• 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.

Beginner Question - Asset Directory cannot be edited

Hello.

I have a weird problem that i cant seem to figure out by myself....

I have made a project for a small airfield here. So far ive used standard library objects but today i wanted to add objects from Blender.

The first one worked fine, ive made a tower and placed it into the sim via this video here.


All fine, object shows up. Its the red marked bgl on the left side in project editor.

Then ive tried to add a second object in the exact same way but now i cannot edit the entry for the asset folder. It simply cant be edited. If i choose a path nothing gets written in it too, so it doesnt keep the path when i choose one neither can i manually write in this field marked red on the pic.

What can that be? Running in circles now for over an hour. I can edit the output dir but not the asset dir. That entrybox is dead.

Is this the right way anyway? I have to do this for every single object? Cant it be a asset list with many items per entry?
 
You really should have one folder for your library, of type ArtProj, named appropriately. The Bgl type is for your airport facilities, including the placement of your library (ArtProj) objects.

You can then just place all your objects (3 files each) into this one folder.
 
Thank you toprob. Very fast reply.

Was shown like that in another tut but makes sense what you say yes. I think he did it like you said in the vid above too. Ill try that way then.
