This is a problem that have to be try over and over ,first you need to have in your pC administrator rights , VISTA gives problem ,I also have windows 7 which is in my son's computer I test it there ,I did have to make couple changes but at the end it work in windows 7 ,I don't know in VISTA this is another example

Please change this ,go to "Send to" right click on the shortcut ,I change from 9 to 7 in the 3DSM7 and see


%windir%\system32\cmd.exe /K E:"\FSX_SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Modeling SDK\3DSM7\Plugins\xtomdl.exe" /XANIM /DICT:E:"\FSX_SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Modeling SDK\bin\modeldef.XML" > buildlog.txt

sorry alex..still cant get the correct path....when i try to type in the exact path in the target path...%windir%\system32\cmd.exe /K M:\Program Files\Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Modeling SDK\3DSM9\Plugins\xtomdl.exe /XANIM /DICT:M:\Program FILES \Microsoft Flight Simulator X SDK\SDK\Environment Kit\Modeling SDK\bin\modeldef.XML" > buildlog.txt ....it becomes too long and it loses the bit FILES

All I can say this is the only way and its has been the only way all the 3d max 7,8,9, designers are been working with Bill's method ,there's got to be something keep watching ,and read other forums ,reading and looking that's what I did back in 2004 when it was fs9-sdk and then came FSX-SDK and by asking and reading all around was the way I could fix it ,I export models from gmax and 3d max ,right now I have the VC from and old 717 I made and I'm using 3d max 7 and gmax at the same time ,My latest Citation X was made in Max 7

[learjunkie]
