It does not contain a virus either…this is a genuine import/export issue between x-plane 10 and blender 2.6.Įssentially, the fastest way to create aircraft is to use x-planes own software called planemaker to build the basic model then export to blender for high detail stuff. Sketchup is another free package but the UI is a lot simpler.
Blender is a free package that is very robust, but the UI is very intimidating (especially to the novice). A downside to it is that the plugin interface with X-Plane is not as well maintained.

AC3D - 3D Software - View, Edit and Design great 3D graphics with ease. Scenery development is a great way to get into X-Plane add-on development. These constants cannot be changed - they match mirror constants inside the C plugin changing them will probably cause hard crashes. AC3D is a popular 3D object/scene modeller available for Linux, Windows 95/NT. I am trying to find a simple way of getting x-plane 10 models into blender 2.6.
