• 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.

Does MCX change the GUIDs when loading say a SCA file, or does it keep the original one? Trying to make a new BGL files that have the same GUIDs as the original, but broken up into separate library files readable by EZ Scenery. Object is to keep the same ones so that I don't have to individually replace each item. Would like to be able move some of objects around to their proper location.
 
If there is a guid present MCX will keep it. But not all sca files have a guid. If none is present, MCX will assign a new one.
 
I guess if I run up MCX 2 or 3 times and the GUIDs are always different, that means there aren't any.
 
You can assign the proper guid in the object information, if you know it.

Correct, then it seems the file you are loading has no GUID and MCX assigns a random one each time.
