problem with gate

[MarcXan]

1. When I get to the gate and do CTRL+J the gateway doesn't come.

2. When I'm not at a gate with a gateway, how do I call the bus to come get the passengers

Thanks

You need to enable 'Advanced animations' under settings I think.

You might need to turn up the traffic as well...

And I've never heard about busses with passengers in FSX.

Thanks, I'm gonna try that

There are some setings that need to be added to the aircraft config to tell the gateway where to extend too, if they are not there the gate wont work. I believe most odf the new FSX planes amy have that but the FS9 imports wont. tHere is a file on PAI i beleieve that will give some starting points for your plane if needed.

Busses to get the passengers  :-?

[MarcXan]

the advanced animations thing worked, thanks everyone.

Actually the gate only worked once :-?, it's weird so if anyone has a better idea? But I'm not sure that I'm parking properly, does that change anything?

Thanks

Ive had this problem,

Try and add this over the exits in you aircraft.cfg
Hopefully it will help

[exits]
number_of_exits = 2
exit.0 = 0.4,  36.6, -5.0,  3.0, 0   //openclose rate percent per second, longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet), type (0=Main 1=Cargo 2=Emergency)
exit.1 = 0.4, -38.5,  4.5, -3.0, 1   //openclose rate percent per second, longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet), type (0=Main 1=Cargo 2=Emergency)
exit.2 = 0.4,  33.5,  3.5, -4.0, 2   //openclose rate percent per second, longitudinal, lateral, vertical positions from datum (feet), type (0=Main 1=Cargo 2=Emergency)


AND MAKE SURE,
Try holding Ctrl+J and just hold it and see if it works.

It's still not working!!!!

Well hopefully your fully lined up on the line and when you first start hold down CTRL+J for a minute then you should see it start to move. Thats how I have to get my jetways to work and also when you put that exit's thing I gave you to put into your aircraft.cfg make sure that you delete the old exits and copy the one I gave you and paste it where the old one was.

Otherwise if you do all that and it STILL doesent work...  :( theres a problem I dont know how to fix

Also make sure you are lined up on the lines with the front wheel on the cross, engines off, and parking brake on.

Are you using a default plane or an add on

[MarcXan]

it bugs with defaults and add-ons

it bugs with defaults and add-ons

Message me (hopefully you know how to if not on the bottom the PM button for personal message) the aircraft.cfg (copy and paste it on the message) from the aircraft that you use most.

Ill look into it and see what I can help you with.
