No keyframes

Hello

Still working on my Zlin Trener I got one ( and many other   ) problem. First time I exported it to FSX, everything goes fine. But now I decided to export the same MAX model to FS9 from MAX9 via the following steps :
1. Export to Pandasoft X format
2. Pick X file into MakeMDL and convert it to MDL.

It works fine, but in FS2004 the key-framed parts don't moving, only the stock-animated.  

What do I wrong?

Have you read  the FS.9 SDK??

There might be a different way of exporting for FS.9

there can be in one hundred possibilities having only one problem /(one in a hundred this is not easy so I'm going to start asking you

1) have you Configure well the Pandasoft Plugin right before you click  exporting of the pandasoft window, that it need to be set properly?

2)Make sure you are exporting the X from the Pandasoft plugin and Not the OTHER X from XToMdl.exe.. It will be two exporting X and they are two diferent things


3)there is one pandasoft for max 6 and 7 (both uses the same) that is in the web that doesn't work,you have to make sure to find the one that works properly..

let me know

Thanks Alrot !

1) I use the following settings on the Pandasoft window ( I mean these options are check-boxed) :

On 3DS Max objects tab:
Mesh definition
Materials
Include animation
Geometric
Mesh normals
Mapping coordinates
Vertex colors

On Animation tab:
Position,Scale & Rotate
Key Frames
Sampling Rate 30

On X-file settings tab
Text
Sub frame hierarchy
Left Handed Axis
Include animation options - Open / Linear

On the animation tab theres is a window for listing added animations. I don't there should be anim definiation or not, both I tride both options without succes.


2) There is no other X plugin installed, only Pandasoft's

3) I'm using MAX9. I downloaded the plugin which does NOT require the DirectX SDK from this source :
