Addon Organizer select multiple scenery entries export xml?

[theskyisthelimit 48]

Is there an easy way to get a bunch of scenery.cfg entries converted to an addon xml document.. and is there a limit to how many you can have in one document.. i potentially could have 1000 at some point.. at least 100-500 for now though..

When using multiselect in the tool the option to send to xml gets grayed out.. perhaps a command line or batch file method exists?  Or.. an easy way to import many folders into scenery.cfg in the old way?

Thanks in advance

Yes. Use Multiselect, check your items, then right-click on one of them. The context menu contains the item "Move selected", which will open a dialog where you can transfer them between scenery.cfg and addon.xml

If you send me an email (address is on the last page of the P4AO manual) then I will send you a new P4AO version to test, that can import scenery recursively (both into addon.xml and scenery.cfg)

There are no official numbers about any limits. But gut feeling says that you can have any number of entries in the same add-on.xml, while you should keep the total number of those xml files relatively small. And don't add \scenery and \texture as separate Addon Components. Just target the top folder like you always did and add that as Scenery.

Best regards
