You have to make them in gmax 2004 sdk and harden the object ,there are limits to sloping the runway and the way the model is made in FS9 that can lend to crashes ,there is a good payware addon out there for the area which has the sloping runway you are looking for already made ,google search will bring up a heap of hits if you put fs9 or 2004 lukla..

Yeh aerosoft's lukla but i cannot get that due to parental restrictions lol.
I guess it looks quite complicated as i am not very good with gmax, i think i'll forget about it and stick with australia for the time.
But i saw somewhere that you can make sloped runways by just making a few runways on top of eachother with different elevation and then just putting a image on the top.
if so that sounds easy enough.

The only way i got it working was to make it gmax ,this was the full runway ,i managed in fs9 nearly a 45 deg sloping harden ,after that it doesn't work and you would fall through it ,plus what a angle to land on anyway ,
after my findings in fS9 i moved on to trying them in FSX like this tread i made here with a fun tester ..
