how does one convert fs5.1plane to gmax datapoints

Postby John_Murphy » Thu Sep 14, 2006 11:44 pm

I have a near perfect model of the plane I learned to fly w/my late dad, but it's in FS5.1 Aircraft Designer (unpainted, but with a pretty good VC (something that a lot of people said was impossible for FS5).  Unfortunately, I'm a slow learner, so, by the time I got the plane as good as I could, FS98, 2000, 2K2 and 2K4 were out.  I'd like to rebuild this plane for FS2K4/FSx.  Could someone assist here?  Thanks.

If you have the source file - (..afx), send it to me.

Basically, what I do is bring it into VAS-Gold 1, whicih has a good afx importer, convert it to FSDS (fsc) format and from there, convert it to dxf, and import into gmax.

What about aircraft made with "flight sim flight shop", by "BAO simulation products"?
