X-Plane support

Unfortunately you’ll need to update to 8.2.1520 for this one…
This has a couple of bugs over the 7.1.2 version – all objects will need to be in the same group for export.

Use Ctrl+A to select all objects before running the export plugin.

Hello Paul,
after update to 1520 plugin is installed and available, thanks.

I tried easy object, but I probably something do wrong.
In OverlayEditor is this object indicated as wrong and cannot be placed into scenery.

My sequence was:
Cube,
Scale To 6x10x6,
Face Selection, top face
Shape, Divide selection
Select Center point of top face
Move top to create roof
Material, Primary texture, choose (DDS, 256,256)
Crop texture (yellow side), Apply with PaintTool to all sides of object
Crop texture (red roof), Apply with PaintTool to all sides of roof
Select object
Export XPL8, kostel.obj, (no LOD, keep extension), max visible 0.
Created kostel.obj (and kostel.1.obj?).
Attached is 3DC + DDS and OBJ result.

ahhh – the european decimal delimiter strikes again.

Change all the commas to dots in the OBJ file.

I will fix the exporter to work correctly.

One other comment – try to make the group origin at centre of the object base.

– Select the face under the base and use the Shift Center operation or plugin.

Then change the group position so that Y is zero.

You will notice that there are two obj files.
The second is the un textured face on the underside of the model – you do not need this one.

Here’s the patched version.

Thanks. It is working fine. I have problem with DDS texture, my object is correctly displayed in OverlayEditor (with texture) but XPL writes that texture is not found. Your Rover car is displayed correctly, so this will be problem with my DDS file and/or XPL installation, exporter is working probably fine. I will try it on other XPL installation.

The 3D Crafter version of this exporter is included in my plugins for 8.2.4
