• 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 there, i'm new to the forum and i would first congratulate and thank all of you for you work, this is a great community that i was following since quite time, and now i decided to join it in an active manner :)

I'm trying to figure out how to place sim objects with scenProc, for example in my OSM shp files i have points showing placements of various radio antennas, marked with "ANTENNA" type.
I've found a nice 3d antenna in SBuilderX313 Object Library Manager that's named gen_tv01 {8166fd03-4111-480c-92d1-4c7fb329264c} in the FSX_Hazards category, and would like to place it according to the shp points with scenProc, here's my config:

IMPORTOGR|c:\sim\osm\points.shp|12.6123046875;12.919921875;41.7713116797642;41.9349765005467|*|NOREPROJ

SPLITGRID|AGN

CREATEXMLLIBOBJ|FTYPE=POINT;FROMFILE=points.shp;type=antenna|{8166fd03-4111-480c-92d1-4c7fb329264c}|90|0|35;35

EXPORTAGN|FSX|C:\SIM

after compiling the report says that 2 XML objects was created but i can't see the object in FSX

I've found that this object don't show up in the scenproc auto complete list, neither in annotator objects, and if i try to create a listed object, let's say a religious building large {66d81030-42ef-59fe-977d-da9e6c30c270} then it will show correctly in FSX.

So my final question is: is it possible to place objects that are not in the "autogen" category? if yes how can i do it? Thank you so much, and keep up the good work!
 
Hi,

Yes, you can place any library objects. The auto completion only works for autogen library objects, not for the ones that you place with XML code.

Could it be your library that contains the object is not active in fsx?
