that thread that turned to the topic of converting FSX models to CFS2. Seems that someone jumped in and offered or mentioned a tutorial for this at some point. I thought i downloaded that package but i can't locate it at the moment.

i thought that it is impossible to do, i remember some thread sayind that is imposible to convert a FSXmodel to cfs2. but no name of thread.
 
Any Help ?

I found these notes in my archives - not much info, but it may give you an aiming point:

"...Morton/Simonu, There is/may be a way to convert pure native FSX ac.

Using Bill 'Lionheart' Ortis conversion technique which basically removes the FS9 polygon limit from the compilation process, along with a large number of processes and tweaks, you can convert from native FSX to Fs9. (I have his pdf guide if anyone wants it)

Now once a functioning Fs9 model it may/should be possible to convert to CFS2?
Something to fiddle with during the long winter months..............

I know this is a very nice freebie, but a great and easy conversion is ol' Alphasim's DH100Vampire, if you haven't that already..."

And here's the PDF File... --> View attachment 66321
 
Thanks SC...that's confirmation for what i found earlier today in my archives. I was thinking on the subject, asked around the membership here and later found that same pdf in my modeling folder and couldn't remember why or when it got there. Curiosity got the better as i started reading through it for relevance to the subject of CFS2 conversions. It's quite vague in terms of dealing directly with my interest, so i wasn't 100% sure that this was the item i was looking for. So thanks again for connecting the dots.
