• 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.

FSDS and XML

For a long time now I use FSDS V2 for creating 3D-Objects and I really like the program. Does anybody know, if there is a chance to use the output of FSDS in SceneGenX? I can export the XML code and also generate an MDL-File.
I know, that this is used for aircrafts but would it be possible to use it for 3D-Objects in sceneries also?

Have no real hope that it is possible but I hate GMAX.

Hi Joerg,

No, the aircraft MDL can not be used as scenery MDL. So that option does not work.

Also the XML code FSDS makes is not in the BGLComp format. But it does contain all information of the object. I have already started on a converter that can transform this exported XML into a scenery MDL object. Only the time is a bit limited, so I do not know when it will be ready.
