export as an x file, use makemdl directly on the x file.

Felix,

Even if he does manage to produce the needed X file it’s not possible to use MakeMDL to export back to FS98 like he wants.

woops - I didn't read the FS98 part.

The net answer is:

No. FS98 (and CFS1) used an earlier model format. 3rd party aircraft were done by using Flight Shop or AF99 (both out of print) or (in later stages) AD2000 (also out of print)

With all the limitations that the FS98 model format had, I doubt that any max model could be made that "simple"
