This is not something to be taken lightly. At the same time, I have been steadily migrating the project from AC3D to Blender. Unless you are trying to add PBR textures to an older aircraft that does not have it, there is not really an advantage to using something like Substance Painter for repaints. In earlier posts, I described how acquiring more original manuals, as well as more visits to real aircraft, had enabled me to increase accuracy and detail. While it is possible, it is not always practical, as many normal texture details are baked from the source 3D objects that you will not have access to.

Repainting existing aircraft in Substance suggests that you want to reverse engineer existing 3D objects (of which the IP may be copyrighted if it is payware). (But try the new AC3D X-Plane plugin version 3.0 - with UI to edit all X-Plane properties, does it matter anymore whether OBJ8 files are easy to read We now have a real UI for editing X-Plane specific properties.) In the case of file formats my concern was extensibility. So for PBR you only have a diffuse and normal texture file. We create the ultimate simulation experience with the lastest and fastest computers, realistic input devices and surround display systems. Also keep in mind that PBR formats are different in X-Plane than in other game engines the metallic and roughness gets combined somehow, and it stored in the alpha channel of the normal texture. X-Force Custom Gaming Computers X-Plane Partner. World Heritage Encyclopedia, the aggregation of the largest online encyclopedias available, and the most definitive. There is a video that one of the X-Plane devs did a while back regarding Blender/Substance/X-Plane workflow. If you are talking about importing OBJ8 format into Blender that is not currently supported. obj file such as X-Plane which are not suppor to be compatible with Wavefront Obj file. Currently I have X-Plane 10.51 and X-Plane 11 Beta2 installed. obj8 file to use in building scenery objects. STL export from PM I have found that to reliably import into Blender. So I could use the X-Plane plugin for AC3D to create an X-Plane. It depends on what you mean with 'from X-Plane to Blender'? If you just want to export your flight model 3D object you created in Planemaker to Blender, then use the.
