Ahhhh, I'm going nuts here, I've been trying to place a VOR navaid in Sweden, FS9 but I cannot succeed in getting scasm to make the file correctly and I cannot understand what I am doing wrong here.

I cannot find an example of a scasm VOR sca file so I tried making mine like this:

Nav(3 4 58:28:51 15:41:03 114.00 75nm 0 TUA)

But that didn't seem to work, how should I make it?

I tried using Airport design editor but it won't let me place VORs where I want them, I have to make a new airport to place the navaid and that seems a bit silly to me, having to make up a lot of pretend airports just to place a VOR navaid.

Anyone have a good idea on what to do or how to write the sca file for scasm?


Thanks in advance
/Andy

The following xml works for me:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<FSData version="9.0"
xmlns:xsi='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="bglcomp.xsd" >
<Ndb type="MH" name="Goat I NDB" lat="16.960053" lon="-157.652303"
alt="61.876F" frequency="239.00" range="422400.00" magvar="-10.20"
region="K6" ident="PGOB" />
<Vor lat="16.949259" lon="-157.660278" alt="1.680F" type="LOW"
frequency="114.800" magvar="-10.20" range="148160.11" region="K6"
ident="PGOV" name="Goat I VOR" dme="TRUE" dmeOnly="FALSE" >
<Dme lat="16.949259" lon="-157.660278" alt="1.870F" range="316800.00" />
</Vor>
</FSData>

This is an excerpt from an xml file that also contains an airport definition. I just compiled the bits above with bglcomp and it works fine.
