Unions

You could say that recently unions have played a role in my life. First there has been my wedding one and a half week ago of course, forming a nice union between me and my wife. But that is not what I want to talk about in this blog post. I have also...

Announcing a new "project"

During the last weeks I did not write much on this blog. This was partly because of some travelling and also because of a new "project" I have been busy with. This project is not so compatible with FSX, or any other version of Flight Simulator...

AVSIM

I am sure this is old news to almost everybody already, but still it is too important to not mention it. When I came back from Brussels and opened my mailbox yesterday I read the shocking news that the Avsim website has been hacked and is completely gone...

FSX material settings

Over the last days I have been working on extending the material settings supported by ModelConverterX. I have now come to the point that all of the specific settings that you can make with a FlightSimX material can be edited with ModelConverterX as welll...

Public transport

First, sorry for this rant, but at the moment I am just to annoyed by it. Since a few moments the public transport company of Amsterdam already decided to make it more difficult for me to get to work. They are renovating some stations, including the one...

Back from vacation, but...

I am back from vacation now for almost a week, but today I finally had the time to get up to date with all the posts on the FSDeveloper forum. This was partly because I had to go to Paris on bussiness trip two days this week and also because there were...

Levels of detail

You might already have noticed that last weekend I released a new update for ModelConverterX . It contains just some small, but important bug fixes for the version 0.50 release. So with those annoying bugs gone, I have started to concentrate on the next...

User interface and manuals

It's already some days ago that I wrote that the next version of ModelConverterX is almost ready. One reason for the delay is that I got a cold this week and that reduced the amount of time I would like to spend behind the screen a bit. But another...
