• 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 everyone,

I am trying to get a simple cube moving inside MSFS. In blender everything works fine and I can get the cube into MSFS, but it does not move.

I have tried couple of variants with the xml file, but nothing helped.

Here are my XML variants:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ModelInfo guid="{094eff33-aa55-4e09-8817-b29fbfb21fdc}" version="1.1">
<Animation name="CubeAction" guid="0dd9c1e4-0594-476e-ac5a-10bd62d82b55" type="Standard" typeParam="Autoplay"/>
<LODS>
<LOD minSize="0" ModelFile="CubeRotate.gltf"/>
</LODS>
</ModelInfo>
Click to expand...

or
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ModelInfo guid="{094eff33-aa55-4e09-8817-b29fbfb21fdc}" version="1.1">
<LODS>
<LOD minSize="0" ModelFile="CubeRotate.gltf">
<Animation name="CubeAction" guid="0dd9c1e4-0594-476e-ac5a-10bd62d82b55" type="Standard" typeParam="Autoplay"/>
</LOD>
</LODS>
</ModelInfo>
Click to expand...

or
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ModelInfo guid="{094eff33-aa55-4e09-8817-b29fbfb21fdc}" version="1.1">
<Animation name="CubeAction_Cube.001" guid="0dd9c1e4-0594-476e-ac5a-10bd62d82b55" type="Standard" typeParam="Autoplay"/>
</ModelInfo>

or

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ModelInfo guid="{094eff33-aa55-4e09-8817-b29fbfb21fdc}" version="1.1">
<Animation name="CubeAction" guid="0dd9c1e4-0594-476e-ac5a-10bd62d82b55" type="Standard" typeParam="Autoplay"/>
</ModelInfo>

Any Idea what I am doing wrong. This is how it looks in Blender:

The animation problem was on the NLA track. You had a blank animation, while your true animation hadn't been pushed down. I pushed down the animation, and deleted the blank one. Attached is the glTF and a .blend file.

amazing -thank you so much. I somehow missed that with NLA track and was concentrating on the XML file...
