• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

    I have had issues Steve with the FDE not playing nice with a few specific modelers as well. Try swapping the .air file with something close and just see if it will display to rule that out. Just an idea. Greg

    Bingo. Something in there fixed it. I saw a few that made sense but I changed most to what you are working with and now it exported correctly! Thanks for the help Steve.. Now I just created more work for myself..lol Greg

    Well I couldn't wait.. I tried just now and unticked what you suggested but got the same result. Am I supposed to do something else in there? So there must be another setting we have different maybe?? Thanks Greg

    Correct.. Do not see any texture after the conversion. Not sure if there is a bump or PBR issue but I know it has it on the original models. P3D link for the models is on this page. https://www.alpha-india.net/2024/04/01/aig-boeing-787-series/ Greg

    Got new one that may or may not be able to be addressed. Brand New AIG 787 AI series models. Only P3d supported models so no chance to convert from a native FSX model. First run was the same bones animation issue but I know now where to fix that so not problem. The issue as the screenshots show...

    Sucsess! Thanks Arno for the hint(s) as this was an area I had not played around in, so I have learned new skills that will surely be used down the road most certainly with other models. Compiles and displays correct in the sim now and actually went back an redid the big brother -1000 which had...

    Ok.. I'll play around with that tomorrow and see if I can get some sucesss. I was messing around with it in the animation editor but had some funky results with engines and fan blades hovering above the wings after compiling, but I am pretty green at this so I'll chock that up to me.. lol...

    So is there an easy way to remove those animations Arno. I have been playing with the animation editor for the first time really and have not yet figured out the trick. Am I in the right place to fix these manually or do I go into something else to get rid of them? Thanks, Greg

    The wheel animation is correct but we went backward with the control surface animations. The original FSX models have wingflex and in previous conversions with the older developmental release the control surfaces were flush with the wings. The older developmental release(s) had this figured...

    Experiences with FS2004 aircraft import/export

    This was the most recent developmental release. The one from around mid january was the one that did a previous conversion and worked fine so something changed. LIke I said, the rightside bogies animate and look correct in the sim. It is just the left hand side that is wrong. Otherwise it worked...

    Experiences with FS2004 aircraft import/export

    I have a bug that has appeared since some of my successful conversions with a previous developmental release. Its in the animation in this model with the main gear and specifically the resting of the left main bogies. The right side annimation works and pivots to the level or flat postion, but...

    AIG (Alpha India Group) has the UTT A350-900/1000, AIG A330-800/900 NEO's and the UTT B787-10 all hosted there in the forum/database. I have converted ones in my sim for testing but thats it right now. I would wait just a bit longer for a few more of the issues to get resolved unless you...

    Thanks Tom. Will play around with those settings.. And @Venom... Those three are already converted and flying in FS9, but the newer version MCX is already better and fixing animation issues that were present from early versions. Arno is getting there but the first main focus was UI planes so...

    Thanks for taking the time to show this!. I have been slowly working on some AI planes and have been trying to figure out the exact process to get the night lighting to work properly. Will try this next time I am in conversion mode. Greg

    First one that won't compile for me. Attached is the error log and model maybe you can see where its going wrong...? This was using the lateset dev release but also did not work in any previous release either. Thanks Greg

    Thanks Arno. Will wait until that seems to be addressed. Otherwise, so far so good in a couple of attempts. Will keep playing around with it! Greg
