Zac Armstrong 895163 Posted June 7, 2006 at 11:25 PM Posted June 7, 2006 at 11:25 PM Hey guys, I have recently started using ACSIM and I have found out that when I load up the program and select a sector file I get an error message that states "Unable to load elevation.txt" This happens with pretty much every sector file I have. I am thinking that i may need to reinstall the program, but I would need somoene to e-mail it to me to do so zac.armstrong at zhuartcc.com THANKS!

Aaron Barclay 878822 Posted November 30, 2007 at 02:21 AM Posted November 30, 2007 at 02:21 AM can we get some help on this issue? I'm not able to get this to work and because it can't find the elevation.txt file it wont have a/c fly the glide slope to the runway. Any clues?

Matthew Hull 826839 Posted April 21, 2008 at 06:10 AM Posted April 21, 2008 at 06:10 AM I am also unable to cause aircraft to descend on the glideslope and it seems to be [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ociated with the topic of an un-located "elevation.txt" file. What is this? I would really appreciate some light shed on this topic because it causes an un-realistic controlling session with a student.

Benton Wilmes Posted April 21, 2008 at 04:32 PM Posted April 21, 2008 at 04:32 PM The elevation file is a text file that should have been installed when you installed ACSIM. Check your ACSIM folder (the actual program folder) to see if you have it or not. If you don't send me a PM, I can email it to you. The only problems I've ever had with it is aircraft don't disappear like they are supposed to when landing, they just fly level right over the ground until they are deleted. There is an art . . . to flying. The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss. Benton Wilmes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harold Rutila 974112 Posted April 21, 2008 at 08:24 PM Posted April 21, 2008 at 08:24 PM My aircraft fly a glideslope...but not a properly calibrated one. My airport's elevation is 5,400 and they go all the way down to like 1,000 feet. I have never seen any disappear, nor reduce speed automatically.

John Holt 811222 Posted April 6, 2009 at 04:43 PM Posted April 6, 2009 at 04:43 PM I am having the same issue with our new primary airport "VTBS" in Thailand. Could it be that it is a new airport and the data is missing from the elevation file? John Holt จอห์นโฮลท์ Thailand vACC Director Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
