• 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,

I have exported 1 Aircraft MDL from Gmax and tried to make a library.
I only get a lot of errors.
My install is the very latest avail for both Gmax as well as Libray Creator. :mad:

Something I do is terribly wrong, please help to pin it down.

The error message box in Library Creator:


D:\DESIGN TOOLS\GMAX\gamepacks\fs2004>C:

C:\>cd "C:\Program\SceneryDesign.org\Library Creator XML"

C:\Program\SceneryDesign.org\Library Creator XML>bglcomp compile.xml

Parsing document: compile.xml

ERROR C2473: Model is not an FS9 scenery model D:\DESIGN TOOLS\GMAX\gamepacks\fs2004\B737-1.mdl
ERROR C2149: Failed to load model data!
ERROR C2340: Failed to finalize MODEL_DATA!
ERROR C2032: XML Parse Error! Element tree follows:

ERROR: >
ERROR:
ERROR C2024: Failed to process closing element tag <ModelData> near line 1!


Parse complete!
 
Your problem is explained in the error message box you've attached:
ERROR C2473: Model is not an FS9 scenery model D:\DESIGN TOOLS\GMAX\gamepacks\fs2004\B737-1.mdl

You can't make scenery object library from aircraft models. If you want to use aircraft as static scenery object export it as "Flightsim scenery object (*.mdl)" instead of "Flightsim aircraft object (*.mdl)" in GMax.
