Latest AC3D X-Plane plugin - download here

Does the plugin support LIGHT_SPILL_CUSTOM elements?

I am finding that they are not appearing as lights after import, while other lights such as LIGHT_PARAM and LIGHT_NAMED are importing fine.

Linux plugin now available - see first message.

Thanks to Ray Hill for this document which describes how to build 3D cockpits for X-Plane using AC3D: http://www.inivis.com/external/xplan...3Dcockpits.pdf

Hello I have a question, I use AC3D V8.0, does the latest plugin support it, Or I should only use the corresponding plugin, with the version I have?.

[Andy]

AC3D 8.0 was 32 bit and AC3D switched to 64 bit at 8.3.


For AC3D 8.0 you'll need to use 3.3b3 (32 bit), which is on the first page of this thread.

This has been updated to work with AC3D 9. Please let me know of any problems.

I do not have AC3D 9 so can't tell you at the moment, but I wanted to ask if support of this plugin is planned also for XP12 and onward? It would be great

[Andy]

Yes, hopefully.
