• 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.

Simpropcompiler.exe when FSX not installed

Hi,
I am trying to compile my XML files to SPB files with simpropcompiler in a PC in which FSX is NOT installed.
I've tried to copy propdefs symbols to a local folder, even use them from a shared netowrk (sharing FSX root folder, X:\propdefs\*.xml, for example). No matter what I do, I always get the following error:

Invalid symbol search path : "X:\propdefs\*.xml"
myfile.XML(0) : error 83600fb4 : Unable to load symbols


I have got simpropcompiler.exe and my *.xml files in my work folder.

I try to execute:

simpropcompiler 2spb -symbols X:\propdefs\*.xml myfile.XML myfile.spb
or
simpropcompiler 2spb -symbols X:\propdefs\*.xml -i X:\propdefs\*.xml myfile.XML myfile.spb

So, as if I compile it at my FSX PC, it does it successfully at first try... does anybody know what piece of FSX (registry entries, files, etc.) needs simpropcompiler.exe to compile properly?

Thanks a lot ;-)
