August 9, 200520 yr Hi,I need to have the possibility to name oceanic waypoints with 6 characters.I edited the schema and the BGLcomp.exe accepted it.But installed the file into FS9 the waypoints have been renamed by FS9.Example: N57W20 has been renamed G108Why?G.Franco
August 9, 200520 yr Author Commercial Member Hi,It could very well be that, although BGLComp accepted it, FS does not like the tweaked schema you used. The limit that you changed probably wasn't there for fun. Arno If the world should blow itself up, the last audible voice would be that of an expert saying it can't be done.

August 9, 200520 yr hi,yes obviously it wasn't there for fun but it should be interesting to understand why and how the waypoints are inserted in FS9 but with a different name not included at all in the compiled .xml doc.G.Franco
August 10, 200520 yr Author Commercial Member Have you examined the description of the XML/BGL format that comes with BGLAnalyzer? It contains quite some useful information, but I am not sure if waypoints are in there as well.If a certain amount of bytes are defined for the name of the waypoint in the BGL format, that would explain the limit.
