• 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.

HI Arno
I still having trouble with my Pier. I made it in gmax and exported it . opened up the xml file and edited it with the long and lat that I need but it will not save. I dont now what I am doing wrong. I have attached the xml file and the gmax file also and the mdl file so you can look at it if you get the time.

thanks

Hi Woody,

What are you using to edit the XML file?

I'm at work, so I can't look at your files.

Hi Clmax
Im using the Altova XMLSPY to edit a xml file. I have always used it before but I have updated it a couple of weeks ago. It will still valiate the xml file that I did before so I dont think that the program is the trouble. This is just simple pier that i am trying to make for some scenery that i am making. If I can get it to work i may put it in a rwy_12 file and upload it so other people can use it . but I first have to get it working here. I haven't tried to use the MDL file that may work.

Have you tried to edit the xml manually with "notepad"?

I alway do this and I haven't had problems with it up to now.
 
RE: Pier

Hi Woody,
Exported, and compiled to BGL, your pier, and placed it at RAF St Athan and it shows up no problem.
Just to clarify, do you select all the objects, and use "export selected" to compile the MDL file.

Hope this was helpful.
