• 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.

Arno helped me on this. We found that my bglcomp in my SDK seems to be ok.

so- there must be something happening o my computer that does not allow bglcomp to work.

I cannot compile bgls. error message usually says "this is a bgl of a type not supported"... etc.

This is not just FSDS but other small prorams that use bglcomp.

I tried replacing msxml4 but problem remains. Along with msxml4 there was a cab file... no instructions of where to put it.

Have not found anything on line pertaining to this problem. .... yet.

Not sure if this is the cause..... I have Auslogic defrag which has worked fine for years. I tried a trial version of their registry cleaner which allowed me to fix only 15 of the 90 problems found. I thne decided not to do this and I uninstalled the trial version.

Usually these reg cleaners have a back up which allows you do undo the "clean". I do not know if by uninstalling I lost the back up or not.

I have been wrned to stay away from these so-called reg cleaners and have done so for years. Why I tried it this time I don't know... dumb I guess.

Overall, I don't even know if this were the cause of the existing problem.... just a guess.

I'm just trying to remember anything odd-ball I did recently as a possible cause. help me out here and I promise I won't steal anyone's beer ever again... for 6 weeks.

I guess noone knew so noone responded. howver late this is- what I found was my computer store found it. I had lost avg and sicne I was having trouble finding another free version (it is there- just tough to find sometimes) I found Microsoft essentials. this I was told does a fine job of up to date virus protection but does nothing for spyware, etc!

Sooooo- guess whqat hacked into my computer day after day for a few weeks and screwed up my machine and bglcomp, and chewed up my memory on my hard drive? bingo! you are right!!!! SPYWARE ENCOUNTER OF THE MANY KINDS!!!

All fixed now and AVG is back and running. Ergo- keep your antivirus guy in good order AND your spywar guy in healthy order! AVG has a good spyware thing with it. I am sure many other do too.

I post this to help others. bob
