• 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.

FSX "File too small" error update

Hi,

Update on “file too small” problem.

Looking through files that were on an external hard drive that survived my “blue screen” crash I came across another MCX zip file

Using this new MCX I find that although it shows errors in the export log it now produces working .bgl files for FSX.

This must have been the version I used before

Enclosed is a screenshot of the working version showing the build number.

This may be of help to anyone else having similar problems on a 32bit XP system .

Regards

DGB

That older version doesn't have the new library for COLLADA files yet that gives the "file too small" error.

It would still be interesting to know why this error shows, since I could not reproduce it here. Looking at the source code it should only happen for files that are only a few bytes. So for example when saving failed or they got corrupt.
 
I agree... it would interesting in finding the cause of.

Are there any others that are running MCX on a 32-bit computer anywhere?
