Hi,
Very nice update. Is there a way for ATC to change rwy 9 to rwy 10 ?

It should say 10/28. Make sure the Update installed correctly, file AFX_TNCM.bgl in particular, look for "date-modified".

Yes, I found a duplicate Afcad, Thank you

Hi Martin,

I cannot install the 1.2 Update as the installer says there is no previous version install and I should use the original installer. I did install it from scratch in FSX with the very first install exe from 2007.

Any idea?

If you mean the file named "FlyTampa_Maarten_FSX_PRE.exe", you may have to install final release version first. Download is on second post of the following thread:

Martin, thanks for this update! Great scenery, one of the best. One problem, I lost all my GPS approaches to TNCM. They used to load from the default GPS and now they are gone. Is it something in the afcad file that disabled the approaches?

Hi Guys,

Will this fix the ATC issue I am having with the FSX version. St Mateen has become an uncontrolled airport in FSX and it's kind of a busy place.

Thanks,
LouP

Follow-up: I tested this out and the ATC is still missing.

Also I don't see runway lights at night. Taxiway lights yes, but no flash runway lights on the boundaries of the runway or the middle like other runways. Also at SABA there is no ATC at all, it's as if the sim doesn't know the airport exists.

Same here.

@ Martin

does this mean AES will not not work with this update?

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has found a fix for the "no runway lights" at night as posted above.

Thanks

Can you post a screenshot of the runway at night please. I need to see if the lights aren't there at all or just very dim.

Hi Martin,

Thanks for the fast reply. They are on, just very very dim. I spent a couple of hours searching the forums last night and came across a bgl file you supplied to another member that had a like issue. Its titled "maarten_ rwy.bgl" I was going to try that but havent had the chance yet. I am at work tonight, but I will get that screenshot for you when I get home in the AM and post it here.

Thanks Again

Hi Martin,

Disregard my last post. I found a screenshot you posted here, viewtopic.php?f=14&t=4355
of how the runway lights are supposed to look. Mine pretty much matches the shot you posted. I am new to FSX and your scenery is my first dip in the pool so to speak with any aftermarket products. I am use to seeing runways and airports lit up like a Christmas tree in FSX . When I could barely make out the runway in St. Maarten, I thought something was wrong. I apologize for the inconvenience. I do have a few other issues I would like to ask about, but I will try to find the appropriate thread to post my questions. Thanks for your time
