• 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.

Newb question/help. Opened an FSX AI aircraft into ModelConverterX and exported as P3D mdl. Opened the new P3D mdl in MCX and everything looks and works fine but aircraft will not show up in P3D. Any ideas or suggestions? I can attach the aircraft zip if needed.

Thank you for any help or suggestions!!
 
Make sure you have RemoveScaling set to TRUE in the MCX Options.
 
Thank you for your suggestion, it was already set to True so still no dice. Please let me know if you have any other ideas.

Why would you want to convert an AI aircraft from FSX sdk format to P3Dv2 or P3Dv4 sdk format? Unless you want to enable lua scripting or PBR you do not need the P3D format for P3D, FSX format is just fiine.
Anyway, a possible reason might be the model radius is too big, you can check/fix that in MCX.
 
It was indeed the radius that was the issue. Corrected the parking radius at the gate at it is showing now. Thank you!
