Help! BGLCOMP won't compile anything...

[chris004]

not the example xml files included in the bglcomp_sdk folder:

(MortonWa.xml, Chelan.xml),

not the examples from FS2004BGLCompSDK.doc (see end).

 

I have been working the problem of placing a single object in fs9 for longer than I care to admit, thinking there was something wrong with the xml I was producing. Now I see the problem is a bit more fundamental...

 

 

 

From FS2004BGLCompSDK.doc:

Scenery objects are placed inside of the elements. The following XML shows the XML file structure used for scenery objects and will put an oil drilling rig next to the runway at SeaTac airport.

bglcomp output:

Looks like you are missing MSXML4- https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=15697
