• 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 all,
After exporting from blender as gltf, the roof of my model is going walk about. I've applied all transformations and modifiers, so not too sure why.

Thanks.

Hi Mamu, all transformations have been applied.. It exports fine as DAE or FBX, it is only having issues exporting gltf using the blender2msfs.

Cheers.

make sure of it :) ,
in your screenshot i can see the origin point of an object not at 0,0 (orange dot near the stairs)
in the attached screen you can see where the origin point of an object should go when the transformation have been applied
in the N panel you can see scale 1, location 0,0,0 rotation 0,0,0 , that's you goal, or you will likely see object shifting in the game

You could try to export as DAE or FBX or OBJ, then re-import that to Blender. That may fix your mesh. Of course you'd need to fix the MSFS materials afterwards. Why not attach a .blend file of the mesh, and we can look at it instead of guessing?

I've applied the location again, the origin point has flown off to the side, I can't seem to get it back into place. The location has gone to 0,0,0 though.

Hi Dick, I've attatched a stripped down version of the blend here, thank you. :)

I'm assuming this was a straight glTF export (non-MSFS). I see you have several objects as a scene, rather than discrete objects. Most sims work better placing discrete objects rather than a scene. Is this for MSFS, P3D, FSX?

Would that be all the objects joined with CTRL-J? This is my first blender project so very new with the terminology.
It is for MSFS.
Thanks :)
 
I fixed the immediate problem, which is the roof. I loaded the .blend file.
Shift-C aligns the cursor to 0,0,0
I selected the roof, then Object menu, Set Origin, Origin to 3D cursor.
I then press A to select all objects, then Object Menu, Apply, All Transforms to Deltas. (This resets the locations relative to the origin).
Now the roof is where it belongs.
