hi guys, I have little faith in the xplane forum for finding answers on this topic...its awfully messy in its structure. it would be good if I could find recent and technically up to date wiki on this topic. I have just installed blender 2.63 and have xplane10 demo. I have downloaded io_xplanetoblender script and installed it to what I think is the right directory. in blender I am able to export to xplane, however there is no "xplane obj" import option in the file menu in blender. I have read that the import function was not available earlier this year...is that still the case??? surely there must be a solution to this by now...any ideas???

Follow this link for a rather convoluted way of getting it to work.... http://forum.avsim.n...actually-works/

 

Unfortunately there is no simple answer. Good Luck

Its all sorted

 

I am able to move x-plane.obj files between planemaker and blender 2.65 fairly easily using the x-plane2blender python script. I also use AC3D as an intermediate program between the two.
