• 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.

Hi,

Have here an Airport for Windows file that I like to replace with software like Ade so that I can fire up the addon scenery, containing ID airport, location, places where an aircraft can start from (apron, runway, ...). When I remove this AFW-file, the scenery doesn't appear at all in FSX.
I like to be able opening the bgl.-file, read it and edit it. Mayby I can change it into an xml-file Which programs should I use and how ? Or is there another simple way to achieve it ?

Greetz. José.
 
Hello:

You may wish to review this thread for some info on using BGLAnalyze version 3.1 to de-compile the legacy-format AFD / AFCAD BGL into SCASM (*.SCA or *.SCM) source code ASCII text.

http://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/threads/how-to-edit-addon-airports.434142/

When viewed in a text editor such as NotePad (or better yet NotePad++), you can find most of the info you may need to enter into a newer format airport editor such as ADE or AFX to create / edit the airport you are working on.

Hope this helps ! :)
