TGI format - IPACS Proprietary?

whitav8 · March 7, 2017 at 6:52 PM

@IPACS,
If the various 3D model editing applications (like Blender) other than 3DStudioMax and AC3D want to be able to develop a plugin to output TGI format, we would of course want to know the details of the format and maybe have access to the source code for the AC3D or MAX plugin. Is that information and source code proprietary?

Thanks

Dave

The source code for the plugins is probably "top secret".
I'd rather ask for a Blender plugin directly.

Regards,

We are currently in contact with a developer over at FSDeveloper to see if we can send him source code or a DLL so he can read/write to our generic TGI format. Please be patient for a little more.

Thanks for connecting up with fsdeveloper.com . Perhaps they can generate a TGI plugin for Blender

Please don't forget about AC3D.

donamy,
Not sure about your comment - AC3D already has a TGI plugin from the SDK. The reason I am interested in Blender is because it is used a lot by FSX modelers and it is free.
