Hi David

I had not heard there was a limit on the number of lines in the contries.dat, but that does not mean there is not a limit. If you want to reduce the number of lines you could try:

Kuwait Mil_KAF326=011100000110000111110101,24,Kuwait_Mil.bmp
Kuwait Mil_KAF327-8=01110000011000011111011x,23,Kuwait_Mil.bmp
Kuwait Mil_KAF342-3=01110000011000100001011x,23,Kuwait_Mil.bmp

I ran a test program on them and they seem to work OK.

Hi Guys I am sorry I didn't get back regarding China entries in Countries.dat file. The hex code range for "missing" entries appears to be (lowest blank to highest blank) 780005 - 789204. Must be 50+ like this mostly newish aircraft (especially the new A359s of Cathay Pacific. As an experiement , I have deleted all the Macu and Hong Kong lines from my Countries,dat and just have the one line left (the first one in the list) and will see what that brings,

Countries.Dat and Entries

picking up David's idea of cleaning out lines for specific registrations
e.g. Macao and Aruba ( Kinetics SBS-1 > Basestation Error Discussions)
here then the
Netherlands Antilles_
PJ-TOM
PJ-VIC
PJ-MDI
PJ-WII
they are all reregistered else
so you may delete these lines if you wish.

For those of us who prefer individual corrections to see what is affected i.s.o. taking over complete Countries.dat and not knowing what was changed :
For the plenty of Aruba specific Regs  I queried Airframe.org for their fate and all the following were reregistered otherwise
P4-
AIM
AIR
ARL
BTA
IKF
KCA
LOR
MAK
MLC
MMM
MVP
PAM
PRT
SEN
TAS
TID
TIE
TPS
UAS
WAS
WIN
XAS
YAS
end of list

Anyone have an up to date countries dat file there willing to post here as a zip or copy and pasty file, and not an office file. Some of us don't have office on our computers. The last one posted on Bones site was done in 2015.

Thanks
Donnie

Hi Donnie

I've emailed you the one I'm using, modified over time.  There's no "official" current countries.dat file.

It's just a txt file.

Hello All,

I have just resurrected my SBS1er after a few years break (Baby stopped play). I am also looking for a recent countries.dat file if someone could kindly provide one. Its a shame Gatwick Aviation is no more, the SBS Populate software was always a welcome add-on.

Looking forward to seeing what's in the air from my location near Newbury, used to be lots of Mil.

Thanks in advance,
Jules (G4UET)

Welcome.
