1. I have a few older model payware aircraft that automatically have a cargo loader, (captainsim 757, and skysim md 10 and 11) and stairs appear and go to work as soon as I open the doors. Now that I purchased fsdreamteam gsx I want this to stop. 2. Also i have a cargo plane that i dont know what on the keyboard will open the main cargo door. Using model converter by scruffy duck i found the main door has animation and is capable of opening i just dont know how. Any help would be awesome.
Stopping animation?

Hi,
First, ModelConverterX (MCX) is written by Arno, not scruffyduck.
1. If this is FSX or later, you can Import the aircraft into MCX, find the part in the Hierarchy Editor, and check out what the animation name is. Then in the Animation Editor select that animation, move the slider to place the object into it's desired position (if needed), and Fix the Animation. Then Export it again.
2. In the Hierarchy Editor, click on SceneGraphNodes until you find the door turn red (check the Highlight Selected box) Look at the Animation section on the right, and it should specify what controls it. The animation may be in that SceneGraphNode, or in a part below that.
Hope this helps,

Ok thanks for informing me of that.I have model converter x version 3.1.21.0. That did not work.
Ok you are right I have 1.3 . But where do I get version 1.4.0.0 then? The 3.1.2.1 was and is AI Aircraft editor.net. This one is the only one I can actually bring the aircraft up in the model viewer. In model converter version 1.3 I don't know which folder to click on to bring the aircraft up. I have tried all of them in the aircraft folder including the CFG file.
Ok I finally found which file to click on to see the aircraft.
Ok an update on this. I stopped the animation of my stairs and loaders by making the paint of each clear or opaque. I still can get my cargo door to open. Shift e or shift e +2,3,4 does not work. Can anyone help.

Import the plane into ModelConverterX.
Confirm that the cargo door opens and closes when you move the animation slider.
Open the Hierarchy editor and make sure the Highlight Selected box is checked.
Click on the parts until the cargo door lights up red.
If composed of many parts, find the one at the top of the group that has an Animation section.
What is the name of the animation? That tells you what will open the door.

Ok i did all what you said and the animation said custom_anim_D10DOORFB_19. It doesn't specify what will open the door.
