Content.xml mysteries!.. Can anyone shine any light?...

Featured Replies

I have scanned all my hard disks for this file and found it in the WpSystem folder, but it hasn't been modified for over a year.

It shows all the right content (Asobo, Microsoft, Orbx etc.) but obviously out of date, since none of my newer products are showing in there. 

So basically I have no current up to date content.xml - is it a problem?

All of my purchases and community folder content are showing in the sim, even ones for just yesterday.

I was attempting to find it as the author of a mod (that isn't currently working) told me to shuffle it up the load priority in the content.xml.

I like to trick airline passengers into thinking I have my own swimming pool in my back yard by painting a large blue rectangle on my patio.

This file is obsolete since, I think, SU11. It's been removed for a new content.xml with a completely new function, but - unfortunately - the same naming.

The old one just listed all you sceneries but often became stale after some time. The new on sets scenery priorities, which can be handled via a menu entry (I think unter "experimental").

If you don't have a need to set scenery priorities by hand, you can get rid of it. In any case you can delete the old one.

Kind regards, Michael
