SceneryDesign.org With the release of FsX coming closer now, I think it is time to give a little bit of information about how my tools will (or will not) work together with this new version.

ObPlacer XML and Rwy12 object libraries
After the release of EZ-Scenery, I have made a few posts on this blog about the object library mania that occured back then.

Tool updating time
It was last friday that I had a nice chat with Nick once again (had been some time ago) and in the process we came to talk about MDL Tweaker as well. It seemed that Nick had not seen the latest beta version of that tool yet, so while chatting Nick started to test this […]
