• 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.

How to use the bgl browser

Dear Arno,

nice tool your mdl tweaker. But i have a question about it.
I want to use the bgl browser so i can see which objects are in the bgl file.

I choose the bgl file. I see there are 20 objects in it. Nothing more. I thougt i could see these objects??

My problem is that i haven´t found yet a suitable tool for me :( with which i can see what is in that bgl.

I have Instant Scenery (absolut beginner sorry) for placing objects from a addon library because thats at the moment the only program i´m able working with.

I tried other but they don´t have a preview of the object in the bgl file.


Ahhh i hate scenery design much harder to understand as i thougt.
 
Hi,

If you double click on the objects in the list of the BGL browser, they should load in MDL Tweaker so that you can view them in the preview window. But this part of the program is not really fail-safe, so it might crash now and then :).
 
Nope won´t work with any blg file.:(

Hm do you have another suggestion with wich programm i can use the objects inside a bgl file so i can place them?
I know LOM can read it but without an image so i don´t know what object it may be.
 
Hi,

Just tried it myself and it seems that function is indeed broken in the last version of MDL Tweaker.

I am using the mission Object Placement tool myself if I want to browse through the available objects. Not really a great GUI, but it works.
 
Thanks.

I don´t know this tool you mentioned. But i think it is only for FSX and i´m still using FS9.

But when it will work with FS9 where can i get it? Never seen it before.

Hi,

Yes, the mission Object Placement tool is indeed only for FsX. I forgot to ask which version you are using :).
