January 1, 201016 yr I'm having the same issue with Win 7 64. RWY 12 will run, sync with FS, create a bgl file but not in flight sim. just in the RWY12 folder. So I move the bgl to addon scenery\scenery but it won't show up at the place I put it (the object) after restarting FS9. Like it's either not making the bgl correctly or putting it (the object) somewhere else. My guess is it is corrupting the bgl file somehow. Has anyone else used it with win 7?Larry Larry Falcone No matter where you go............... ...................there you are............ Buckaroo Banzai

Has anyone else used it with win 7?LarryUnforuntately I do not run Win 7 (running XP) but I would offer these thoughts:The fact that the BGL (and xml too I suspect) are not being saved where you ask them to be saved, suggests to me that this is a Win 7 issue, perhaps related to the well known Win 7 problem when attempting to add scenery via the Scenery Library dialogue.As to why the objects are not displaying after you manually move the bgl (the xml is not required - it is only used if you wish to edit the bgl) to an active scenery subfolder, that will take some experimentation to find the cause.If you wish, send me a copy of a sample xml and bgl and indicate what the object is and where I should be seeing it. I can then test it on my machine and that should help determine if the bgl is valid or not. If you would like to do that, my address is opaflightsimaddict at verizon dot netI have used RWY12 since it first came out on my XP setup without issue - and I have never heard from anyone who had troubles using it under Vista (assuming they had their permissions set properly). So I am inclined to think the problems are related to Win 7 - but do not want to jump to conclusions.Happy New Year!
January 1, 201016 yr Author That's my problem, LarryRF, except I manually placed my airport bgl in addonscenery/scenery (from c:\rwy12) and the static objects still don't show up. I'm running Win 7 32bit. Darned if I know. One computer ago I had rwy12 items all over my airports. I got this computer and never bothered to reinstall rwy12 until after I upgraded from XP to WIN 7. Think I'll send Opa some offline info also.
January 2, 201016 yr Hi Dave, file is sent to your email.Thanks, Larry Larry Falcone No matter where you go............... ...................there you are............ Buckaroo Banzai
January 2, 201016 yr tom, check your scenery cfg. Use the secenery librairy button. See if the generic libraries are in the list. If not, add them. THen see if it shows up. Not sure if win 7 did it or an addon but both that and the vehilcle librairies were not in my list. After adding them, it works now and I could see my beacons and towers Thanks Dave for \checking my file.LarryForgot, click the browse button when you save the xml file (by using save as command), then save it to add on scenery/scenery. Now click generate button and I am pretty sure it will generate it in the same folder/Larry Larry Falcone No matter where you go............... ...................there you are............
