    EDDS runway slope fix - MSFS2020 - Image 1

    Description

    This add-on fixes the wrong runway slope of the default Stuttgart airport EDDS, which was introduced with WU6.

    If the fix doesn't seem to work, please check also the priority of your scenery packages with the Package Reorder Tool in the General Options - Experimental menu. "sierrabravo-edds-runwy-fix" must have a higher priority (located below) than "microsoft-airport-edds-stuttgart", otherwise the original Microsoft EDDS is used. If necessary, you can rearrange the order by using the arrow keys next to the priority numbers.

    Do we still need it for MSFS 2024?

    Excellent job! This fixed the ILS issue at runway 25. keep up the great work!

    over 1 year ago

    Yes. The ILS approach works now with this fix, but I have also a bad satellite image of the airport in the world map...

    Now I have seen, without this mod and with an empty community folder, I still have this bad airport on my world map. Is it "censored", because military usage in real life 🤔🤷🏽‍♂️ On Bing maps it is also pixelated 😬

    You need to install City Update 6 Southwestern Germany to fix the bad satellite imagery :)

    The City Update Southwest is installed...

    I have issues with the World Map not showing satellite imagery when seeing EDDS and choosing gate or runway. Running latest MSFS and WU, and latest 1.3 of this add-on.
    Removing it doesn't seem to clear the issue, so it seems there is something going on with Asobos EDDS and the World Map even with no add-ons to EDDS. _Sometimes_ it can look right if turning Bing imagery off and back on. But then after restart of MSFS, even with this add-on disabled/not installed, it then suddenly fails and shows only rough land around and over EDDS instead of right satellite imagery. Have tried clearing/disabling cache, deleting content.xml etc. No luck. Any tips?

    Wird auch der ILS Bug gefixt?

    about 2 years ago

    ILS Bug? Die ursprünglich falsche Position des Localizer (25?) wurde vor über einem Jahr in der Standardszenerie gefixt (s. mein Update auf Version 1.1). Der Glideslope war korrekt, nur stimmt halt die Bodenhöhe der Schwelle 25 nicht. Genau dafür ist der Fix.
    Da ich Navigraph verwende, würde ich einen neuen Bug in den MSFS Navi Daten nicht bemerken. Ist das ILS wieder falsch und falls ja, was genau?

    Als ich das letzte mal geflogen bin, war das ILS für die 25 fiels zu tief eingestellt und ich wäre, hätte ich nicht eingegriffen vor der Runway im Boden gelandet. Ich müsste es definitiv noch einmal probieren :D

    about 2 years ago

    Genau dafür ist der Fix. Das ILS ist korrekt, nur der Boden auf Höhe der Schwelle 25 ist im MSFS zu hoch. Stuttgart hat in echt eine leicht geneigte Bahn, die an der Schwelle 25 etwas tiefer ist als an der 07. Das hat Asobo bis heute nicht richtig abgebildet. Die Bahn ist im MSFS eben und die 25 auf der selben Höhe wie die 07, also zu hoch. Deshalb stürzt du dich davor in die Botanik, wenn du dem GS folgst. Mein Fix passt die Bodenhöhe der Realität und dem ILS an.

    Hallo, bei mir bringt der fix nichts, auch in der content.xml hat der MSFS nichts erstellt, bin etwas ratlos

    Funktioniert das auch mit dem EDDS von RDPresets?

    Hi There, Unfortunately the runway fix does not fix the elevation problem it causes. When the runway fix is in place, the jetways look like this. Picture Link:

    Is the same with the Asobo default scenery. What am I doing wrong? why does no one else has this problem???

    almost 4 years ago

    Moin. I went a bit deeper in the matter and the result i get, when using your fix is the following:

    It doesn't matter, if i am Using the default EDDS or the Just Sim EDDS, the result is the same. The Runway slope now looks just fine now. BUT the jetway bridges and the Main terminal building are sunk in the ground approx 2-3 meters. Is there any advice someone can give me?? i tried to change the content.xml a few times now but no solution. doesn't has anybody the same issues with the terminal buildings and jetways? For the record, i have the World update Germany installed, but even deleting it does not fix the matter^^. Regards steve
