Need help with execbuild

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.microsoft.flight-sim (More info?)

I have tried to exclude som buildings at St Barthelemy airport and
have been able to generate sourcecode and save sourcecode and
generate bgl, but here's where the problem is. I can't generate a bgl
only a xml which I put in the folder where I have BGLComp_SDK, but if
I try to execute bglcomp.exe nothing happens, and no bgl file is
created. I do have the MSXML4 installed which apparently is required.
Any help will be appriciated

Don't try to "execute bglcomp.exe" at all; simply drag the edited .xml file
in Windows Explorer and drop it on bglcomp.exe...

I'm no scenery builder,but I have a recollection from somewhere that you
drag the source file over the bglcomp.exe icon and it then runs,using the
source file as info and should produce a bgl
file................................................I think

I've done what you and Bill suggested and I can see in a flash that it
creates something, but I can't find the bgl file anywhere. The
sourcefile was called tffj.xml and I assume that the created file
would be called tffj.bgl, but after having searched all of my HD, I
can only find one file with that name, and thats the original file in
the addon/scenery dir.

Is your tffj.mdl file in the same folder as the tffj.xml file? If not, is
the path in the .xml file to the tffj.mdl file correct?

As an alternative to drag-n-drop, open a "Command Box" (what used to be
called a "DOS Window!") and CD (change directory) to whichever folder (used
to be called "directory") that BGLComp.exe is located.

Type the following and press enter:

bglcomp.exe tffj.xml tffj.bgl

You will be able to read any error messages that way.

Hmm, I don't have a tffj.MDL file just a tffj.XML

There's certainly something wrong cause I get this when executing the
DOS command:

Parsing document: tffj.xml

Parse complete!

Sorry. I had a brain fart there for a moment. Excludes don't have .mdl
files! <insert embarrased grin here>

Although it seems silly, reverse the two longitude values. In the West,
larger numbers are actually smaller... 😉
