• 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.

Feature Request: FSX Output File Name

Hi all,
Thanks again for this great utility. I've recently started using it in lue of other utilities to convert my WoAI and MRAI compiled flightplans to FSX format. I do however have a feature-request with regard to my converted WoAI bgl's. I keep the original FS9-format bgl's in a archive directory outside of the FSX path. I then use AIFP to convert those bgl's back into the FSX path, in the FSX format.

What I have found is, as long as "FSX" is added to the the AIFP output, the WoAI installer and internal database cannot properly find the converted file during routine updates and/or deletions.

In a future update, would it be possible to add a checkbox or something to the FS9-FSX conversion GUI (or preferences) that would allow us not to modify the output filename during conversion? That would be a big help.

Thanks again for a great application.

Simple and reasonable. I should have it in the next release - probably late this week.
