June 29, 201015 yr Hi,I would like to reposition a building, I have a bgl file, a XML, and of course a BMP file. I want to reposition the building now in FSX. What file have I to change and what extension has it and what program do I need to edit it? Or can I add a new file to position it in the FSX into the Addon-Scenery?Thanks in advantage.

Where did you get them and are they for the one building in question only?
June 30, 201015 yr Hello Alex,This can be a simple operation with the right tool. If you use SBuilderX, then:1. simply append either the bgl or the xml file (either one) in order to get all the objects2. You can also display a background of aerial images from any of the popular web servers (Google, etc.)3. Select the exclusion tool and drag a rectangle around the object to be removed4. Choose the type of exclusion desired5. Then, move the object to the desired location6. Then, just compile to get new object and exclusion bgls.Best regards.Luis Hot, humid Caribbean paradise!

July 1, 201015 yr Author Thank you very much! It has helped me a lot, and I've looked for a long time for a toll like this
July 1, 201015 yr Author One question, is the height of the building automaticilly set or have I to do this?Best RegardsAlexK
July 2, 201015 yr Hello Alex,Generally, objects are set on the ground, that is, at 0 feet AGL. So, you should not have to worry about this. However, many people report that generic buildings seem to float a little above the ground and this may happen to you. Only solution that I know of is to not look! :( Just kidding.Best regards.Luis Hot, humid Caribbean paradise!
