so you can export them into makemdl? I built the p=38 and added landing gear and propellers and I would like to test my creation in FS. Gmax will not let me export the files and makemdl only uses X fliles.
Now I have gotten myself all confused, and I loaded the sample dash 8 and I couldn't even export that. I put all of the flightsim files and plugins into the gmax directory, and it still doesn't work. HELP.
Thanks

I'm not sure what you mean about X files. ???
To create an FS aircraft click File/Export & select Flightsim MDL File (*.MDL)
Please tell me if that fixed it.

export gives me the choice of .bgl to convert. I figured out how to convert into makemdl, but the objects are coming out as scenery not aircraft. I know there is some easy step i am missing. thanks

2awa1057:
If he has a .bgl option for export it means that he already has a fsmodelexp.dle installed.
Do as Grumpy says-if you have option for bgl export it must be mdl option there,just list it down...
