• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

    Tools DB

    No problem John, thx. Peter, SkyHigh, any input? Anyone around here ever used a SQLite DB?

    Tools DB

    I'm just about ready to give up on that DB all together. I spent yesterday and some time today on it and I'm getting nowhere. I got the DLL, installed SqliteAdmin, all that is cake. I created my DB with one table. Then came the nightmare...installing a data provider and run time tools for...

    No, no, that's great. I'm glad it will provide for both.

    Tools DB

    Thanks for the tip John. I didn't know that was the one to use, I thought they would have a 64-bit version that I couldn't see anywhere.

    Why do some airport BGL not have an Airport Summary section? Is it because they were created with AFCAD?

    Any pointer at all?

    Tools DB

    Time for me to develop and integrate a DB so I did some reading and I'll go for sQLlite. However I just spent some time on the download page and can't figure out what to download to save my life. Is it the "sqlite-amalgamation-3080704.zip" file that I'll have to compile? Don't they have a...

    Never mind, it seems to be working properly. Recently I had many Windows 7 crashes to a point that it wouldn't repair anymore and crazy things starting happening all over the place. I installed Windows 8 and everything is back to normal.

    Patrick, I hate abusing your time but I see you are a C# expert. Could you take a look at this short code at your convenience and see if you can spot why it works well on any form but if used on a form opened with frm.ShowDialog it closes the form when clicking on any button? No rush and if it's...

    I beg developers

    I can think of one reason why such thing happens, MS has become so big that at times the left arm doesn't know what the right arm is doing. In other words miscommunication. There are several examples in Windows in which same things are done or presented differently probably because the two dev...

    Haha, yeah, typical of Internet, some people have no shame putting their name on someone else's code, so pitiful. Thanks for the other links, I'm going to check them out.

    GRRRR :banghead: Why can't I ever see the obvious. I think it's time for stronger glasses again, or maybe brain implant. Glad you don't have that problem. Thank you.

    FS2004 BGL files decomp formulas

    Salut, I hate to bug you again but it seems I spoke too fast. While looking at some of the collected data I noticed multiple copies of the same ICAO. File: Scenery\Ocen\scenery\AP906250.BGL Hawaii, 4 airports I get the following data: Hexa E1 3E 0B 02 A1 3E 0B 02 41 3F 0B 02...

    Patrick, thank you so much for all your help, I wouldn't have figured all that out without you great advises. I had mistaken ICAO section index to offset for index in the list of country, city, etc. All works fine now and I am very pleased with the results. My debug says: BGL files processed...
