SceneryDesign.org Remember that ugly picture I posted a few days ago of the API macro I had read into ModelConverterX? Today I did some work to let it also read in the colors and textures used and after that I must say that it already looks a lot more like the museum building it is supposed […]
COLLADA
For the new model conversion tool I am working on at the moment, I took a closer look at the COLLADA format this weekend.

Slooooooooow compilation
In my last blog post I mentioned that the new [FwTools] version had solved most of the problems I had with my markings compiler. That is true, but it also turned out that the speed of the compiler had not improved. Let me take the center lines of Schiphol airport as an example. I finally […]
