• 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.

P3D v4 XToMdl parsing error SlimDX.Direct3D9.Direct3D9Exception

Hi Guys!

I'm having trouble to convert MDL's from 3DS Max using P3D v4 SDK. The X files are exported without a problem, but when I try to convert it with xtomdl.exe I get the following error: SlimDX.Direct3D9.Direct3D9Exception

Strangely if I export a simple box with or without material from 3dsmax it is getting converted without error message. But when I try to export something more complex, or older object I created I cannot convert it.

I'm attaching the X file I'm trying to convert.

Interestingly if I import the model to MCX and export it from there it works fine, but I want to do it without MCX.
I was looking on the forum for similar problems, but could not really find any solution. I've checked all the dependency dll required by SlimDX.dll and copied them next to the SlimDX but no luck.

Anyway how you guys do the conversion to MDL? I'M using a bat file which executes the xtomdl.exe with the paramaters. Anyone using the Export function of the "Export and LOD Tools" from the plugin? (Build MDL file?) I've tried that as well and it won't work.

Thanks a lot!
