SceneryDesign.org With FSX MS shipped a tool that allows you to place objects (and design mission), the Object Placement Tool (OPT). But because the interface is not really easy to use, alternative placement tools have appear, as they also did in FS2004. For FS2004 you had for example Rwy12, EZ-Scenery or ObPlacer XML. Now for FSX […]
Merry Christmas!
Christmas is almost there, so I would like to take this opertunity to wish you all a Merry Christmas. Of course I will spend the Christmas days with my family, but for the rest this time of year is a good opportunity to catch up with some of the things I want to do for […]
(Finally) another ModelConverterX update
It has been much too long ago that I wrote about the ModelConverterX tool. Or actually it was also much too long ago that I programmed on the tool. But since last week I have been making some progress again. That is partly because I have a little more time now that all the travelling […]
Little update from abroad
As you can see I do have internet access while on travel for my work at the moment. Yesterday we arrived on our destination and today we had a sort of free day to rest from the travelling and enjoy the surrounding landscape a bit. So together with my collegue we drove around in the […]
See you in two weeks
My vacation is now really getting near. Tomorrow morning I will have to leave very early to get to Schiphol and fly to Malaga, Spain. I am really looking forward to get cycling again in an area that is not so extremely flat as the Dutch polder landscape I live in. I have also been […]
Vacation is getting nearer
It is Thursday morning now and I don’t have to work, that’s a nice feeling. Or maybe I should say I am not sitting in the office, as there is some hard work ahead. I’ll have to try to pack all my stuff for my vacation that starts this Monday. I am going to Andalusia […]
Looking for some bughunters
I have posted the first alpha version of the ModelConverterX tool on the forum. So if you still own some old API macros, if you are not scared of a tool that might not work 100% percent of the time and if you like to help me in hunting down some more bugs, please check […]
ModelConverterX forum opened
I have just added a forum for the ModelConverterX tool to the [FsDeveloper] site. Please also check the post where I explained the ideas behind this tool and what you can expect in the first alpha release. And if you don’t mind I’ll go back to the coding now, so that this alpha release will […]
ModelConverterX update
Remember the Starfighter screenshot in my previous ModelConverterX post? (If not, please scroll down a little bit). It had some nice pink wheels and a bright green canopy. This evening I have been able to fix these bugs and also export this old API static as a FsX MDL file and place it in FsX. […]
ModelConverterX progress report
After spending most of my spare time on the upcoming FsDeveloper update in the last two weeks, I was able to get some work done on the ModelConverterX tool again this evening. In my last update on this tool, I mentioned that the code to read the API macros needed some more work and that […]
