  • A too powerful tool?

    A tool like ModelConverterX is very powerful in converting objects between different formats. But the fact that it can read BGL or MDL files as well also means it becomes relatively easy to import the work of somebody else into GMax and modify it to your needs. This gives some tension, on one hand you...

  • Packing stuff can be fun

    Over the last days, I have been busy packing my stuff for the upcomming moving. Although that is a lot of work of course, and my house is full of boxes at the moment, it can also have a fun part.

  • Good old scanner

You know, such a thing that was used before we had digital cameras to get a photo onto the computer as a digital file. I think I bought this one about 10 years ago, when I had loads of photos I wanted to scan...

  • Early christmas present

    Most of you have probably already seen this, but MS has released an update to the FsX SDK. You can get it from the FsInsider download page. Probably the most important component of this update is the GMax gamepack for FsX, this allows us to make models from GMax in the new MDL format. One warning, as...

  • I can't see more gates anymore

    Finally I have the time again to make a more serious blog post here. You might be wondering what I have been up to lately? It has been mainly the NL2000 scenery project that kept me busy. We are currently finishing the beta version of our next release and for the scenery of Schiphol airport I had promised...

The subject...

  • Live Meeting

    While chatting with Nick today, we were looking for an easy way to show each other what we were doing on screen. For example to describe a bug or explain how we would like a feature to be.
