mk_mdlc

Hi Guys,

I tried to convert FS2004 model to CFS2 using mk_mdlc V2 on WIN10.
Then it was failed with error message says "this program is for 32bit version and not working for 64bit"

May I ask you guys if anybody knows if there is newer virsion of mk_mdlc for WIN10 or any other program I can use it on WIN 10?

Thanks,

Yuki
 
HOT HOT NEWS!

With some outside help MK MDLC works on Windows again!

Also OldNewExplorerCfg is a live saver. Turned it off for the Lose 10 screenshot. How dose anyone stand the windows Ribbon Bar explorer interface.
 
Really great news Allen, congratulations :applause:
Now the ultimate progress would be to have MDLC and SCASM to work together on recent Wind, many things can do with animations via SCASM

Cheers

View attachment MK_MDLC_DosBox_V2.zip

You need to put the MK_MDLC_DosBox folder in your C: drive, D: drive or F: drive. I programed the DosBox .confs to not care about drive letter but you can not put it into subfolders. You can not put MK_MDLC_DosBox someplace like C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Tools. DosBox will not be able to run right. This is done for your PCs safety per DosBox instructions/warning.

Hello Allen, many thanks for the attachment, but the link is invalid according to the forum browser message.

It didn't worked for me, may be my computer isn't powerfull enough, or my models too big.
On my windows 8.5 config, after a long time, the soft returns "conversion failed"
But the command line works fine, excepted for scasm (/a) where I have a runtime error 204 (?) and a conversion from a .sca file to a .bgl file (/m) returns "this program must be runned under win 32".

Many thanks for your efforts and your will to share your knowleges, Allen
a nice Easter week-end, cheers

No joy here on either Win10 or 11. I noticed most files are blocked in properties settings but unblocking them didn't help. I get the below message if I run mk_mdlc with the DOS window visible on both versions of windows. Running MDLC Command Line.bat works fine though.

Thanks very much Allen but alas no joy for me either. I tried two aircraft models, one FS2002 and the other FS2004. I got "conversion failed" messages. I'm running Windows 7 64 bit.

Looking at the Task Manager, I notice a series of cmd.exe*32 and conhost.exe have been left running.
 
It works for me too on Win 8.5, only the reflective conversion failed with Mk_Mdlc, but worked fine with the command lines.

Many thanks Allen :applause:

A nice easter monday

Good! The prayges worked.

The r/ reflective checkbox works with the test model that is a FS2004 gMax made .mdl.

What command or commands did you have to use on your test model and what model was it?

Hello Allen

I tested two huge models, the west front Caudron R11 and the Re8

Here is what Mk_Mdlc returns on reflective conversion for the Re8 (t'was the same for the caudron):

Mk_Mdlc.jpg

and with the "MDLC Command Line.bat", "IH_Mdlc.exe /r Re8.mds", Re8.mds was done with Mk_Mdlc:

MDLC Command Line.jpg

Hope it can help (buffer width not enough? or time to do it too long?)

and for my scasm problem, command "IH_Mdlc.exe /a Re8.mdl":

Many thanks for your efforts Allen
