• 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.

Exporting FS9 models from 3ds Max 9?

Hi all,

I was wondering...
Is anyone still doing modelling for FS9? ;)
Amongst those who are - and amongst those amongst those who are using 3ds... is there a way of exporting FS9 models from 3ds Max 9?
The original plugins from the FS9 SDK have been for Max 5 and they don't seem to be working in Max 9.
Does anyone know a way round this (well, apart from getting Max 5 "from somewhere")?

Many thanks in advance!

Cheers
Wolfgang
 
Hi Wolfgang,

As far as I know the SDK only contains GMax plugins, I don't think these work in 3DS Max. I think in the past some people have used X file exporters for 3DS and then compiled that X file through MakeMDL manually. But if you want FS specific features (platforms, attachpoints) that will require manual editing.
