Missing ILS frequencies

[ROBBAN]

Hello!

I purchased drzewiecki polish airports vol2 for x-plane 11 and there are missing ILS frequencies in some airports.In EPSC there is only LOC on rwy 31 and no glideslope. EPLL is empty without any ILS but it should be ILS on rwy 25.

I would like to ask you if this is possible to add missing ILS in x-plane 11 and how to do this?

LR removed the X-Plane map edit function in X-Plane 11, they want you to report any problems with XP navaids (example missing/incorrect ILS), to the X-Plane Gateway. It is technically possible to 'hand edit' XP navdata, but to do so is unsupported by LR.

Hand-placed localizers - how we ensure it works with global scenery

Previously, many users of X-Plane 10 using data products from third-parties have complained of discrepancies between ILS components from this data and airports in X-Plane, leading to ILS signals guiding the airplane besides the runway.

In X-Plane 11, the next layer of navdata that is layered above global and FAACIFP data, is the curated localizer, glideslope and marker data from the scenery gateway.

This file ensures hand-curated localizers collected in the gateway database are working perfectly with the gateway airports.

The file

• earth_nav.dat

is located in $X-Plane/Custom Scenery/Global Airports/Earth nav data/

and is updated with the gateway airports as necessary via the X-Plane updater. It ensures that hand-corrected localizers match our airports perfectly.

If you encounter a mismatch in runway placement between custom scenery and gateway airports, leading to localizer offsets when using custom scenery, always refer to government data to confirm runway placements. Scenery authors, please don't try to work around incorrect placements in the X-Plane default scenery or incorporate eventual errors into your own custom scenery. If you encounter airport or runway placements that are not accurate according to government data, always report this as a bug to the scenery gateway, and include a government source with correct data. The goal is to get the X-Plane world as accurate as possible, instead of carrying scenery errors forever.

User data - per-user overrides

The last layer is the user-defined layer.

These files are where all edits made in X-Plane's map ui are saved. Whenever a fix or navaid is altered through the X-Plane map, its modified entry is saved in the user_* file, which overrides previously loaded information.

The files

• user_nav.dat
• user_fix.dat

are located in $X-Plane/Custom Data/

and are non-existent in a default installation of X-Plane and not touched by the updater.

The user_*.dat files must be created by the user. They are the highest layer and ensure user modifications are preserved even with updates from Aerosoft or Navigraph.

ONLY in these user_fix.dat/user_nav.dat can you add or edit the X-Plane world data without being at risk of breaking data integrity. So if you want to add custom fixes or navaids to X-Plane, this is the only safe place to do it.

Note that this does not work for deleting objects that were loaded in a lower layer. You can no longer delete a fix from the UI in a persistent way. If we’d allow for selective deletion of fixes or navaids, airways that might be referencing them would break.
