• 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.

I have Windows 7 64 bit

Tried it with FSXA and acclerator SDK on one PC, FSX prof. and SP2 SDK on another machine... same problem.
default.XML is present.
Can anybody help?

Thanks
Carsten
 
Let me give you a quick update about my problem.

I digged up an old Windows XP installation on a harddisk I once replaced, and there the tool works. It might be a problem with the installation of different versions and service packs, and getting them confused in some way.
De- and reinstall wasn’t successful, although I followed the Wiki help on how to install it right.

Maybe one of you has an idea how to avoid installing everything new on a blank Windows installation.

Carsten
 
Do you have .NET Framework 4 and MSXML 4 installed on your W7 system?

Have never managed to get AutogenEditor.exe working under W7x64.

WindowsXP mode would be my suggestion.
 
I too have the same error msg as Mr. Bascom, but my annotator also (seems to) work OK. I ran into this problem walking through the tutorial on custom buildings in the FSXA SDK.

If hcornea is stumped, it's time for me to book.

My error msg (in English sorry )...

Hi,

The bad image error could mean that there are some 32 bit dll files, while it is tried to run as a 64 bit application.
 
Looks like I am out of luck buying Win7 64 Home premium and expecting Autogen Editor to work.
Maybe there's a workaround but I'm not hopeful.

Is there a switch that would allow me to run temporarily in 32 bit mode without ANOTHER clean install?

I will try this......copy the FSXA SDK to my wife's 32 bit laptop running Vista....
 
Hi,

It also crashes on my machine, so I think ms made some mistake when compiling the tool.

What is this editor supposed to do? To edit the autogen configuration files I use the autogenconfigeditor.exe.
 
I think it simply displays what is in the autogen.bgl files in scenery/global/scenery.

PS..my avatar picture was taken by my webcam 0.43 seconds after a clean install yielded AutogenEditor still crashing.

Click to expand...

You need to load a photo texture bgl to start adding/editing autogen. It works fine on my 64bit W7 system.
 
George,

I think you are talking about annotator, not auyogeneditor that is also in the sdk folder.

John,

Did you try already with the p3d sdk? Might be they fixed the problem.

I can confirm the System.BadImageFormatException crash with my FSX version but the P3D2 version will start and run - I have no clue what to do with it however :) .
 
Hi,

Funny that I never tried these tools before, FSX is so old already :)

It seems autogeneditor.exe is a GUI to edit the default.xml file for the autogen. So you can see which objects are in which class, create new ones, etc.

Just as the autogenconfigeditor.exe is for editing the other autogen configuration files (roofs, vegetation, etc).
