I like to think about such things a bit before erasing software in case there is something else I need to save first so I will probably wait untill tomorrow for the reinstall. ac files and the current contents of the plugins folder to a dvd before doing an uninstall. The tools/HeirarchyView works normally there so I will reinstall my working copy with a fresh download from the invis site. I have ac3d on my desktop as well so that I can try forum suggestions and things I may find on google to get this working. In the tools menu dropdown I tried to open HeirarchyView and the drop down list has disappeared. I have the most recent version shipped of X-Plane 9 andthe ac3d is a download of the version from 3 weeks ago as is the X-Plane plugin which came from the laminar research website so they should all be of the same vintage. They are XPLN.dll (200KB), and XPWidgets.dll (112KB) hoping that one of them is actuall the commands.txt file even though the file extension id. There are two files in the X-Plane resources folder which I copied to the ac3d plugins folder. I searched that copy and also did not find commands.txt. That copy is also installed under a different program name. I bought a second copy of X-Plane a while ago when I thought my problem might be related to the X-Plane software. I searched with windows search and also opened every folder in X-Plane and couldn't find a commands.txt file. I don't seem to have a commands.txt file in the X-Plane resourced/pluginsįolder. The question is how do I get the plug in to display the X-Plane x-refs? Then I clicked the make rotation line in the X-Plane dropdown menu, then clicked the Xplane object properties and got no list of x-refs to choose from as shown in the online videos. I named all the objects and did the heirarchy groupings for animation. from Rhino V4 as 3ds and saved that as an. The computer is a Heulet Packard 3.4Ghz intel with 4Gb 1300 mhz ram and a 1Gb nvidia ge force 9800 video card. I also added the Xplanesupport.tcl folder (58kb) and the latest X-plane data refs.txt (348kb) in the plugins folder with the xplanessupportWin.p folder (922 kb) In addition there are an additional 44 files generated by this one plug in residing in the folder. X-Plane plug in for ac3d from the laminar research site and installed it in theĪC3D plugins folder.
Hello group, I recently purchased ac3d after a five minute trial from the demo version packaged with X-Plane 9, real impressive software.
