• 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.

ADE doesn't compile separate OBJ file

Hi,

I have followed all the steps in the manual and also consulted the FAQ (=set the tick mark next to compile separate files in Settings) but for some reason there is no separate OBJ file created. I know that I am looking at the right folder because the bgl file that is created had the prefix an suffix that I set in settings, it's in the folder that I indicated in settings, and from the time it's been created I know that it's not an old file.

It's just that I can't seem to find the second file with the "OBJ" in the file name.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Chris

The obvious question is do you actually have any scenery objects in your project? If so then please attach your project file to a post here so that we can check it
 
Ah, excellent question ;-)

I want to change the AFCAD that came with Drzwiecki Design UUEE Moscow Sheremetyevo. No idea if that has any scenery objects that be honest. All I want to do is change airline assignments and size of some gates, but do so using another software (AFX). In order not to mess up underlying exclusion files and suddenly have buildings disappear or default scenery peek through I wanted to separate the bgl in two separate files and then only work on one of them, leaving the OBJ file alone.

If there are no buildings or other scenery elements in the original bgl file then ADE will not create one. However it may remove any existing matching -OBJ file if there was one. However if the original was created using AFX then chances of there being a separate OBJ file is nil I think
 
AFCAD files do not contain any scenery objects, so no OBJ file will be created.
