• 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.

I have a problem with Excbuilder

I had to do a reformat of my HD, and reinstalled FS2004. I downloaded the BGLComp program and the Excbuilder, and tried to recompile my exclude files for some of the default scenery of downtown Atlanta. Nothing is happening. What's going on here? I pointed Excbuilder to the location of BGLcomp, but there is nothing going on.
 
I did a reinstall recently but when I tried to use Bglcomp on some XML files, nothing happened. I eventually realized I needed to install Msxml4.msi before Bglcomp would work. This adds msxml4.dll, msxml4a.dll and msxml4r.dll to the same directory that Bglcomp is in. I have no idea whether this is related to your problem, but it might be.
 
Try to compile from a DOS prompt, then you can see the errors that occur. It could very well be that MSXML is missing, running the MSI file as indicated before should solve that. As the needed files are added to your windows system folder then.
 
I am having this same problem. The create XML and BGL in the GUI dosn't work, it will creat the XML but not the BGL. So I tried to drag the XML over top of the bglcomp.exe with no success, I can drag a XML created by RWY12 over the bglcomp.exe and it works (so I know that I have everything that is needed installed) but if I drag the XML created by exclude builder it gives me a quick DOS screen and then nothing. I have attached the xml from exclude builder I can't see anything wrong with it. Can you guys take a look.

PHP: 
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<FSData
   version = "9.0"
   xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
   xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="bglcomp.xsd" >
   <ExclusionRectangle
        latitudeMinimum = "63.328185374415"
        latitudeMaximum = "63.3303362662919"
        longitudeMinimum = "-149.129155783777"
        longitudeMaximum = "-149.132551814165"
       excludeAllObjects = "TRUE" />
</FSData>
 
longitudeMinimum = "-149.129155783777"
longitudeMaximum = "-149.132551814165"

should be:

longitudeMinimum = "-149.132551814165"
longitudeMaximum = "-149.129155783777"
