• 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.

Autocompletion?

Messages

Hi,

I am trying with the latest scenproc development 64 bits from April 26 release, however looks like that I do not get the autocompletion to work, no dropdown menu appears. I have tried to read in the manual and check that I have latest NET4 Framework installed ok.

Thanks for your help!
 
Hi,

When you start typing the step name no auto completion appears at all? Usually after 2 letters or so the completion should start. Try to they CREATE and see if the different CREATEAGN steps appear.

Or do you mean the GUID auto completion? That depends on finding the autogen configuration on your system.

Thanks for the tips, I tried with a completely new project and typed like what you suggested - and yes now I can see the autocompletion such as writing IMP.. then I get this dropdown list. However when i.e. copying the script in the 'Examples' from this site into the scenproc program:
http://www.fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=ScenProc

Here I cannot see any dropdown menu list if trying to click on the processing commands, also the GUID list of i.e. vegetation. Are there any way to get them working? FSX Steam Edition is installed on my system and I have also installed P3D 1.4 SDK (to be able to generate desired files for FSX).
 
It sounds like the autogen configuration files are not found. Can you check the event log after starting scenProc, it should mention that some spb or xml files have been read. Or does it show errors there?

When you hover the mouse on the name of a step you should see a tooltip as well. When loading a file, there is no auto completion, since the steps are there already of course. Unless you type an extra line.

I am not sure where I should look after. I attach screenshot of the tool and paste the content of the scenProc.exe.config file too. However tooltip is working as expected.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
<startup>
<supportedRuntime version="v4.0" sku=".NETFramework,Version=v4.0" />
</startup>
<runtime>
<gcConcurrent enabled="false"/>
</runtime>
</configuration>

Hi,

I mean check the log when you just started scenProc, even before you loaded the specific file. It should have some messages about the autogen configuration files being loaded or not.

Hello,

I hope it was this you meant?

Yep, that's what I meant and that looks fine. That means the autogen configuration has been read. So if you hover with your mouse over a GUID you should see a friendly name. And if you start typing that friendly name, the auto completion should work.

Thank you Arno! Now I get it! Such a great tool! :-)
