• 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.

"Add empty LOD"..?

I will double check my version tonight.
 
Hi,

Sorry, FSWeekend here in the Netherlands kept me quite busy.

The version I use is 9.00.030612.02. So it seems to be the same version you are using. Not sure why it doesn't work for you.

Do you maybe have a MakeMDL.cfg in your MakeMDL folder that might overwrite some of the exporter settings?
 
Yep !
I have a cfg that includes:

[Settings]
LastDir=E:\gmax\Scenes

[options]
Crash = 0
nightmap = 1
damagemap = 0
ignore warnings = 1
Click to expand...

BTW, despite the nightmap settings, mdl compiled doesn't embed night texture...

Wil try without !
 
Hi,

ModelConverterX set the compile options as command line arguments when calling MakeMDL. I am not sure if that overwrites the CFG or not. I was just wondering what might give the difference.
 
Well, I didn't have nightmap but looking for makemdl parameters, I found out syntax was not correct

Nightmap=1 has to be replaced by HasNightmap=1

Then the nightmap is embedded :)

BUT still no LOD layer, only the geometry... :confused:

I gonna try with another computer...
 
I am thinking what else could cause the difference, but I have run out of ideas for the moment.
