Video tutorial: place xref objects in AC3D

Thanks again!.

Cheers, Ed

Well i got half the result i hoped for. I managed to export the obj group and convert without error, but only the static aircraft showed up. No buildings. I'll have to wait for the final video about exporting.

I think that the xrefs are localized. When I try to place a building from the xref it does not show up neither, but the log gives a hint that this building might be only available in the USA:

198.71-tmterrain_object: register xref 'xref_ch' -> lonlat_min(4.00,44.50) lonlat_max(12.00,48.00)

198.86-tmterrain_object: register xref 'xref_usa' -> lonlat_min(-125.00,24.00) lonlat_max(-50.00,50.00)

198.97-tmterrain_object: register xref 'xref_usa_airport' -> lonlat_min(-125.00,24.00) lonlat_max(-50.00,50.00)

That is my interpretation of the log, so should be taken with a pinch of salt!

Interesting.

In an earlier thread I reported not being able to get any xref objects to show up in the UK. Someone posted a followup message about lonlat min and max settings but I've not had chance to follow it up yet

See an eventual solution in this post.
