This is absolutely fantastic. Already, just glancing over it, I've seen some answers to some problems I've been digging at with no luck. Many, many thanks.

Hi all! I used to do a lot of scenery designing for 1930's airports in FS98 and FS2002. I made state by state scenery for all but six states. I want to get into scenery for FSGW, but I haven't built any scenery for that particular sim. So far, I have downloaded Afcad ver. 2.21 and FSUIP ver. 3.50, because I know I'm going to have to change a lot of modern airports that are in the same locations as the old ones. I was using EOD, FSSC, and Novasim, and Paint Shop Pro and BMP2000 for my textures. FSSC does not have a version for fs9, so I'm going to have to use another, more modern builder. Which ones to you guys recommend? Is there one that codes in the newer scenery language, XLM, or whatever the name is, instead of SCASM? And what about static aircraft? I used MDL2BGL for that; is it's .api files recognized by FSGW? So far, I've built only aircraft .api's that were in FS98, and use the old-style textures. I can't get it to accept FS2002 or 2004 models. Can that be done? I will gladly accept any ideas that you have. Thanks in advance for any advice or help. Del.

FSSC, EOD, Novasim and all of Martin Wright's tools will still work the same way with no problem. PSP likewise. So you already have the tools to get started.
The new tool that is getting good reviews is sbuilder. Its at the usual places. There isn't as much need for static aircraft now because AI can be much more fun and even frame rate friendly. Between the free Custom Classics starting with Golden Hawaii and Golden Wings itself Bill has made a lot of frame rate friendly AI aircraft. Besides AFCAD2 you need TTools to make your traffic files. I'll e-mail you more on that in a couple days.
