Hi all I am dipping my toes into xplane scenry design having spent 20 years with Microsoft and Gmax. I am finding it all a bit daunting especially as I have created various libraries with over 100 objects. Converting them to work with xplane is daunting. I am at the moment looking at sketch up, I have downloaded the plug in files to convert to xplane and have placed them in my plugins folder. i have then created a simple box, the instuctions then say `Choose File → Export X-Plane Object', I have no such choice, anyone know where I have gone wrong. Cheer. Neil

Thanks for the advice, but gmax can't export as .obj,at least mine doesn't. It seems the only way is to convert the existing scenery using as you say is to use fsx2xplane. Will 3dsmax import gmax files does anyone know? Regards. Neil

Anybody got a spare £3000 for 3ds? regards. Neil

Hi, I am just begging designing scenery for x-plane and I have extensive libraries created with gmax for FSX. How do I go about converting them so I can use them in overlay editor? Thanks. Neil
