• 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.

FSX Unhandled Exception Ground Polygon Wizard

Hi Arno,

You're back from holiday and I'm back with another unhandled exception.:confused: I am trying to create a ground polygon bgl from a sketchup model. Because the model is so big I am first exporting it as a kmz file. Then I unzipped it and renamed the dae from untitled to a meaningful name. I loaded it into the ground polygon wizard and then went into the MCX's material editor to change the texture names to the same as used in the model before export. I then loaded the placement settings into the wizard and got the error message when processing into a ground polygon. I will send you an email with the model and textures. The error message is attached below. Thanks for your help.

Hi,

I got your files and will try to reproduce the issue here.
 
Arno,

I have just now gotten the model to work. I used the material editor to change not only the names of the textures but also the format (jpg to dds). It then compiled into a bgl cleanly. When I created the error I used the material editor only to change the texture names and then in the ground polygon wizard I had checked the box to convert the textures before processing. I am ok with the result I have now and you don't need to pursue an answer. Thanks.

Ok, happy to hear you got it working already.
