• 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.

Hi Arno

Having a problem with latest build.
I have already successfully converted many older api files made with with Nova, Novasim and EOD. I continue to use Novasim as I find it easier to handle than say Gmax.
However with the latest build I am finding newly created api's won't convert whereas previously made files will.
I attach a simple box object made today in Novasim. On trying to convert I get an error message saying 'This is an empty object'
I have tried re-installing your program.
I hoped you might test the attached to ascertain whether I have a problem or the latest build has a problem.

Iain

I can confirm the problem, I am going to investigate further where it is.

OK, I found the problem. The optimization worked a bit too good. In the next nightly build the problem should be fixed.

Hi Arno

Okay, I meant to add in my first post that going back by two builds gave no problems with newly created api's.

Hi Martin,

No, it seems those problems have not been solved. I am still looking into them.
