The updated KLAS that is part of 11.05 is included as part of the automatic update. It is not available on the Gateway because of its custom landmark objects.
The only pack that is available is the WEDbot pack, which is just the default scenery with no improvements. Any time you see the artist "WEDbot" it will most likely just be an empty airport with just runways and basic (probably incorrect) taxiways.
Thanks for the clarification. The package still has old runways identifiers though. And this causes errers with updated navdata. Is the runways correction in the todo list or should we advise through sending any report? If so in which way if this package is blocked? Thanks.
Product= XPlane
Version= 11.05
OS= Windows
Summary= False Field Elevation for KLAS / Las Vegas Mc Carran Intl
Description= The new default KLAS-Scenery as of XP 11.05 shows a false field elevation. It should be 1281ft instead of 1241ft.
The false field elevation also causes parts of the new Las Vegas Blvd scenery to hover (check the " Welcome to Fabulous Las Vegas" sign). After manually fixing this, all strip scenery fits correctly on ground (when flattening scenery).
Steps= Check this line of the respective apt.dat:
Issue confirmed and fixed. I will provide Ben/Tyler with a revised KLAS in a few days as there are a couple of other issues also currently in progress for this airport.
you may also want to check the taxiways leading off of the runways while you are at it. I used KLAS a few weeks ago, and many taxiway exits were blocked by runway edge lights (see this post by Michael to see why that happens
I am getting this message when I try to load a route from KLAS : "An unexpected exception resulted from GPS command:1314" and then the program crashes. Please help!!
Sounds like you manually downloaded KLAS from the Gateway. Please delete KLAS_Scenery_Pack from Custom Scenery. The correct version of KLAS should already be present in that folder (called 'KLAS Las Vegas Mc Carran').
When trying to load KLAS departure or arrival procedures into the FMC or GPS - receive the following error - Procedure could not be loaded, missing waypoint RW25L. Using X Plane 11 stock data base. I think the correct runway number is 26 not 25.

KLAS has outdated Arrival/Departure procedures which do not agree with airport data. For instance, Rwy 08/26 L/R has procedures for the old 07/25 L/R. In other words KLAS dat fie in CIFP folder is not updated
Airport ramp starts only show one code per gate. This airport has no gates that support AAL aircraft, for example, so World Traffic AAL flights disappear after landing at the airport. Gates should have more than one airline assigned where appropriate. A quick check of the McCarran departures page shows that AAL uses Gates D7,8,10,11. I would upload a version of the airport with the airline codes corrected, however new submissions aren't being accepted for this airport.
Ok, I wanted to change it but : "Note: This airport is under development by Laminar Research. Submissions to the Gateway are therefore currently excluded from X‑Plane releases. No submissions for this airport will be approved without prior approval from the moderator." Hopefully Laminar Research will change the name for us.

I am user X-PLANE 10
I still use X-PLANE 10 and I'm looking for the compatible scenery KLAS.
On the forums.x-plane.org website there is one, but the scenery is not good...
Best regards, Douglas
The downloaded zip is empty.
I tried other airports, same result.

Ok understood. Upon selecting KLAS on the stock XP11 FMC a report has been generated and sent to the Gateway.
Still has the wrong runway identifiers in XP11.10.

Ever since the last two or three updates it came up with this error code. It happens also with de default KLAS!!!

Refers to a third-party product.

The runway number 8/26 are correct as of late 2017, no more 7/25. See http://news3lv.com/news/local/thats-science-magnetic-drift-changes-runway-landing-number-at-mccarran-airport

Updated AIRAC cycles are available from Navigraph and Aerosoft.
Airport ramp starts only show one code per gate. This airport has no gates that support AAL aircraft, for example, so World Traffic AAL flights disappear after landing at the airport. Gates should have more than one airline assigned where appropriate. A quick check of the McCarran departures page shows that AAL uses Gates D7,8,10,11. I would upload a version of the airport with the airline codes corrected, however new submissions aren't being accepted for this airport.
John Rogers July 14, 2019 1:57 PM
I uploaded a version with more airline gate assignments. It has been accepted and is currently the recommended version. This bug can be closed.
Jan Vogel February 28, 2021 9:11 AM
Airport has been updated recently, this report can be closed.
Will the name be changed to Harry Reid Intl per FAA? Should this airport have a rotating beacon?
The airport has been officially renamed Harry Reid Intl, but still appears as McCarran on the gateway.
XPJavelin November 6, 2022 4:01 PM
Ok, I wanted to change it but : "Note: This airport is under development by Laminar Research. Submissions to the Gateway are therefore currently excluded from X‑Plane releases.

Upcoming multiphase construction project planned for KLAS: https://faasafety.gov/SPANS/noticeView.aspx?nid=12596
Don't forget the official name change to Harry Reid Intl :)
Scenery doesnt fully load an an error message pops up
Jan Vogel April 6, 2023 5:38 AM
Probably someone trying to run XP12 Scenery Gateway scenery on XP11
Is it me, or are there no ramp lighting at all terminals. All terminals are dark at night.
As stated in a previous report, there is virtually no lighting around the ramp areas, making this airport very difficult to maneuver at night.
Mark Goodman May 11, 2024 12:52 PM
Also no lighting on the west side of the. Airport.
The curved portions of the taxi lines are made from nodes instead of Bézier curves.
Wiil this airport ever get terminal lighting. Those old uplights aren't doing it any justice. :)
Hi Gateway.x-plane, Good Day

Ok Sean
Can close this case.
Thanks, Douglas
Several runway configurations do not match FAA eNASR config info.
Ref: X-Plane 12 v12.1.4 beta 1
Terminals D and E very dark due to missing terminal lighting. Terminals A, B, and C use uplights, which looks wierd.
