Repositioning FS9 airport buildings

Featured Replies

I have done some conversion work on EBBR (Brussels) using the FSX stock airport as base and then converting with FSX2FS9 to a FS9 bgl. In the conversion pocess I excluded Library Objects, Taxi signs and windsocks. When I open FS9 I see that some parking places are covered with buildings. Is there anyway I can reposition these buildings. I realize that I can reposition the parkings but that is not the object of this exersize. I do this conversion as I act as Ground Control with a mixed (FSX and FS9) group of German online flyers and it is a distinct advantage, also in Euroscope,to have both sims display the same (or nearly) airport layouts.

I assume that building is inside that fs9 bgl file? I assume this file includes airport information as well as building information? You might be able to load this BGL file into ADE9 (Open Airport from BGL), and then move the buildings in that program. If not I don't know of a way to move it, without decompiling the BGL file into XML and then changing the lat and long position of that building (finding it could be tricky, but it should have coordinates in the XML file that correspond to the lat and long of the middle of that building in FS). Then recompile with BGLComp.Hope this helps,
