Thank you for your continued support of X-Plane! I’ve never met a 3.5 user before! If you give me your 2.49 .blend files I will use them for the development of the converter, I can’t use them to help fix them. To be honest, I know very little about using XPlane2Blender 2.49. I am approaching this project from a reverse engineering bottom up approach. When I wanted to learn how 2.49 animates things, it was to copy the data into 2.78, and I started by reading the source code – not looking at tutorials or completing projects.

Your files would be much appreciated, and I would appreciate them, but I can’t help debug them. When the converter is completed, you will probably use that to get your planes into 2.79!

(I also edited out your e-mail from your comment. We can see them privately behind the scenes, so there is no reason to put it in a comment for the whole internet to see.)

Met Austin in Italy in 2001 the in Switzerland … then bought a Kitfox aircraft, flew 16 years now, lost medical and sold plane and came back to X-Plane. Have four aircraft made for XP 9 with Blender 2.49 … that I can’t use now because it’s all messed up in the last version of Blender and XP 11.3 I am 70 years old and need help, please. Can I send you my planes with Blender files for mods?
Say hello from me to Austin or Brett Sumpter if you meet them.

Yes! I’ll take it. Send it to me by whatever means comfortable. E-mail and responding to the github bug page have been common.

I also have a bunch of old .blend files, but they can be a bit messy and I don’t exactly remember what they contain. On top of that there may be textures missing.

Would you still be interested?

actually, I found a complex 2.49 file from 2012. I sent it to you via email. Hope this helps. The works on the blender exporter are highly appreciated!
Best regards

No problem. Yeah OSX has been version controlled since day 1, in a hosted SVN repo in the early days, then a private SVN repo, then Google Code SVN and now GitHub for the last few years. Hopefully no more major SCM migrations needed any time soon, I can do without that pain! A niggling worry is there are soft (1GB) and hard (unknown) repo size limits on GitHub and I’m pretty sure OSX is nearing the soft limit. We’ll have to see how that goes…

Wow! Thanks! This will be great. I’ve only used the installer up till now, I didn’t realize you were on Github.
