I am new to installing GSE airport profiles. How do I install this profile? Is it like liverys where I can just drag and drop into the community folder?

Great update to the default profile. However, can you please replace the VDGS screen with the actual VDGS? I don't like the look of Nool VDGS and I just want to remove them and replace them with GSX VDGS

I wanted to clarify something publicly after discussions privately with the AviationBro.

The original GSX profile included with the scenery placed every aircraft at the furthest back line.

For those unfamiliar with how GSX profiles work, the Python script serves as a method to offset different aircraft from the stopping position set in the profile. For example, you set the general stopping position (in this case, the A320 line) and then in the Python script you set offsets for different aircraft to then place them at their correct line.

I worked with another user to create the profile that is uploaded here. What we did was to overlay a GSX VDGS model on top of the Nool VDGS that is included with the Orbx scenery. As using GSX VDGS with the profile that was included with the scenery placed the GSX VDGS in a random position and didn't hide the Nool VDGS.

The creator of the original GSX profile had not created the Python script to work with anything other than the E and F concourses as there are some gates in the other concourses where the jetway is too long and thus accurate stopping positions cause the affected jetways to not function correctly. And there are some jetways that don't work with any of the stop lines. When I uploaded this profile, I edited the Python script to work at all concourses and modified it to place aircraft like the A321 and B737 at their stopping points using an offset value.

Matteo (creator of the scenery) has confirmed in the Orbx Discord that he will update the scenery to modify the affected jetways (which is a small number of gates) to be shorter so that they function as expected.

My intent was not to suggest that the original GSX profile was made incorrectly because it was not - it just worked within the limitations of the scenery and chose a middle ground - however it did not include GSX VDGS placement, as Nool was included with the scenery.

I hope this clears up any confusion :)

I don't think this is needed. The profile provided works just fine!

Just pushed an update to correct the Southwest gates that were partially overlooked, I did not do a major version upgrade - so if you are having issues make sure you downloaded after this comment was made.

Hello! I was one of the people who worked on the default GSX profile.
The reason we didn't include VDGS was because it should've been included with ORBX's own system at release, never checked up on that but I guess it wasn't. We also encountered an issue with the jetways, where if we put planes like the A321 on the marking for the A321, the jetway would have to incorrectly tilt due to it's sizing (example in attached screenshot). That's why we didn't include a Python to make multiple stop positions across the whole airport, as most spots that only had narrowbodies would have the issue you see in the screenshot, so we just included a single stop position for all those gates. We also had to put some planes not on the correct stop positions at the E concourse because the same issue would happen in the screenshot. If this jetway issue has been fixed, we'll have to revisit. Thanks for your work
