SceneryDesign.org The development releases of my tools now support Prepar3D v3. In the rest of this post I will provide the details about what this means for the different tools. ModelConverterX the Convert and Place Object Wizard supports P3D v3 now, so it’s a version you can select to export to. Also the P3D v3 SDK is considered […]
Hierarchy Viewer becomes Hierarchy Editor
The Hierarchy Viewer of ModelConverterX has been renamed to Hierarchy Editor now. As the new name suggests you can now also make changes in this editor. I have added support to change the visibility condition and mouse rectangle of nodes now in this editor. If you click on the name of the currently assigned value, […]
Windows 10
I guess nobody has missed that Microsoft released Windows 10 recently. I have upgraded my development laptop as well and things seem to be running fine. Until now I haven’t encountered conversion issues with any of my tools yet, they all seem to be working fine. ModelConverterX uses OpenGL, so make sure you have the […]
Hierarchy viewer filtering
I have added some extra functionality to the hierarchy viewer of ModelConverterX in the last two days. This feature to allow filtering in all the nodes was on the wishlist for quite a while already and since I needed it to debug an issue I have now finally added it. The filtering can be done […]

Different .NET version
From today the development releases of my tools target a different version of the .NET framework. You’ll need .NET 4.0 from now on for all my tools. So be sure that you have it installed. For scenProc I have used some of the new functionally of .NET 4.0 directly. As a result of the better […]
