• 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.

    msfsbglxml - convert MSFS (2020) BGL files to XML

    Hi rhumbaflappy, thanks for the feedback. Fixed in next build. Fixed in next build. Any idea how/where these are derived? Are they relative to the Material GUID, or is there something I'm missing? These discrepancies are in practice not noticeable in MSFS and are likely due to different...

    msfsbglxml - convert MSFS (2020) BGL files to XML

    Hi everyone: The first post of this thread now contains msfsbglxml v1.1, which includes updates required in order to support format changes made in SU6. This new version requires a .NET 6.0 runtime, the link to which is also provided. Enjoy!

    MSFS20 SU6 Bgl Format Changes

    I've now successfully got the new format procedures decoding in msfsbglxml, albeit with a few new values to figure out. I'll also be looking at other changes and getting msfsbglxml and bgllib updated. As part of this work I'll get to updating the Wiki with the updated information.

    msfsbglxml - convert MSFS (2020) BGL files to XML

    Updated build to fix license acknowledgement issues. It seems that BGLs shipped with new MSFS still mostly behave as expected, with one exception (Barton). Looking into this but it rates as a non-critical issue right now.

    msfsbglxml - convert MSFS (2020) BGL files to XML

    1.13.16 (the UK update) looks like it introduces a number of new BGL elements, so this might break BglLib / msfsbglxml. Currently investigating, but it seems that most of the legacy BGL which are shipped do not have these new elements and so aren't causing any trouble at this point. There is...

    msfsbglxml - convert MSFS (2020) BGL files to XML

    I would suggest that you look at the help, as the parameter format is different to what you are assuming. The correct format would be: msfsbglxml --bgl sest.bgl --xml sest.xml

    msfsbglxml - convert MSFS (2020) BGL files to XML

    UPDATE -- Jan 30 2022: msfsbglxml v1.1 is also now attached below, which includes updates to support changes made in SU6 to certain key attributes. Please note that this release requires the .Net 6.0 Runtime in order to run. I have left the 1.0 release here for reference as well... Hi all...

    MSFS20 What is the difference between TIN, OSM and MS buildings?

    TIN = buildings generated via telegrammetry OSM = buildings generated from base OpenStreetMap data MS = buildings generated via Microsoft Bing or direct FS placement

    You need an ExclusionRectangle with excludeCarParking set.

    MSFS20 Fixing MSFS LDA information in APX data files

    I wonder if it might be related to the fact that OEV & OEJ are presumably referred to within the <Approach> records which state the LDA?

    MSFS20 Fixing MSFS LDA information in APX data files

    Updating files in place is absolutely dangerous, really really don't do that. Also whenever there's an update your changes will be wiped out with alacrity by MSFS. The script will also only work with MS Store downloaded versions of MSFS right now. I'm actually surprised that just blanking the...

    Is FSDeveloper working fine for you all?

    Better than before - previously I'd see a few times when it'd be slow or unavailable - not seen that since the move!
