SceneryDesign.org I have just released a new stable release of scenProc based on the current development release. This means that all changes made since the scenProc 3.0 stable release are now part of the stable release as well. The main differences between scenProc 3.0 and 3.1 are: You can find the download information for the new […]
Prepar3D v6 support
Lockheed Martin has released a new version of Prepar3D, version 6. I have now updates my tools to support this version as well. That means you can select it as active FS version, that it will detect the installation location and that the SDK tools are also found from the Prepar3D v6 SDK. The only […]
scenProc roadmap
Last month we were on vacation and traditionally that means no computer and no programming on FS tools for a while. But of course you always have your brain with so, so vacation is a good month to think about new features for tools and things like that. During the last vacation most thinking-energy went […]
XtoMDL prerequisites
One common issue when trying to compile objects using XtoMDL in ModelConverterX is that XtoMDL can throw very unclear error messages when the XtoMDL tool is missing one of its prerequisites. For example the FSX XtoMDL needs a very specific DirectX version to the installed and different P3D XtoMDL versions depend on different C++ redistributable […]
Improved mipmaps handling
It turned out that for all those years the way ModelConverterX handles the mipmaps of textures was not really correct. So in the last version of ModelConverterX there are a number of changes that improve this. These include: The video below also shows most of these changes.
Building Texture Configuration file format change
In the latest development release I have fixed the bug that textures in the 3D building generation have to be square in size. But while making this fix I also broke the backwards compatibility of old BTC files partly. So prevent such issues in the future I have added a new file format that has […]
Old TFC format is now deprecated
With the latest development release of scenProc that was released today, the old Texture Filter Configuration (TFC) format of the texture filters is deprecated and no longer supported. If you still have a texture filter in the old format you can use the conversion tool that was announced in October to convert it to the […]
Object segmentation and machine learning
I have an early Christmas present for scenProc users, today I have push a new development release of scenProc that contains exciting new features for the texture filter that I have been working on the last months. About half a year ago I start to explore how I could make the vegetation detection in the […]
Texture filter configuration file format changed
The latest development release of scenProc adds a new file format to export the texture filter configuration file to. This new format is called the TF2 format and will replace the TFC format in the future. For now scenProc will support both formats, but I have some changes in development that will give backwards compatibility […]
Processing scenProc scripts in batch
The scenProcBatchRunner tool has been expanded in the latest development release of scenProc. With this tool you can run your scenProc scripts in a batch file, passing different variables to each run of the same script. By using multiple scenProcWorkers you can also speed up the processing of your scripts. And the new Workflow Feeder […]
