Thumbnail Exporter exception

[gaab 111]

Hello Oliver,

I was getting an exception "filename invalid" (on Fsx) I was not able to track down.

Recently I have added few boats (on P3D) which recreated that exception. The number of added boats was small enough to decide to track down which boat was guilty 🙂

The root case is in a model.cfg file with a comment (always these comments ...)

[models]
normal=fremm_force0.mdl			// pour un bateau stable ou immobile

Deleting the comment solve the problem !!!

Thanks for this very usefull utility I use VERY regularly.

Regards - Gérard

Hello Gérard,

many thanks for the tip! I didn't think that there could be comments in there, but I will see what I can do.

Best regards

Hello Gérard,

I have updated the ThumbnailExporter to 1.20. The issue with the comments in the model.cfg should be fixed, and I have added an option to sort the report alphabetically.

Best regards
