• 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.

FS2004 MDLTweaker II "Error100"

Hi everyone!
It'd be great if someone could help me. I converted a collada dae file, downloaded from the 3d warehouse(or made by Skechup, i also tried it ), with ModelconverterX - to FS9 mdl. So far with no problem. When i try to import it into MDL Tweaker, it drops an error message: "Error100(This is not a valid RIFF scenery MDL file)in procedure
mOpen_Click of Form Form1". The locale and language of my PC are set to english, and "," to ".".
By the way! It's a bit interesting to me, that if i try to reimport this mdl to MCX, get an error in the event log:
"11:13 MDLReader Error The file warehouse_model.mdl is of a non-supported MDL format" and does not open it.
I use Win7 with dotnetfx4, i tried to run these progs in xp-sp3 compatibility mode, but the result is the same. Hope if someone could help me.
Greetings from Hungary
 
Hi,

If both tools can not read the MDL file, I think something might be wrong with the file. Were there any errors when you created it? Else could you attach it, so that I can take a look what is wrong with it.
 
Hi Arno!
I attach the source file, my mdl, and the event log of the whole process. In this case i downloaded the file from the 3d warehouse. Maybe tomorrow i can upload my own model.

Is it possible, that i screwed something in the settings? I tried a lot of times, with other models too.
 
Hi,

It seems that you used the FS2002 MakeMDL, instead of the FS2004 MakeMDL. You need to make sure that ModelConverterX is pointing to the FS2004 version.
 
Thank you very much for your great help! It works fine! I have never succeeded without you. Thank you again, Good Night!
