• 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.

MCX Another .dae file import problem

Hi Arno,

I'm guessing that this may have something to do with object complexity and the new Assimp library.

I get this error when I try to import the below attached Collada file:

I can import other less complex objects with no problem.

Also, the attached file imports with no problems using the MCX version dated 4/9/2020, which I think has the older library.

I'll have a look, but this comes from the Assimp library indeed.
 
Hi,

I can reproduce the issue here, but I'm not sure there is a lot I can do about it. Your COLLADA file is only a few MB in size, so I don't consider it to be huge or very complex.

Although the new Assimp library version includes useful bug fixes and supports some additional formats, it also seems to give issues with files that could be loaded before without issues. I'm starting to doubt if updating was such a smart move.
 
Hi,

I think the Assimp build I had included might just have been a bit buggy. I just downloaded a more recent build and with that one I can import your object fine. I will add the newer build to the next development release.
