• 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.

SimObjects GLTF not created

Hi All
I ran into very strange new problem in creating static SimObjects!
I did all by the book so until now I did not have any problem
I can't guess what happens
after using the " fspackagetool" and without errors the folder in the SimObjects\landmarks that containing for example "box"

now the packages folder ready looking into SimObjects\landmarks\box\model.box I get only this two files and also no texture folder
sim.cfg
[VERSION]
Major=1
Minor=0

[fltsim.0]
title=box
model=box
texture=

[General]
category=StaticObject
[Surface]
IgnoreObjectsCollision=1

now! in the "model.box" folder no GLTF
only
box.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ModelInfo guid="{96001d70-db4d-4735-af5a-1acd03358f24}" version="1.1">
</ModelInfo>
and the model.cfg
[models]
normal=box.xml

again no gltf no bin and no texture folder
all other SimObjects that I build before 2 month ago Are OK Jetway and so...

here is a part from the PackageDefinitions all works fine expect the "box" very simple test model


<AssetGroup Name="box">
<Type>SimObject</Type>
<Flags>
<FSXCompatibility>false</FSXCompatibility>
</Flags>
<AssetDir>PackageSources\SimObjects\landmarks\box\</AssetDir>
<OutputDir>SimObjects\landmarks\box\</OutputDir>
</AssetGroup>

<AssetGroup Name="limc-wigwag">
<Type>SimObject</Type>
<Flags>
<FSXCompatibility>false</FSXCompatibility>
</Flags>
<AssetDir>PackageSources\SimObjects\landmarks\limc-wigwag\</AssetDir>
<OutputDir>SimObjects\landmarks\limc-wigwag\</OutputDir>
</AssetGroup>

<AssetGroup Name="limc-jetway">
<Type>SimObject</Type>
<Flags>
<FSXCompatibility>false</FSXCompatibility>
</Flags>
<AssetDir>PackageSources\SimObjects\landmarks\limc-jetway\</AssetDir>
<OutputDir>SimObjects\landmarks\limc-jetway\</OutputDir>
</AssetGroup>

<AssetGroup Name="limc-lamp">
<Type>SimObject</Type>
<Flags>
<FSXCompatibility>false</FSXCompatibility>
</Flags>
<AssetDir>PackageSources\SimObjects\landmarks\limc-lamp\</AssetDir>
<OutputDir>SimObjects\landmarks\limc-lamp\</OutputDir>
</AssetGroup>

Big thanks to you all
 
Your box.xml doesn't contain any <LOD>

You should tell the compiler what glTF he has to compile

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ModelInfo>
    <LODS>
        <LOD minSize="0" ModelFile="box.gltf"/>
    </LODS>
</ModelInfo>

Btw GUID is not used in Simbojects, they are selected by name, so better use a unique one
