if anyone is interested we've created a small tool that will set an InstanceId value in case it shows InstanceId="{00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}" (this is the case when you save the work in whisplacer as an XML mission file). the tool also let you set all objects to activated=true\false.

this is very usefull if you are creating a mission using many scenery objects (the mission I used it for has over 3000 objects). you can use whisplacer ( http://lc0277.nerim.net/wiki/index.php?whisplacer ) which is a very user friendly tool for placing objects in FS and save as a mission XML the output. then use this tool to correct the instanceID issue. now all you have to do is copy paste the scenery objects into your mission's main XML
hope you'll find it usefull
