SceneryDesign.org Yes, I am still updating this blog. We are back from vacation for one and a half week already, but I haven’t had the time yet to write on this blog. I guess me writing about bad news just before the vacation was not such a good idea either, because the vacation also started with […]
Video tutorials on Wiki working again
Today we found out that during the server move a few weeks ago, the video tutorials on the FSDeveloper Wiki got broken. They were no longer playing or available for download. It was just a tiny server setting that disallowed the video format, but that has been fixed now. So the video tutorials are available […]
Some bad news and some good news (and some more bad news)
Let me start with the bad news, I have decided to stop the development of gPoly for the moment. It seems developing two tools, ModelConverterX and gPoly, at the same time does not work that well. I don’t have enough time available to turn gPoly into a stable and usable tool at the moment. Maybe in the […]
Convert Wizard update
I have released an update of the ModelConverterX Convert Wizard functionality. The main changes are: There is now also an option to combine textures while converting, thereby reducing the amount of drawcalls Before starting the conversion the wizard now checks if all compilers (like BGLComp and XtoMDL) can be found. If not the user will […]

It has been suggested multiple times that it would make sense to integrate Library Creator XML and ModelConverterX into one tool. I agree that this would make sense, but I would like to have your thoughts on how the combined tool should ideally work. So do you have some thoughts on this, please let me […]
FSDeveloper server move – status update 3
By now the domain name is pointing to the new server. So the move is done. It might take a little while before the updated reaches you though. So if you still get the “offline message” of the forum you are still pointing to the old server. Please be patient until the update reaches you.
FSDeveloper server move – status update 2
A little update about the server now. The databases and other content (like attachments) have been migrated successfully. We have performed a test on the new server and everything seems to be working fine. So the next step is to point the domain to the new server and update the DNS. We are currently working on […]
FSDeveloper server move – status update 1
Just a quick update on the FSDeveloper server now. I have just closed down the forum and will start migrating the database and other content to the new server. I’ll keep you updated on the progress through this blog.
FSDeveloper down in two hours
Just a quick reminder that we will start with our work to move the FSDeveloper site to another server in two hours. During the work the site will not be available. We expect to finish the move in a few hours.
ModelConverterX Convert Wizard
Today I have added a new feature to the ModelConverterX development release, the convert wizard. This function makes it even easier to convert and place an object into Flight Simulator. I have added this feature mainly with the novice developer in mind. Somebody who just wants to add a few objects to Flight Simulator. Even […]
