ADE Compiler Error Message

[alG18]

I recently converted a SketchUp model using MCX. After conversion, I placed it in my scenery and the message below is what I get when trying to compile the scenery. Attached is the.MDL file with textures.


INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR: #C2014: Failed to load model data in file: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\SAMM2\Models\FSX\lIMO\pLIMO.mdl
INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR: #C2149: Failed to load model data! Does the file exist?
INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR: #C2340: Failed to finalize MODEL_DATA!

Can't see anything in there. MCX just opens a blank page.

I think the model format may be too new for ADE:



Try exporting an FSX model from MCX.

Yeah, I got this model from SketchUp, so there's no way that I will be able to use this?

George told you - export an FSX format model from ModelConverterX.

I have been trying to export the model to a FSX format model and I am still having erros. I followed the YouTube videos but once I open it in ADE I get an error message. Can you help me solve this issue?

I loaded this model into a P3D v5 project, placed and compiled it. There was no compiler error which suggests that this model is not suitable for FSX. ADE throws no errors when decompiling or adding the model or creating the footprint.

To be exact your model reports a mdlType of PV20 where FSX needs MDLX. It is a fault in ADE that it does not identify incompatible model types and this is the first time I can recall it being reported. I will add this to the work list.

Meantime I don't know if it is possible to change the model type to an earlier one - someone else will have to answer that

That is weird because the model is just imported from Sketchup. Could the problem arise from my own fault that I have the Lockheed Martin SDK? Thanks for your help.

To compile to FSX you will need to use the P3D v1.4 SDK, nothing later.

I downloaded that version but when I go to add the bgl to the library object folder, I get the message attached in the picture.
