Flight Toolkit 1.1.9 (beta)

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.

Hi Steve.

 

I get a failure in the FSX conversion:

 

 

C:\Program Files (x86)\Flight Tools>MkDir FSX-SE_Base
A subdirectory or file FSX-SE_Base already exists.

C:\Program Files (x86)\Flight Tools>"Flight Toolkit\ContentConverter" FSX /l:fsx_se_conversion.log /i:"C:\Program Files

Press any key to continue . . .

 

TerrainAutogenClassDescriptions.xml doesn't exist as it is TerrainAutogenClassDescriptions.spb in FSX

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.

It installed with no problems. I have only made 3 clandestine flights with it so far and everything was good.

Thanks again Stonelance! :excl:

I'm guessing the directory doesn't exist. Try creating it and run again. Probably a bug with my tool

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)

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 :lol:

Thanks ever so much stonelance!!! :excl: :excl: :excl: J.R.  :smile:

Well that's the beta process for you!!!

 

What I don't understand is why it's looking in my Addon Scenery folder and trying to convert models from there - there's nothing in that folder.  :excl: 

Sorry about that Steve, I should have searched through the whole log before posting the previous error!

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:  :crazy:
