• 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.

Lately I used my own Library Creator XML tool a bit and I found a very small bugs. One is for example that the tool will crash if you compile a BGL file that FsX still has opened (and thus locked). Also I found some minor things that are not as intended :).

I will try to fix this things and will then release a more stable version. If anyone has found similar problems, please let me know so that I can have a look at them.
 
FSX Style GUID Handling in RWY12 XML Creation

Arno,

I have a library created from two GMAX FSX models. One model has imbedded zeros in the GUID according to GMAX; the other model does not.

The Library Creator XML tree display does not show the zeros in the GUID which contains them but correctly displays the GUID of the other model.

The RWY12 XML created by Library Creator shows GUID="" for the model containing zeros in the GUID. It shows an old style GUID for the model without zeros...I have no idea if the conversion is accurate or if such a conversion was intentional on your part.

Regards,
 
Hello Frank,

I also noticed some trouble with FsX models and blank GUIDs after exporting to SBuilder or API macro. I think the Rwy12 problem you have is the same. I will check this as well, when I work on the update.

About the conversion to old style GUID, yes that is intended. Tools like Rwy12 can't work with the new format. But in the end the result is the same (binary wise).
 
I have released version 2.0.2 in which these problems should be solved. For more information check this thread.
