• 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,sorry if wrong thread but new to FSDeveloper

The problem i am having is 3DSmax related in converting files.

I use PandaX to convert 3DS.files to X.files.

Then when i try to make the MDLfile the following happens.

http://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=7335&stc=1&d=1271937548

What i get is two files called
steelframe notepad which is empty
steelframe_0.ASM which has 0 bytes

The MDL maker seems to stop half way through when it gets to GenerateBGL.
No MDL appears,is there a size limit for coverting.

many thanks.

Hi,

How complex is your object (or how big is your X file)? For a very complex object it can take many minutes to create the MDL file with MakeMDL.
 
Arno you are a star,started it off went to make coffee came back and it was done....simple advice is always the best very appreciated.:)
