• 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.

LOM Issue

I have been using LOM for several years with no problem. Lately, when I try to import a library file, nothing shows in any of the fields on the form. Here is what I do:
select Import>file type>library>file
in the "New Library" form I choose the xxxx.bgl and click open. The path and file I selected appears in the appropriate field. I enter author and category, then click okay. All fields in the Import form are blank.

It has worked for me in the past. I even tried importing a file that I already have, with the same results. I am using version1.3.60801.1

Any help/advise would be appreciated.

Have you made any changes to the installation? Do you have ADE installed in the same folder structure? I assume this is for FS9.....

Can you send me one or more of the Bgl files that is causing this? - jon AT scruffyduck.co.uk. Unfortunately we do not have the version you refer to currently installed any longer. I have slightly earlier version however.
 
The Library Object Manager is installed on a different drive than FS9. I do not have ADE installed in the same folder structure. I attached a library file, although it won't import any library..even those that it had imported in the past. Do I need to return to an older version?

Problem Solved

I found the problem. I pointed to the incorrect BGL to XML folder. It was trying to use "BGL2XML" instead of "bglxml". Once I pointed LOM to the correct folder, it worked fine! I figured it must be something I did after reloading all my software, as a result of a hard drive crash. Sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused you.
 
No problem. I am pleased that you have it sorted out. :)
