Additional information about some experiments: - the error is the same with every project - even trying to place a new object in a new project results in "runtime error 380: invalid property value" --> so I'd guess reviewing my project wouldn't help... :-( - replacing / renewing sbuilder.exe (from s...

Dear Luis, thank you for helping out, I sent you the project file by email. I had already made sure that the "delimiter-error" isn't the reason (i.e. the problem when running European settings with comma as decimal delimiter), but I faced the error with US settings as well. Something different: I ha...

Resolved: Objects inaccessible - Runtime error

Hello everybody, all of a sudden (yesterday everything worked fine) I have trouble placing objects and accessing the old ones in my project. Everytime I try to, I get the "runtime error 280 - invalid property value" and SB closes down (without saving). Lines and polys work fine, and the existing obj...

Hey Kurt, I know how sad it is when you're so much in the mood... and can't get the thing fully working. I guess, since it's the same kind of license for (very very) private use, Luis wouldn't mind ([V]) if I let you have my pw for the moment until you have your own... assuming that an Austrian woul...

Hello Kurt, sorry if your registration doesn't work. I'm only a user myself, but experienced extremely quick support here... Registration, I think, usually is an automated process and real quick. If there's something wrong on the PTSim server, Luis Sá will take care of it very soon - possibly he's o...

Hello Elias, I'm terribly sorry: it seems you haven't got an answer by now because it's impossible to understand what you mean. Please try to explain clearly what's your problem with SBuilder - following the forum you would otherwise see that SBuilder itseld doesn't have any [;)] problems you could ...

Hello Luis and Dick, ... just have to grin when I see I'm a "senior member" now ... [8D] despit not even making my first (well... sophisticated) scenery work. Thank you again for your input. What I hear is that I didn't only stress my own capabilities but even FS9s, so I guess I'd rather make one st...

Good morning, Luis, don't mind about any misspellings [8D] - to be honest I didn't even realize. But thank you again for the other answer. I'll experiment a bit more with flattening and the mesh. Of course I considered FSX, but it seems to need much better computer performance than I have (office PC...

Luis, thanks for the compliment - at that level I gathered my own painful experience so I'll help whereever I can. As you saw in my other posts I'm hanging at different steps of understanding... In case you want to use the REGs I mentioned for one of your next revisions (let's call it the "internati...

Thank you, Dick, for your quick answer. Guess I wasn't clear enough about my goal of HiRes pictures (I want to VFR-show a little village in Goa/India where my daughter Jeanny lives [:D]). The - like Luis calls it - 'SB-Method' goes around Resample at all, but creates tilted polygons from the HR-Phot...

Hello Dave, seing that you didn't get any expert answers yet, I try to help by letting you participate a bit in my own painful beginners experience [V] which I had to go through in the last two weeks. 1. I think your installation itself can't be so wrong - SBuilder does most of it automatically and ...

Hi Dick, from some of your postings I understand that you use the capabilities of SBX to make scenery for FS9? If so, you're "the man" for me... I'm mol a newbie using FS9, and as far as I learned by now there'd be no way to change to SBX. Unfortunately the SB2.05rev06 makes it pretty hard to create...

Urgently need help on 'old stuff'

Hello, please excuse the cross-reference to the general SBuilder section, since I use FS9 and SBuilder 2.05 rev6. After quite some struggling with the issue (pretty tough and confusing for a newbie like me) I have to assume that most of the experienced scenery designers might just not consider the o...

Hello Luis, I put the follow-up into a new thread, so that you're not the only one who feels addressed ... but I guess the other "experts" more or less left this part of the forum? If I can assume your permission, I'd like to place a little cross-reference into the SBX section. Hope I don't bother y...

All blue Photo Scenery

Dear All [:D] trying hard to create my first scenery with HR-Pics for FS9 (requiring the "SB Method" with polygons), I urgently need further advice. Followed every hint I could find, but still end up with a completely blue scenery: [img]uploaded/Mick/2007101741927_SB%20Result%20BlueScene.jpg[/img] L...
