Library Creator

[saabpilot]

Hi,

I have exported 1 Aircraft MDL from Gmax and tried to make a library.
I only get a lot of errors.
My install is the very latest avail for both Gmax as well as Libray Creator. :mad:

Something I do is terribly wrong, please help to pin it down.

The error message box in Library Creator:


D:\DESIGN TOOLS\GMAX\gamepacks\fs2004>C:

C:\>cd "C:\Program\SceneryDesign.org\Library Creator XML"

C:\Program\SceneryDesign.org\Library Creator XML>bglcomp compile.xml

Your problem is explained in the error message box you've attached:
ERROR C2473: Model is not an FS9 scenery model D:\DESIGN TOOLS\GMAX\gamepacks\fs2004\B737-1.mdl

You can't make scenery object library from aircraft models. If you want to use aircraft as static scenery object export it as "Flightsim scenery object (*.mdl)" instead of "Flightsim aircraft object (*.mdl)" in GMax.
