Missing scenery objects SU4

Version: 1.6.34.0

Bug description:

Scenery object “Gable_Cone_RedWhite_LOD0“ was present in the scenery objects list in scenery editor before SU4.

Now it is missing in the scenery objects list and not loaded in scenery that uses it also.

I suppose it may belong to one of the following libraries as there are similar white cones:

  • microsoft-airport-ymbt-mountbeauty
  • microsoft-airport-ylre-longreach
  • microsoft-airport-yshl-shellharbour

The same has happened to the following objects as well (not sure what library they are from):

  • MISC_trash_01
  • MISC_trash_02
  • LECO_Roadsign_22

Hello @TestPilot823

Unfortunately, these airports are 1st part content and are not maintained by Asobo.
We cannot provide any guarantee on such content’s backward compatibility.

This would not be the same if the objects were coming from fs-base-modellib, where any breaking changes can be considered as a bug.

Now, I agree that the line between what assets can be used or not is blurry, and that the Scenery Editor does not help in that regard. Improving the way it handles dependencies is something we discuss on a regular basis and I hope we will move forward on this at some point.

In the meantime, you should consider any reference to an asset not belonging to a package prefixed with fs-base as at risk.

Regards,
Sylvain
