• 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.

GUID not valid

Arno,

I do use XMLEditPro to edit my xml files. However, if I save any file, Library Creator XML gives me an error on invalid GUID. The fact is that the Editor stores the ModelData with the "sourceFile" first, followed by the "name" and then the "fileOffset".

Library Creator now attempts to load the "sourceFile" data as GUID.

Regards
Johan van Wyk

Hi Johan,

Yes, that is correct. At the moment Library Creator XML assumes a fixed order of the attributes. I think it is a good idea to change this so that the attributes are searched by name. But this is not the kind of fix that I can produce very fast, so there is no quick fix for this.

But why does the text editor you use change the order of the attributes? Would it not be possible to keep the origional order.

Arno,

Thanks for the reply, not a big issue. I just like the way XMLEditPro display the file.

Hi Johan,

Thanks for reporting anyway. It was just in time for me to fix this same problem in the new version of ObPlacer XML I am currently working on :). When I update Library Creator XML I will fix the problem there as well.
