me a favour and take a screenshot of the parking spots that are included in your GSX menu? I have a feeling it may be caused by a duplicate APX, but a little more information will help point the direction. Cheers, Jarrad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim737murphy Posted June 5, 2014 Author Share Posted June 5, 2014 Sure when I figure out how to take a screen shot, been a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarrad Marshall Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 No worries Tim, if you need a bit of a refresher we've got a handy how-to-guide here: http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/38447-how-to-post-a-screenshot-on-the-orbx-forums/ Cheers, Jarrad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim737murphy Posted June 6, 2014 Author Share Posted June 6, 2014 Here is the parking area 1 of 5 on far end of airport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarrad Marshall Posted June 6, 2014 Share Posted June 6, 2014 G'day Tim,It looks like GSE is referencing KMRZ (Monterey Aero Club) rather than KMRY (Monterey Airport proper) - I'm not a GSE user but if you can make sure it can call the correct airport code, this should allow it to reference the "normal" parking spots.Failing that, you could temporarily disable the KMRX APX by going to your Flight Simulator X/ORBX/FTX_NA/FTX_AA_KMRY/scenery folder and renaming Westsim_KMRX_APX.bgl to Westsim_KMRX_APX.bgl.off , this will 100% ensure that GSE only calls the correct parking positions, but will have the trade-off of disabling the secondary runway.Cheers,Jarrad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim737murphy Posted June 7, 2014 Author Share Posted June 7, 2014 Thanks, I will give it a try. I dont sweat these little things, I love this airport. Sorry for the tiny pictures. They were monsters at first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhett Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 Hi Jarrad, I have the same issue with GSX. Does not recognize any if the gates at KMRY (only the Parking Bays). Will try your recommendation. Regards, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhett Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 By the way, at KMRY as well as Juneau (PAJN), as soon as the plane touches down, ATC requests you to contact ground. This should normally only happen once you leave the runway ... Which makes me think that ATC is not recognizing the runway for some reason (e.g. it thinks you are landing on another runway or something similar). Could the reason be similar to what is happening with GSX? In fact, ATC at PAJN always instructs me to land on the water runway for some reason. Regards. Rhett.

Graham Eccleston Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 You should note we have placed two separate APX files at KMRY to enable the separate AI traffic operations between the smaller Navy Aero Club aircraft and the main Monterey traffic. If you select the correct airport for starting your flight and/or landing, you will see all the appropriate options available for the associated runway.Use KMRY Monterey Peninsula for the main airport and KMRZ Monterey Peninsula Aero Club for the Navy Aero Club.

G'day Rhett, We had this issue with KRDD so I paid careful attention to make sure it wasn't the case with KMRY. It might be worth noting that you will get the notification straight away if you touch down too early on Rwy 28L, as the ATC engine considers the displaced threshold as "off-runway" so will automatically trigger the contact-ground command. If you are still experiencing it, just make sure you don't have any conflicting APX files (My Traffic X, conflicting scenery add-ons etc), this may also be a cause of your issue. Cheers.

matthew47 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 HelloI'm trying to do what Jarrad suggested up above to have GSX work in my KMRY"Failing that, you could temporarily disable the KMRX APX by going to your Flight Simulator X/ORBX/FTX_NA/FTX_AA_KMRY/scenery folder and renaming Westsim_KMRX_APX.bgl to Westsim_KMRX_APX.bgl.off , this will 100% ensure that GSE only calls the correct parking positions, but will have the trade-off of disabling the secondary runway." I can't find KMRX_APX.bgl. I have Westsim _KMRY_APX and Westsim_KMRZ_APX, and that's it. Does he (Jarrad) mean the Westsim_KMRY_APX?

matthew47 Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 I figured it out. I just took out the KMRZ_APX.bgl. GSX now works. Matthew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herky1955 Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 Just to concur on this topic. I have just purchased KMRY and found the same issues with GSX parking spots. Disabling KMRZ_APX.bgl does the trick! All positions are now available to GSX. Best regards David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
