• 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.

Library Creator to Rwy12 Object Placer

Please, excuse my poor English.
I tried for the first time to do a new building (an air terminal) for FSX. I entirely followed the tutorial "Creating and Placing sketchup Buildings into FS"
I was succesful in that operation and I got an XML and a BGL file. With the related textures, I had a library with texture and scenery folder inside.
I tried to use Rwy12 Object Placer and the SDK Object Placement tool too to view my building and place ii in some airport, but I failed in this.
So the help I need is: how I must utilize the Library Creator files in Rwy (or the object placement tool in FSX) to get the result?
Many thanks for your answer

Hi,

Rwy12 was designed for fs2004 and I would not use it with fsx. For fsx you can better use WhisPlacer or the sdk placement tool.

For the sdk placement tool you just need to put your library in an active scenery folder. Then the object will show in the list (not by name, but by the guid).

If you are using a sketchup object and only want to place it in a few locations, it might be even easier to do the placement from modelconverterx directly when you convert the object.
 
Many thanks Arno. I think the better thing to do is to download WhisPlacer and test it.
