• 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.

Saving Error

Hello

I have many older FS9 AF2 files; they just contain single bush strip, and still work correctly in FSX.

Now, I want to adapt them to FSX. I use ADE 52 "Transfer to FSX" item.
I think it just decompile old FS9 file, and recompile as FSX file?

I need to make some light changes, especially to adjust elevation more precisely, and use new Mag Var.
I made the changes for Mag Var, then click Save in dialog box; then, when I want to save the file, I get a first message box:
(no title) Got Error - OK button
I click ok, then second message box:
Titel: Bgl File Save - OK button
I click ok.
However, when reopening the file, no change has been saved.

As an other part, such "Transferred to FSX" bgl files can't be read in FSX Planner: I get the message "There are no airports in this XML file"

Thanks for help!

Can you post one or more of these files please so that I can take a look ath them?

Thanks
 
Ok!

I join de af2 file and the xml file generated by ADE; the xml file has the mag var changed (13.2), instead of 11.7 in af2.

Thanks! Pierrot - FMEP
