• 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.

SBuilderX - Custom Objects Error on Compile

Hello,
I'm trying to place a 90x90m custom grass object using SBuilderX. I have followed the directions for adding custom object libraries, however I am getting the following message on compile:
sbx_obj_error.JPG


I have added the following line to FSX_autogen.txt in SBuilderX315\LibObjects:
Code: 
{b09204dc-1a35-4380-a045-32fa6adab99b} 2 90 90 1 grass_sugarcane_90x90

I have tried to export in both SBuilderX313 and 315. Neither will export the placement file for my custom model. If I delete all of my models from the work view and add a default object, the BGL compiles just fine. What could I be overlooking here? It has been years since I added and placed a custom model with SBuilderX, but I don't remember having this much trouble..

I'm still trying to figure out a solution to this issue. Has anyone else been down this route?
 
Hi Chris:

Assuming your custom 3D object MDL is already:

* packaged inside a discrete Scenery Library Object 'Library' BGL properly created via BGLComp

...and that Scenery Library Object 'Library' BGL is in a:

* 'active' Area layer linked to a paired \Scenery and \Texture sub-folder chain under a top folder in the FS Scenery Library GUI stack of layers

...perhaps another review of criteria for adding custom objects to SBuilderX described in:

[SBuilderX install path]\LibObjects\Objects.Txt may help ?

[EDITED]

PS: If that custom MDL is packaged in a discrete Scenery Library Object 'Library' BGL, did you remember to:

* create a discrete [FSX_custom scenery object library file name].txt in: [SBuilderX install path]\LibObjects\ sub-folder ?

* create a discrete "Include=[FSX_custom scenery object library file name].txt" entry in: [SBuilderX install path]\LibObjects\Objects.Txt ?

[END_EDIT]
