Default Re: Importing Blender files into AC3D

Further X-Plane is extremely sensitive to the object vertex count, i.e., degrading the frame rate. That's why it's important to be able to export an exact duplicate of the Blender object into AC3D.
Try AC3D's optimize vertices and optimize surfaces.
I never get unnecessary geometry added when moving between blender & ac3d.
