Here is a list of all the cars I will be making (in order from top to bottom).

1. Mercedes SL600 (currently)
2. A corvette stingray (forgot what the year was for this car)
3. 1999 Jeep Cherokee (for the off-road users)
4. ????

99 Wrangler? How about an 03 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. Now that'd be awesome.

I've been trying to look for an Excel program that can allow me type in the measure from GMAX so that it can convert it into a format for the Aircraft.cfg file.

It's not really a program, it's actually an M$ Excel file.

I can't seem to find it.

Can you people provide a link to this file?

I need it for setting the contacts for the Mercedes. It's also for an aircraft that has been left unfinished (I have not forgotten Project Have Blue).

A double decker london bus would be nice (I could even help there, I travel on them nearly every day) or a Ferrari F1

I'm having a problem, guys.

I found the M$ Excel file (Touchpoints01) that enables me to set the contacts for the model.

However, the Excel file can only support an aircraft with 3 wheels (The Mercedes model has 4 wheels).

It seems that I have no choice but to resort to using that old program that came with FS2002pro (FSEdit).

Another problem:

It seems that the Makemdl program is having a problem making the virtual cockpit of the model.

This is how it started:

1. I select the 2 grouped models (exterior and interior).
2. I click Export Selected in the File menu.
3. I use Windows Explorer to search for a file that says Mercedes_SL600_interior. I then rename it to Mercedes_SL600_interior.x
4. I export it as an aircraft model.

Now comes the confusing part.

Instead of compiling the files into a *.mdl file, Makemdl freezes. Then a series of text files pop out of nowhere.

One of those files tells me that a program called AutoDSB (can't remember the exact spelling) was used.

It then tells me that I should NOT edit something by hand and advices me to re-run the program instead.

WHAT IS UP WITH THIS?????????????????????

How do I avoid this??????

I am now asking for someone to provide me some textures or at least photo images (for me to edit into BMP files) of the car's interior (or at least the exterior).
