WorldPosition becomes all zero after saved

Post by Fattysteve »

Hi,I'm trying to use Simdirector to create mission about basic flights.
and whatever i add such as buildings or animals etc... on the map,save the scenario and save as fxml.
when i close simdirector and open the saved scenario,the worldlocation properties (latitude,longitude)became both0,0.
I try to open the other default scenario and save in C:/my document/prepar3d v3 files.the world location properties becomes 0 too.
take the Virtual Reality Demonstration scenario for example.this are what i have done.
1 open the Scenario in
C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\Scenarios\Tutorials\Virtual Reality Demonstration

2 save it in C:\mydoc\Prepar3D v3 Files\test02.fxml(test02.xml is auto created)

3 exit SimDirector

4 re-open SimDirector

5 open the test02.fxml and check 3 tree on fire properties by visualization.

6 find every worldlocation becames 0.

BTW,the scale of the tree can be saved.

Is there something forgotten to do lead to this ?or just bugs?

Hi Steve,

This is not something that should be happening. Check to make sure you don't have any validation errors.

Thank you for your rapidly replying.
Is it possible because the error message: scenario metadata is recommended for scenario?
this is the only error message when i build a new scenario and put an large elephant.
After saved and reopen the scenario,the world locations becomes zero.

Scenario Metadata shouldn't have any effect on that. This is very strange behavior. After you save in SimDirector, can you check the test02.xml file to see what values are stored in there for WorldPosition?
