• 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.

FS2004 LOM GUID Issue

Hi,

I was helping someone over at the Chat forum with ADE and ran into a GUID issue.

First, I added a library BGL using the LOM and Add File button. I then found the object that I was interested in - the terminal building.

Note the GUID - it ends in 67f8. This is correct, based on the original library XML file. Clicked the Save button.

Then back in ADE I used Add.../Library Object and chose my object #12 again:

But wait, the GUID now ends in 5497! That's not right. But the dimensions are exactly the same so I know it's the correct building. I then press the Add button.

My terminal building is then added to the airport. I choose Edit Object, and the correct GUID appears again:

So it appears that the Add Library Object dialog box is displaying an incorrect GUID for the object, for some reason.

Hope this helps,
 
Thanks Tom - I have never seen that but then, to be honest, I don't check the GUIDs when I am adding objects. It has probably been like this for ever. I will take a look It might just be the formatter for the guid
