P3Dv5.4 bglcomp?

Post by JoHubb »

I cannot find bglcomp.exe for this version.
I have installed the P3D 5.4 SDK.

This executable is not in: \Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5 SDK 5.4.9.2842

I checked all the other obvious locations I could think of. No joy.

I'd be grateful for advice.

I installed the SDK to a folder in my v. 5 folder named SDK.

So my bglcomp is in H:\P3D V5\SDK\World\Scenery.

Thanks.

I ran a repair and the SDK files, including bglcomp.exe, have miraculously appeared.

...and equally miraculously disappeared again.

The screenshots will explain what happens.

Essentially, tbe SDK contents appear when accessed directly.
But, when accessed indirectly using ADE (P3Dv5) the contents in the %World folder (including bglcomp.exe) are nowhere to be seen.

I'd be grateful for advice. Without access to bglcomp.exe for v 5.4.9 I'm stuck.
