Hello

could some one please tell me where i should set my export path in gmax and where should i export to?I'm trying to Export a Aircraft

In addition to what Felix just said you will also need to make do certain things to the aircraft.cfg file in order for the visual model to appear in FS. There is a tutorial that gives detailed information about the related dynamics files [aircraft.cfg and myaircraft.air files]. I believe it is in the tutorial section of SimV.

Yes katahu i have been haveing problems with that i put my aircraft in fs9 aircraft and when i open flight sim and choose my aircraft it has an error the error says visual model could not be displayed then when i click on close on the error message it closes flight sim. i read in aircraft container sdk it says that error is a error in loading the mdl file

get inside your model folder... open model.cfg (notepad) you got to put it

"model=(your MDL FILE NAME HERE)"

Do this to the files and be aware that the files are case-sensitive:

example:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9\Aircraft\Place_Name_Here\

Sub folders and files of Place_Name_Here:

Model folder
--->Place_Name_Here.mdl
--->Model.cfg --->[models]
                           normal=Place_Name_Here

Outside of model folder:
--->Place_Name_Here.air
--->Aircraft.cfg--->[fltsim.0]
                            title=Place Whatever Name Here Paint 01
                            sim=Place_Name_Here
                            ui_manufacturer=Whatever Company
                            ui_type=Whatever Type of Aircraft
                            ui_variation=Variation of the aircraft

That is as simple as I can put it. From there, the headaches begin.

From there, the headaches begin...
