• 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.

The FsDeveloper Trouble shooter is very clear and helpfull and I've done everyting recomended on there.
But the Tools Bar still isnt appearing??

I Brought FSX Gold a while back, Installed FSX, Acceleration, and SDK.
Then to try and fix the "Tools" problem I installed the SDK Service Pack 1A,
I went to Install Service Pack 2 and it says if I have Acceleration, Do NOT Install SDK Service Pack 2, So I didnt!

Can anyone help on why it isnt working? am I missing something really simple?

Heres me dll file:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>
<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">
<Descr>Launch</Descr>
<Filename>dll.xml</Filename>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>
<Launch.Addon>
<Name>Object Placement Tool</Name>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
<Path>..\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Mission Creation Kit\object_placement.dll</Path>
</Launch.Addon>
</SimBase.Document>


Thanks

While you DON'T install the SDK SP2, you DO have to install the SDK Acceleration!
 
Okay, I installed the Acceleration SDK and its worked now, Thanks so much,

However,Sorry to be an idiot but when I start up the Object Placement Tool, no libary objects appear for me to choose and place?

Hi Conor,

You mean that if you navigate to the type llibrary object in the OPT you don't see the list of objects? When you just open the OPT you are not in the mode to place library objects directly, for that you need to select scenery objects (or something like that first).
 
Thanks Arno, Ill try that, your very helpfull on here, it still amazes me how you seem to know the answer to everything Flight Sim related! haha

Thanks again

Mabye Microsoft should just fully proof check their products before releasing them , and not just release a half finished one and then thousands of Service Packs!!!!!:mad::confused:

There has never been any software released that didn't require at least one or more service updates...

Every time there's a core program service update, the SDK has to be updated as well.
