April 21, 201511 yr I'm releasing this as a beta as there are some old changes in here and I can't remember how well I tested them earlier. If you have the older version of the 1.1.9 beta, you will probably have to uninstall it manually before installing this: http://www.flighttoolkit.com/Downloads/FlightToolkit_1_1_9.zip Changes: - Add support for "World" aerocache region in the "Add aerocache" options- Add support for exclusion and timezone BGL layers- Add slightly better error reporting in the installer- Update SimPropCompiler to use new API. You can now save out FSX formatted SPB by using the "2fsx_spb" option- Improve reliability of installing addons over existing ones FSX Conversion:- Improve MDL animation script conversion (I hope)- Add AerocacheArea tag to generated scenery.cfg.meta to enable the World as a region in the aerocache filter list- Add conversion of LCs that don't have an associated agn file by parsing the terrain autogen coverage descriptions. This fixes LCs that were entirely covered in vegetation not actually having vegetation in Flight- Fix conversion overwriting some valid lclookup data from Flight resulting in some purple textures in mountain areas- Add remapping of some FSX scenery objects ids to higher quality ones in Flight- Add conversion of taxiway signs- Improve conversion of airports including supporting airport deletes If you see any regressions please let me know. If no one notices any significant issues in a week or so I will put this version on the website.
April 21, 201511 yr Hi Steve.

April 22, 201511 yr Author Oh whops! I forgot I had manually converted them all to xml. I'll make a quick fix. Edit: Ok try again. Same link. You will have to manually uninstall first.
April 22, 201511 yr It installed with no problems. I have only made 3 clandestine flights with it so far and everything was good. Thanks again Stonelance! :excl: J. R. :ph34r:

Kavinda J.D ^_^
April 23, 201511 yr Author I'm guessing the directory doesn't exist. Try creating it and run again. Probably a bug with my tool
April 23, 201511 yr Probably just the tool then! Thanks for the support Steve and thanks for checking Jack! Kavinda J.D ^_^
April 23, 201511 yr Author Ok, I updated the download again. Uninstall Flight Toolkit, and then download and install it again. Should fix that problem (if my hunch was correct)
April 24, 201511 yr I just uninstalled and downloaded the corrected toolkit, and reran the converter, and it completed. To me it's kind of funny, but to just uninstall and to re-install the toolkit I have to "Disable Antivirus Auto-Protect". I can understand it for downloading of the toolkit, but for uninstalling the previous version makes no sense to me. LOL Thanks ever so much stonelance!!! :excl: :excl: :excl: J.R. :smile: J.

April 24, 201511 yr Hey KavindaJD, I just went and took a look at my Flight Toolkit "ContentConverter" and I did not have any "Errors" or "Missing or error converting model", I had a lot of "Warning: Can't convert unmapped FSX effect to Flight" but I think that's to be expected. So as to why you are getting them, is beyond me? :huh: J. R. :ph34r:
