Hi,

 

I'm in need of help.

 

I'm trying to place VOR and NDBs around Sweden (old ones not existing today) but can't seem to do it. I tried scasm first and that generates a bgl file but when I the VOR doesn't show up in FS9. Then I tried bglcomp and a xml file that I pretty much ripped of the default scenery file containing VORs using a decompiler. That one doesn't even compile to a bgl file though.

 

Here is the test in the file for scasm:

 

Nav(3 4 58:28:51 15:41:03 114.00 75nm 0 TUA)

 

 

And here is the xml content:

 

 

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<FSData

version=”9.0”

xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/20...Schema-instance'

xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="bglcomp.xsd" >

<!-- Facility and scenery data goes here -->

<Vor

dme="TRUE"

dmeOnly="FALSE"

lat="58.4810"

lon="15.6842"

alt="60.96M"

type="HIGH"

frequency="114.000"

range="361237.0M"

magvar="3.5"

region="ES"

ident="TUA"

name="TUNA"

dme="TRUE">

</Vor>

<Ndb

lat="58.6095"

lon="16.1032"

alt="74.98M"

type="H"

frequency="0412.00"

range="138937.0M"

magvar="-1.89999389648438"

region="ES"

ident="LM"

name="BRAVALLA">

</Ndb>

</FSData>

 

 

 

 

Anyone that can spot what I am doing wrong?

There are several apparent errors in the XML including what seem to be invalid quotes around the 9.0 and a duplicated property dme=true.

 

This code seems to compile fine:

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>

<!-- Created by Scenery Design Engine (SDE) on 18/04/2012 -->

<FSData

If you are not using a helper when compiling so that you can see the errors then you might want to get one. CompilerHelper is available from www.fsdeveloper.com or my tool Xml2Bgl.

 

The attachment shows the output related to the first error.

Hi Jon!

 

Thanks for your tips, I tried compilehelper with the above code and got the following response:

 

 

 

Parsing document: tuna.xml

 

ERROR C2033: XML Parse Error (line, column, error)

Parse complete!

 

 

By the way, is there a way to use Airport Design Editor to place VOR without having to create an airport?

looks like a typo. Use exactly this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<FSData
  version="9.0"
  xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="bglcomp.xsd">

</FSData>

 

and put your VOR or whatever else nested inside

This code seems to compile fine:

 

 

It might if it had been surrounded by "Code" tags.
