• 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.

Weirdest thing with DetectFeatures export...

All of a sudden I cannot get scenproc to export the file after feature detection. The file simply does not show up at all. It shows no errors, and it appears that the file was saved, but when I go to look, nothing is there. I've tried changing the file name, tried changing the location to where it is saved, but the exported file doesn't exist.

Here's the config:


ImportINF|c:\FSET\work\AreaFSInfo_Lp0_SnapOff_N035035532_N035015236_W085193919_W085172941.inf
SPLITGRID|AGN|*
#
DETECTFEATURES|FTYPE=RASTER|c:\users\wee\desktop\chat.tfc|veg|trees
#
MERGEGRID
#
EXPORTSHP|FTYPE=POLYGON|veg_trees|c:\users\wee\desktop\detected



So to repeat, this was working like two days ago just fine. Suddenly the file veg_trees isn't created even though scenProc says it was...
 
That's weird, I haven't touched any of this code. Let me see if I can reproduce it.
 
One thing I noticed is some issues in some places in ScenProc with FULL Directory Paths, the ImportOGR path works fine with full paths, but then some of the other functions will not generate autogen if you put the full directory path (like in the SplitGrid), so I always do this:

(FULL PATH)
IMPORTOGR|D:\___AutogenDev\UtahBuildings_SouthernHalf.shp|*|*|NOREPROJ
#
(NO FULL PATH)
SPLITGRID|AGN|*|FROMFILE=UtahBuildings_SouthernHalf.shp
#
 
Yes, the FROMFILE attribute should only contain the filename, not the path. That's how it's designed. There is a FROMPATH as well if I remember correctly.
 
Hi,

I just ran a test here and I see no problems with saving the detected features. Are you sure there are no errors in the event log?
