FS20 BGL File Format

From FSDeveloper Wiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

This is a terse reference for the FS20 (MSFS) BGL file format.

Much of the original BGL File Format information still applies in terms of BGL format and a number of the mathematical transformations used to decode certain data types.

This page should be used in conjunction with that page for a more full understanding of the FS20 BGL format, in particular everything in BGL Common Format still holds.

Note that BGL section IDs are encoded in FSSectType, which are largely identical to FSX with a couple of additions.
