• 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.

BGL to XML Converter?

Hi. Is there a FSX BGL to XML converter other than the Scruffy Duck one? That one requires NetFramework 2.0 which I can't install. Without a converter I can't run FSX Planner. Thanks, regards, Bob.
 
Try BglAnalyzeX

But can you tell me why you can't install the net framework?

I have tried, along with the third level MS Support personnel on the phone, and cannot install it. I spent about three weks with them on the phone and never was able to install it. There is a registry entry that is corrupted. I get a BSOD trying to install it, with no error shown. I don't want to reformat to fix it.
Best regards, Bob.
 
OK then see how BglAnalyzeX works. It is written in C++ and does not need the dotNET Framework. As far as I know if does decode everything correctly
that you will need for FSXP.
 
Then I can only suggest you either bite the bullet and sort out the dotNet issue. An awful lot of programs use it these days.

Hi. Thanks. I already have AFX. It does not need BGL to XML conversion to run it. I like your program too and just wanted to be able to use it. Regards, Bob.

We are working on integrating the conversion of blg files to xml files into FSX Planner. As soon as we have the finished it will be included in a release. Then external convertors will not be necessary.

Hi. That's GREAT! Will it require NFW2.0? I hope not. I'll be awaiting it. I like your program a lot. Regards, Bob.

Thanks for the kudos!

Nope, the one we are working on is java based. So right now NFW2.0 won't be required.
