• 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.

How can I add waypoints to xml file?

I'm building a new airport that doesn't actually exist. Since there is no possibility to add waypoints from msfs using SDKs, I have to manually add all vors and waypoints to object.xml. I managed to introduce vor/dme's, but I can't add waypoints. Error.

What could I be doing wrong?

The compiler is literally telling you where the error is:
In the Dme section of the Vor there is a type in the latitude coordinates (440 instead of something else), that value is out of bounds, cause altitude range from 90 to -90)

Waypoints are still not the culprits

@mamu, thank you for your interest. I didn't see that error, thanks.

After correcting that number, I didn't get an error when I compile it, but when I open my object.xml file in ADE21, only 2 blue-marked vor dots appear. In the places I marked with red, there should be waypoints that I want to add, but they are not visible.

What would be the reason?

Adnan,

you are correct that ADE for MSFS2020 is not recognising waypoints and some others that are not part of the SDK when you tick "Two Way Edit" from your objects.xml.

But, I think, you can construct them in ADE for MSFS and they are written to the objects.xml when you save but when you read in again they are not recognised and lost!
