• 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.

Hello, i am trying to convert a plane to P3s V4.5, so far, loading and converting the model to P3D worked perfectly and i can properly see it in the simulator with all the animations working properly (that i can tell), however, when i try to convert the same model (it is a FS9 model) TO FS9 (and save it with a different name), i get an error, i have tried many different ways but it always fails when saving it as FS9 model, i have FS9 installed and the FS9 SDK installed also, and the paths are properly set in the program.
I am trying to save the model as FS9 model to be able to open it in ACM, to properly get the cfg points.
I am including a copy of the events log.

The biggest errror that I am seeing in the log is the co-located verticies...Try ignore warnings in makemdl and try again.
 
You are still getting the co-located verticies....Try this....convert to a .X file in MCX and drop the .X file onto makemdl. When makemdl opens go to the settings and make sure all the ignores are checked, then try to compile the model
 
Ok...it could be that you have hit the 60K ceiling of what the compiler can handle.
 
If it was a P3D or FSX model first then it didn't have the limit...You can technically compile a model larger than 60K for FS9, but it requires breaking the model apart into separate LODs and modifying the .asm and compiling thru BGL9_C.
Search for ULE here to find the walkthru.
 
No, the model is native FS9, but i converted it to P3D V4 (with no issues), and i want to recompile it for FS9 because MCX has made some fixes to it, and to try and see if i can open it with ACM.
 
OK, i started to try to strip it off everithing i could and finally was able to make it compile for FS9, i can finally open it on ACM but the model looks messed up (wheels are wrong, doors are open, engine covers are open and some control surfaces are missing), however it does appears normal in fs9.
Thanks a HUGE lot for all the help people!
