• 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.

Hello, I am trying to edit my airport by adding a few building to my already completed airport, however, when I try to load the bgl for editing, my building are no longer there.
I did save and compiled, but buildings will not show up again in ADE when I want to edit. Can you help me? I am using ADE version 1.79.7439 and P3dv4.5

I have moved this post to the ADE forum. If I read it right you appear to be loading your airport work from a compiled bgl file. This is absolutely not recommended with ADE. You should always work with the project file (.ad4 extension). Or are you loading a bgl file into ADE from a different source. Also are you referring to buildings showing in ADE or in the sim?

Perhaps you can provide more information about what you are doing

It sounds like your library objects missing in flight simulator folder scenery addon/scenery/ you need to add this. Try to check your folder if there is filename example fs9_custom_building_ss.bgl etc..

It is most likely that you used a "Split Compile". In that case, load from the airport bgl then import the "Obj" bgl.

However, you should do as Jon said "You should always work with the project file (.ad4 extension). "
